Overview
"How many times have you taken a look at your life and thought these words? ""Things have got to change."" Well, Beth had said them before, but when she opened her eyes in the ICU, paralyzed from the neck down and facing a tremendous fight to regain very basic functions, she knew she finally meant them. Her story is one of resilience: in the face of disease, life's unexpected curves, and a journey that veers off the track. With total honesty and refreshing humor, Beth reflects on the checklist-style life she'd been living and conquering. Career. Husband. Kids. House in the suburbs. But then her body tells her in no uncertain terms that it's time to slow down and take a hard look at what she has... and what she really wants. In sharing her own deeply personal experiences, Beth introduces us to the tools and philosophies she has developed along the way and now uses in her therapy practice. This is the story of a courageous comeback that is really a breakthrough to living an authentic life on your own terms."

Reviews
Beth's style is real and authentic. It's like reading a book written by a friend, with incredible insight, guidance, and an understanding of what it takes to be authentic . I love this quote! It wasn't that I missed a stitch, it was I was reading someone else's pattern. A well written story that weaves her personal life into lessons for how to live the life you want to live, not the one you are supposed to live. Dan Weinstein, Psy.D. In resilience road, Beth Koritz has written a book that inspires the courage to find your inner strength to get you through all of the challenges that life presents. Your authentic self may be buried beneath fear and a lack of compassion, but she shows you how to take off those layers of debris to find the self that has the resilience to get you through it all. Elyse Resch, MS, RDN, CEDRD-S, FAND Author of The Intuitive Eating Workbook for Teens Co-author of Intuitive Eating and The Intuitive Eating Workbook What an inspiring read! Most people would have collapsed under the pressure of even a fraction of the obstacles Beth has experienced during her life, but not Beth. She has used her life experiences to learn how to be fiercely resilient and true to her authentic self. Most beautifully, she has set out a series of guidelines to help the reader do the same. I look forward to using this book personally and professionally. It is a true gift! Rabbi Janine C. Schloss
