Summary
You know that feeling of almost fitting in? You're close enough to be included, but you never quite belong. And so you tell yourself you're better off alone, because at least then, no one can leave you.
In Eating Nails for Breakfast, Chrissy Liu traces the pattern she's carried since childhood. From the neighborhood pool where she was always the tag-along, through bad relationships, to the losses that just kept coming, Chrissy earned praise for never breaking.
She wore it like armor, and it didn't fully protect her.
Now watching her daughter navigate the world, Chrissy is asking what she's passing down:
- What did performing strength instead of feeling grief cost her?
- Why didn't walking away first protect her from loneliness?
- Did she never belong, or did she just never let herself?
This is an audiobook for women who've spent their lives on the outside looking in. It's for anyone who's been praised for not breaking and wondered what would happen if they finally did.
