"When Lisa Olivera was just a few hours old, she was abandoned behind a rock near Muir Woods in Northern California. She was found by a man and a woman who were out bird-watching with their toddler. Two days later, she was adopted. Growing up, she knew she was adopted. She later discovered she was abandoned. She often wondered about her birthmother, and why her birthmother abandoned her in the woods. Without any answers, Lisa came up with her own: she was not enough as she was. This story wasn't true, but it made sense of a confusing experience. It allowed her to move forward--it felt like the only way. If you, like Lisa, have ever felt like you weren't lovable, or you didn't belong, or like you weren't enough exactly as you are--you are telling yourself the wrong story"--Publisher marketing.
