She did this despite believing that change equaled death ever since her beloved father died when she was eight. (Much to her shock, change did not equal death.) She shows us it is never too late to begin again, or to let go of stories like: \u003ci\u003eI don't deserve this; I don't get to be happy; no one will love me; I'm too old\u003c\/i\u003e, to name a few. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough this book, you'll quiet your \u003ci\u003eInner Asshole\u003c\/i\u003e, participate in the cathartic process of \u003ci\u003eShame Loss\u003c\/i\u003e, ignore the \u003ci\u003eImaginary Time Gods\u003c\/i\u003e, use creativity as a portal into healing and connection, and become your own permission slip. Complete with takeaways in Jen's signature style, creativity prompts, and poetry, \u003ci\u003eProof of Life\u003c\/i\u003e is funny, inspiring, and full of love. This book is a reminder that your birthright is not stress or shame and that you don't have to show proof that you are worthy or deserving. You are your own proof of life.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJennifer Pastiloff\u003c\/b\u003e trots the globe as a public speaker and to host her retreats to Italy, as well as her one-of-a-kind workshops, which she has taught to thousands of people all over the world.
