Hi friends!
I’ve just finished the first draft of my latest book called, Empowered Legs: A Guide to Lipedema Advocacy and Awareness.
This book is really, really good at taking a big picture look of all the ways our collective community can work to make change, find treatments, and get insurance approval. However, at the beginning of the book, I have a tell-all story about why I personally am an advocate. Only a very small handful of people on earth know what happened, but I’m deciding to share now.
My story should fire. you. up. If it doesn’t, read it again.
The draft chapter is below. If you want to jump right to my heartbreaking story, jump to the page numbered 17.
DRAFT Excerpt from Empowered Legs – Career Copyright Susan O’Hara 2023
The book will be going to editing in the next week or so, so it’ll be available for pre-orders in January. For now, sit back, grab yourself something strong to drink and check out that chapter.
Feel free to share amongst the lipedema groups you’re a member of. I don’t think I can share it since it’s technically promoting a future book.
Stay strong, be mad. Get stuff done.
Susan
