Tumbled

A powerful collection of memories about codependency, budding sexuality, abuse, abandonment, introspection, and the need for a new identity. 

By the time Heather Wilde turned 37, the pieces of her life had crumbled. Relationships were shards of glass cutting from all angles. Her parents. Her friendships. Her ex-husband.

Leaving her abusive marriage was a necessary step, but feelings of unworthiness and codependency had her stuck living a miserable life.

Tossed and tumbled in her destructive cycle of relationships, body image issues, and feelings of being a victim kept catapulting her backward into the waves of unhappiness.

She took a long, hard look into the mirror and gazed at the common denominator: herself. She got trauma-therapy tattoos and shared a dance with her inner child. Then, it was time to start a new chapter.

Wilde uses her acquired fearlessness to share personal and unflinching stories about the moments that sent her tumbling and the self-awareness needed to break out of the bleak cycles. Tumbled powerfully captures the terrors, learnings, and joys of one young woman struggling to live a perfectly acceptable life.
