Publisher's Summary
Her son is left behind in a store by her husband. Again, and again. What is Heidi Esther gonna do to fix her husband this time? She desperately tries to go back to the bliss of ignorance in her perfect suburban marriage. But, with a new bestie, her pastor, and an unexpected coworker at her side, she comes face-to-face with what she’s left behind. And what she discovers about herself and her life leave her awake, breathless, surrounded by Kleenex, and learning from trees. While still on new, crunchy ground, what Heidi Esther becomes is much more valuable than any attached two-and-a-half car garage.
For Cryin’ Out Loud, is a Jen-Sincero-meets-Melody-Beattie-style journey into self-awareness intertwined with humorous and provocative poetry that tries to metaphorically answer the question "how many licks does it take to get to the center of the Tootsie Roll © pop"?
For Cryin’ Out Loud has something for everyone! Passion, abandonment, despair, joy, therapy, and Swedish Meatballs. If you’re looking for an entertaining and heartwarming present-day journey on mindfulness, and self-worth, Heidi Esther is your best new non-preachy mom friend. Comes with freebies sure to delight and surprise every listener.
Coming summer 2022 is her companion self-help workbook: Peeling Your Onion, which takes the listener through their own journey to joy in four simple, playful, powerful exercises.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
What the critics say
"For Cryin out Loud will make you laugh out loud. It's the funniest book I've read in ages. I must say it's sorely needed for that quality alone. Yet its message is profound. It handles the tough stuff - from depression to divorce, from codependency to sexual identity. The author has a light-hearted voice, a fast-paced, crystal-clear writing style, and a relatable story, especially if you're a mom in the trenches. (And aren't we all)? We're all on the bumpy journey to finding ourselves and a better world. Why not travel together with Heidi as our guide? If you want to find yourself and your joy midst all the mind clutter, pick up this short, witty debut memoir." (Kathryn Brown Ramsperger award-winning author, humanitarian journalist, intuitive book coach, and mom - shoresofoursouls.com)
