Overview

In Junkyard Rhetoric: Stella's Story, meet Stella Bernard-a 32-year-old therapist with a knack for piecing together the fragments of others' lives while her own remains an unsolved puzzle. Stella is the epitome of a strong, resilient professional, adept at guiding her clients through the murky waters of psychological trauma. Yet, beneath her polished exterior lies a woman who feels disconnected from her own narrative, a character adrift in the stories she helps others craft. She is a living paradox-full of empathy for her clients, yet devoid of self-awareness when it comes to her own needs and desires. Stella's life is a dichotomy of clarity and chaos. Her work is her sanctuary, a place where she can lose herself in the therapeutic process and momentarily forget the emptiness that shadows her personal life. While she's a master at illuminating pathways for others, she remains in the dark about her own journey. Single and uninterested in the trappings of romance, Stella pours her heart into her clients' narratives, leaving little room for her own self-discovery. Her passion for others' stories is palpable, yet her own story remains unwritten-a testament to her disassociation and reluctance to introspect. As Stella delves deeper into her clients' psyches, she inadvertently begins to unravel the threads of her own past. In a world where she's everything to everyone, Stella must confront the challenge of becoming something to herself. The junkyard she often likens her life to becomes a metaphorical battleground where she must confront the rhetoric she's spun for herself over the years. With her keen understanding of psychology, will she finally turn her therapeutic insight inward and piece together the life she's been too afraid to live? Junkyard Rhetoric: Stella's Story is a poignant exploration of selfdiscovery and the courage it takes to step out of the shadows of others' lives and into the light of one's own. It's a compelling narrative that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt like a bystander in their own life, waiting for the moment to finally become the protagonist of their own story. Stella's journey is an invitation to embrace the messy, beautiful complexity of life and to find one's voice amidst the chaos.
