Dear Shannon Algeo,

Thank you for taking the time to go to grad school, make this your thesis, and then make your thesis into this timely book.

Hold Nothing

The power is in your hands.

the belief that you have to be “healed” to do what you wanna do is the biggest lie ever.

doing what you wanna do IS the healing.
