The Only Way Through Is Out

Suzette Mullen had been raised to play it safe–and she hated causing others pain. With college and law degrees, a kind and successful husband, two thriving adult sons, and an ocean-view vacation home, she lived a life many people would envy. But beneath the happy facade was a woman who watched her friends walk boldly through their lives and wondered what was holding her back from doing the same. Digging into her past, Suzette uncovered a deeply buried truth: she’d been in love with her best friend–a woman–for nearly two decades–and still was. Leaning into these “”unspeakable”” feelings would put Suzette’s identity, relationships, and life of privilege at risk–but taking this leap might be her only chance to feel fully alive. As Suzette opened herself up to new possibilities, an unexpected visit to a new city helped her discover who she was meant to be. Introspective, bittersweet, and empowering, The Only Way Through Is Out is both a coming-out and coming-of-age story, as well as a call to action for every human who is longing to live authentically but is afraid of the cost. —- ISBN: 9780299345501 | ISBN10: 0299345505 | ISBN-13: 978-0299345501
