September Letters - Finding Strength and Connection in Sharing Our Stories

Összefoglaló

An inspirational collection of letters, notes, and conversations among friends, celebrities, experts, and the September Letters community, to help us clearly see that we are not alone, and that sharing your story is powerful and healing. When Brittany Snow was a teenager, she read an article about a woman's hardship that made her feel seen and less alone. She carried that article in her back pocket for a long time. This experience was a gift that the actress and activist paid forward when she revealed her struggle to a writer who featured Brittany's story in an article. Brittany's honesty resonated with a young reader, who later shared this with Brittany when the two serendipitously crossed paths and the reader was carrying Brittany's article in her back pocket. This ongoing circle of hope found in others' stories revealed to Brittany a truth: We are all more alike than we realize. In September Letters, Brittany Snow and close friend, co-founder Jaspre Guest, show us how sharing our stories can reveal to us our ultimate connection. Featuring a collection of original letters and notes from Kid Cudi, Maria Menounos, Hannah Bronfman, Lily Cornell Silver, Maddie Ziegler, and more, alongside interviews with mental health experts like David Kessler, Gretchen Rubin, Mark Epstein, Jay Shetty, and Wendy Suzuki, September Letters opens the conversation around what it means to be human. Organized by emotional experience, from joy and love to grief and loss, each chapter showcases the wide range of human expression and experience. Equal parts guide and resource, September Letters is for anyone seeking to feel more connected?with themselves and others. The book you hold is meant to be dog-eared and highlighted, to give you a place to put your story. This supportive book makes clear why putting your story into words is profound?whether it's a long letter you may or may not intend to send, a daily affirmation, or a journal entry. A symbolic pocket at the back of the book, inspired by Brittany's story, holds space for your story, too.
