Diamond Lotus Stefanie Baranowski

Stefanie Baranowski thought she had it all: the house, the dog, the engagement ring-two engagement rings. She had everything on the outside that society tells us, as women, we need in order to feel purposeful and happy. But on the inside, she became consumed with feelings of regret, being stuck, and succumbing to a loss of self the longer she stayed committed to the life of what she thought was happily ever after.

An inspiring and thought-provoking memoir of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery, Diamond Lotus is about what can happen when you risk letting go of societal ideals and diving into the journey of the self through the self to find what truly makes you feel purposeful and happy. A touching story that is sure to resonate with anyone who has ever imagined a life beyond the conventional.
