""I highly recommend Pamela's new book. The depth of her insights are both profound and hard won.Travel with her and find new language for old emotions, misplaced, drowned out, forgotten, but not lost. The gifts are still here for each of us."" Renée Smith, Founder, A Human Workplace ""...this book is so powerful and so needed...multiple times while reading, I paused to truly process the magnitude and relevance of Pamela's words...resonated very personally with me...the essays are quite rich and wonderfully dense..."" high school students' comments
