We forget to love and cherish the woman that god made us. We excuse everyone else's mistakes and behavior, but our own. So when our friends gain weight, we tell them they still look beautiful, but how often do we tell ourselves that we're beautiful?

Sharing her personal story, she opens up about meeting her first husband during high school and the emotional struggles that followed. With a tender and relatable tone, Michelle speaks to those who find themselves deeply affected by the pain of others, often feeling overwhelmed by their loved one's addiction.
