It Wasn’t Supposed To Be Like This: Embracing The Path You’re On When It Wasn’t The Path You Thought You’d Be On
It wasn't supposed to be like this... but, what if it was?
Sometimes we think we know exactly where we're going to end up in life. We try to plan out every detail of what it will look like, who we'll be with, and where we'll end up. We find safety and security in knowing how things will be. But, what happens when life doesn't end up that way? What happens when everything you saw is suddenly gone and you're left to start on a new path you never saw yourself being on?
I never saw myself starting over like this. I never thought I'd be in my mid-thirties, going through a divorce, and moving into a rental condo with my toddler. I never thought I'd spend over a year of my life healing and mourning the life I thought I would have. This wasn't the plan. It wasn't anything like the future I had daydreamed about in my head. But at some point I realized that maybe that was a good thing. Maybe I wasn't meant to have that life I always thought I wanted. Maybe there was something bigger and more for me.
This book is for every woman that’s found themselves at a place in life that they never thought they’d be in. It can be heartbreaking to grieve the life you saw for yourself and your future. But, I'm here to show you that it is possible to heal, accept, and even fall in love with a new path. It's possible to get to a place where you can be grateful for it all. And I’m welcoming you into my own emotional journey I went on to get there, every step of the way.

I definitely don't get what the bad reviews are about. This is clearly a memoir style book, relatable for single moms going through divorce but I'm neither of those things and felt like I was really relating to her struggles. Her descriptions are great, I really felt it as I was reading it. I also loved a few key phrases I'm utilizing in my own life now. It can be a bit repetitive but a lot of self-help memoirs are.

Won’t lie it took me a min to finish this. I’m a mood reader so I had to be in the mood for it. A lot of times I was pretty depressed and while I’m not getting a divorce. However, if your grieving any aspect of your life, you’ll find something to take away from it.

This book was not ready to be out there. There’s no story here. There are about 25 + “I� statements per page. There’s no narrative it’s just a bunch of vague innuendos. There is no journey here.
