ACT II: Disturbing the Edges: Love, Loss, And Liberation Paperback – March 20, 2026

Therapists often remind us that grief is not reserved for death alone. We grieve roles, identities, and seasons of life. In midlife, as children leave home, careers shift, and loved ones pass on, these losses quietly stack—asking not to be fixed, but to be honored.Carol eloquently honors these major life events through her words, creating a mirror in which any reader can recognize themselves. She asks the hard questions she has been forced to confront and answer—about identity, loss, love, and change—while allowing space for pause, breath, and listening. Through intentional rest, Carol creates the conditions necessary to reflect honestly, receive insight, and move through grief without urgency or performance.Disturbing the Edges is a testament to Carol’s strength, one rooted not in endurance alone, but in discernment. Her resilience is founded on a bed of honesty, trust, vulnerability, and transparency—each strand laced with cultural memory and ancestral wisdom. Rest becomes both a grounding practice and a generative force, preserving her energy and spirit as she processes loss, reclaims meaning, and chooses how to move forward.Ultimately, Disturbing the Edges is a companion for women in transition, offering permission to grieve and to rest—reminding us that the next chapter is shaped not by urgency, but by reflection, intention, and the courage to listen.
