I WROTE A BOOK!
A real book. Me. I’m an author!
Becoming an author was something I have wanted to accomplish my whole life, but I always planned on writing a children’s book (I still want that to happen).
I never imagined before this past year that I would write a non-fiction book. Now it’s done and for sale and I am so incredibly proud of myself.

Now I’ll break down the book, so you know exactly what you get when you buy the book.
Who is this book for?
Clearly, this book is targeted to people with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. However, only a small portion of the book is specific to IBD. Most of the content applies to anyone living with a chronic or autoimmune condition, since the there are many common threads among autoimmune diseases.
Who will benefit the most from this book?
People newly diagnosed with IBD will benefit the most from this book. If you or a loved one recently received an IBD diagnosis and are struggling, whether with the physical, emotional, or mental aspects of this illness, this book is for you. However, anyone struggling to maintain their physical or mental health with IBD will also benefit.
What’s actually in the book?
- There are 11 chapters (plus an introduction and conclusion). Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of life or health that you need to think about when you have IBD. The introduction is all about my story and motivation for writing the book.
- I include additional blurbs about my own journey with IBD in some chapters.
- A bonus page in the back with a URL that houses some freebies and the link to the companion FB group!
- There are contributions from four other autoimmune warriors sharing their own insight on IBD, including Sarah, My Mindful Table, Jamie, Sweetened by Nature, Ali, Empowered Autoimmune, and Courtney, The Thrive Effect.
Did you say “bonuses”?
I included 7 resources in the form of PDF’s. These include checklists and forms you can fill in, that I believe are helpful when you have Crohn’s or colitis. There is also a short video from me! There is also a companion Facebook group that I encourage all readers to join!
Available in paperback & Kindle
If you are like me and still enjoy reading physical books or if you are not like me at all and would rather read on a Kindle, then you will be happy! You can purchase either version on Amazon. Check out the Amazon page for a peek inside the book!
What else?
This book is an affordable resource to get you in the right mindset to heal. This book would also make a thoughtful gift for a friend, relative, or co-worker going through the diagnosis period.
Any questions?
Leave your questions in the comments! Have you read the book and got something out of it? I would be eternally grateful if you left a rating and review on Amazon. When books have more ratings and reviews, it tells Amazon that this is a trusted book and it is more likely to be shown to people looking for it. Let me know if you leave a review; I’d like to personally thank you for all of your support!
