Description

"We invite you to write the story of the next day of your life and the last day of your life-also known as the best story in the whole wide world. Why? Because it's yours.

As yourself." -Rebecca Walker & Lily Diamond What's Your Story? is an effective tool for transformation: an interactive journal for anyone who longs to bring a new story to life-if only they could figure out what it is.
