Ivy’s life is a swirl of turbulence and change. It’s been almost a year since her sweet momma has died. Bottled up feelings tear her apart inside. Grandma wants to take her little dog away. Her BFFs pressure her to change. The cutest boy in school has a crush on her.

“It’s the universe, Ivy Leigh, welcoming in a little change.” Mr. Winters, her neighbor, a wannabe cowboy, tells her one day. But change is so confusing. When a pair of bullies taunt her on the bus and tease her at school, Ivy makes a giant mistake.

With a mix of humor and poignant moments and a quirky cast of neighbors and friends, Ivy finds a way to understand herself and make up for that mistake she’s made. Best of all, Ivy remembers Momma: Feelings are like fireflies caught in a jar, Ivy Leigh. They belong in the open, where a warm breeze can carry them away!

11 Personal Essays about Overcoming Trauma

Psychology Nonfiction
Date Published: February 3rd, 2026

Women Therapists on Healing is a powerful anthology of personal essays from women therapists who know trauma from the inside out. This three-part collection braids lived experience with clinical wisdom, offering a compassionate lens on healing that crosses cultural, generational, and systemic boundaries.


Far beyond a typical guide to PTSD, this book challenges outdated narratives and sheds light on the effects of marginalized topics, such as chronic invisible illness, intergenerational trauma, racism, ritual abuse, and human trafficking.


This book will especially resonate with


●    women recovering from trauma

●    healers and advocates seeking growth and guidance

●    health professionals committed to trauma-informed and anti-racist practices

●    friends and family who love and support survivors


The diverse voices in these essays honor the arduous path of healing as a reckoning, a reclamation, and a sacred reminder that we do not walk alone.

The New Life Blueprint

A 21st-Century Guide for Success, Health, Wealth, and Happiness in a Complex World

Life is coming at us fast. It’s easier with a guide for life navigation.


The world has changed more in the last few years than in the previous fifty, rendering our traditional blueprints for life, work, and success outdated. Strategies that once promised a clear path to the American Dream, like pursuing a conventional education or climbing the company ladder, no longer guarantee continual progress toward our goals. Many of us find ourselves unprepared and uncertain, struggling to adapt to the accelerating pace of change. In this new era, the questions arise: what are the key drivers of success and sustainability? How can we navigate this complex world effectively?

The New Life Blueprint: A 21st Century Guide to Success, Health, Wealth, and Happiness in a Complex World by best-selling author Dr. Natalia Peart, with Christopher Burge, offers an insightful approach to navigating life more holistically and sustainably in our rapidly changing world.

Traditionally, success was a straightforward formula: get a degree, land a job, work hard, and enjoy the rewards. In The New Life Blueprint, Peart and Burge first examine the historical, contextual, and personal shifts that have made this old blueprint outdated. They make the case compellingly that this blueprint, which currently guides our educational, career, and life choices, was designed for a simpler, more predictable era but no longer applies in our new, more complex era.

They respond to this challenge by reinventing the old blueprint into a modern-era career, mental, financial, and lifestyle blueprint. Their new roadmap provides readers with the instructions and guidance they need to equip and prepare themselves to navigate their professional and personal lives, build resilience in constant uncertainty, and achieve the sustainable success, health, wealth, and happiness they seek.

Drawing on 14 disciplines, including neuroscience, economics, and performance psychology, as well as decades of experience as a psychologist, CEO, leadership and performance consultant, and Wall Street executive, the authors bring a wealth of knowledge to the table.

This book is not just about survival; it’s about flourishing in a world where change is the only constant. The New Life Blueprint not only captures the urgency and necessity for a redefined approach to living in a complex world but also provides a hopeful vision for thriving with confidence and clarity.
