“Launching, Landing, Moving Forward is a small book about changes in life and how to navigate difficult seasons successfully. You will find short stories and lessons learned through travel, spiritual practice, and making music. I’ve included lots of practical steps for further emotional growth and mental health, with clear bullet points and examples. We cannot avoid many of life’s difficulties, but we can learn skills to make things a little easier.
