Have you ever looked in the mirror and wondered where you went?If you've spent years showing up for everyone but yourself-if your dreams have gone quiet, your joy feels distant, and your spirit is running on empty-this book is for you.
The Quiet Return: A Journey Back to Herself is a heartfelt blend of storytelling and soul-searching, following the journey of Maya, a Black woman who's tired of being strong all the time, of being everything for everyone, and is finally ready to be someone for herself.
This isn't about hustle, perfection, or fixing yourself.
It's about remembering the woman you were before the world told you who to be, and giving her permission to rise.
Inside, you'll find:
- Why so many women lose themselves in roles, expectations, and silence
- Raw truths about identity, motherhood, sacrifice, and rediscovery
- What it really means to be strong-and why softness is part of it
- What it looks like to rewrite your story-without guilt or apology
- Powerful reflection prompts at the end of every chapter
- A 30-day gentle reset plan to help guide your own quiet return
The Quiet Return is your reminder that you're not alone. Your story matters.
You are allowed to rest. To feel. To choose yourself.
You don't need permission to reclaim your life.
You just need the courage to begin.
