As women, it’s easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Between work, family, and balancing all of our responsibilities, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and anxious.

“I see you
Even though you feel like no-one can”.
These are the opening words of my book. I chose these words with intention. Because sometimes we can feel like no one sees us.
