A chance encounter in the park changes everything. Sarah, a psychologist, meets Penelope, a little girl navigating a world that hasn't been kind. As their lives intertwine, Sarah discovers echoes of her own childhood in Penelope's laughter, her sadness, and her courage. A story about healing, connection, and the fragile threads that tie our past and present together.

Note: ✨ As part of my therapy journey, I decided to start writing a book. It's a mix of real-life memories and events blended with a fictional storyline .. so while pieces are inspired by my experiences/ memories, the story itself isn't fully based on true events. Writing has been both fun and deeply therapeutic for me, and I've been using ChatGPT to help with the editing along the way.

I more or less know where I'd like the story to go, but since this is my very first attempt at writing a book, I'd love your feedback so I can adapt and grow my chapters as I go. 🥰All Rights Reserved
