Written with strength, vulnerability, and a true desire to share her truth, Choose You First: One Woman’s Journey Through Pain, Resilience, and Hard-Won Healing—A Powerful Reminder that Your Story is Far from Over by Michelle Bishop is part profound memoir and part a transformative manual for anyone looking to empower themselves, learn to embrace self-love and live a more liberating joyful life.
Michelle Bishop was raised with hardship. She grew up alongside pain, fear, and turmoil while her mom struggled with her own mental health. From a very early age, Michelle’s sense of worth was minimized on a constant basis through physical, emotional, and verbal abuse. Michelle learned to create her own inner sanctum both to protect herself and to shield herself from the constant uncertainty of her surroundings. A few key experiences throughout Michelle’s life created the strong woman she is today—a life-changing moment of certainty that she was where she needed to be, and getting launched into adulthood without warning really shaped the strong, independent woman Michelle speaks of in her writing. These experiences—both large and small—help shape the rest of Michelle’s message—we all have the ability to control or change our lives.
Michelle’s writing is full of astonishing, meaningful and inspirational lived experiences. She speaks with an authority of a woman who’s self-made, but also with the compassion of a woman who knows pain. Reading her work feels like a nice walk out with a friend—it feels supportive and encouraging, but also full of truth and sometimes with the firm push we all need at times. I loved that in all the content Michelle offered with many examples and scenarios, nothing felt judging or disrespectful. Every one of her points was carefully selected, well-thought out, and well-executed. I have read several personal transformation books, looking for a voice that understands and has the wisdom, life experience and tools and advice to bring on that real change I have been searching for. I’m glad I discovered this book and gave it a shot. I believe every person would profit from reading this book and gaining insight into themselves and the people around them. I especially feel that we all can benefit from remembering that we have the power to choose our own lives and the people we allow into them.
Written with the voice of knowing, Michelle Bishop has created a mentor text for anyone struggling to remember or trying to discover their worth. Her book Choose You First, is a testament to the strength of the human character and the power of our daily choices. Her writing is easy to follow and approachable for young adults and adults alike. If you are seeking life-altering liberation, Choose You First is a heartfelt, must-read for thirsty individuals who need to learn how easy it really is to grab their inner power and embrace self-love.
With a toolbox of strategies and support, you’ll love this book! I couldn’t put it down from the first page to the last. This is a book you’ll return to again and again! Book read and reviewed by Mary Rosenthal for Chick Lit Book Café -Multi-Genres Literary Reviews.
