About the Book
How many times have you said “I'm fine” when you weren't? How many times have you held it together for everyone else while something inside you quietly crumbled?
The Quiet Roar is for the woman who has been pretending for so long, she's forgotten what honesty feels like. It's for the woman who is exhausted by her own performance of okayness.
Written with raw honesty and deep compassion, Louise Budgen's debut book takes you on a journey from the familiar numbness of “keeping it together” to the quietly powerful place of living truthfully. This is not a book of quick fixes. It is an invitation to stop, look inward, and begin again — this time, as yourself.
“The breaking point is often the birthing point.”
— Louise Budgen
