6: When a Book Throws Itself Into Your Life (Charli’s Story)
Manage episode 503176927 series 2319822
⚠️ Content Warning: This episode includes discussion of trauma, religious abuse, sexual assault, sex trafficking, suicide, and domestic violence. Please take care while listening.
In this powerful conversation, Cindy sits down with Charli—clarity coach, meditation teacher, and recovering perfectionist—to talk about the book that quite literally fell into their life at just the right moment: Elizabeth Gilbert’s Eat, Pray, Love (affiliate link).
Charli shares how:
* A childhood of homelessness, trauma, and religious pain shaped their early years.
* A Barnes & Noble accident (and one very insistent book) shifted their spiritual path.
* Reading Eat, Pray, Love (affiliate link) gave them permission to define spirituality and agency for themselves.
* Meeting Liz Gilbert years later led to a life-altering moment of truth-telling with their family.
* Creativity and art remain vital tools for processing emotions, healing, and staying grounded.
This episode touches on resilience, survival, and the way art meets us at exactly the right time—even when we resist it.
