Deep Within the Mirror: Reflections of a Life of Setbacks and Comebacks

There is a reason you were drawn to this book. Maybe you feel dissatisfied with your career or your relationships. Maybe you've lost a loved one, or you're dealing with health challenges. Maybe you're just getting through the day, but you know-you feel certain-that there is more to this thing called life. In Deep Within the Mirror, Linda De Vellis details her own life's hardships-losing her mother at a young age, divorce, single motherhood, financial scarcity, breast cancer, heartbreak-and how she found the strength and drive to become the happy, successful, empowered person she is today. Tender, wise, and uplifting, Deep Within the Mirror is both an intimate memoir and a user-friendly guide to a more meaningful and purposeful life. De Vellis asks us to take a long, hard look within and be honest about what we find there. In clear-eyed prose, she offers tools and encouragement to transform obstacles into learning experiences, find a greater sense of purpose, honor grief and heartbreak, make peace with our bodies, and move from a foundation of self-love so that no matter what setbacks we encounter, we can always come back to ourselves.
