In her memoir, Jessica Slice recounts her life-altering transformation following a single day in Greece, which plunged her into a world of illness, disability, and medical gaslighting.
The book explores how she moved from feeling grief and shame about her conditions to fierce self-advocacy.
Slice shares insights into how embracing her limitations paradoxically led to a deeper, richer experience of life.
She argues that including diverse bodies and minds makes every institution, every part of life, and every relationship better.
Ultimately, the book redefines what it means to live a good life by challenging societal norms and biases.
