Join Elizabeth's Bookshop & Writing Centre for a virtual author talk between Rachel Cargle and Nicole Walters about her new book, Nothing is Missing.
NOTHING IS MISSING is a riveting, unputdownable story of what it takes to show up for yourself and the joy that can come once you do. Raised in a home where food was unstable and anger was the norm, Nicole learned early that she needed to take charge of her own safety and security. So she did. She got into an elite private school by talking to a stranger in her dad’s cab; she strategized her way onto Wheel of Fortune to pay for college; she adopted three girls after meeting their panhandling mother; she quit her job to launch her own business; and she struggled.
Hustling endlessly to achieve society’s definition of success left her exhausted, compromising her own sense of worth in order to accommodate others. Nicole worked herself straight into a health crisis that threatened her life and the family she had worked so hard to build. It was not until she was forced into a major reckoning in both her business and her marriage that she realized she was already enough, that she had enough and was everything that she needed. In Nothing is Missing, Nicole contemplates how she was able to create the life she wanted using the strength she had within herself all along. Full of amazing takeaways on business, parenting, community, mental health, and happiness, it ultimately shows that life is going to be hard and good and we have to find happiness in each season. Nicole encourages the reader to know that what you have within you is enough – no matter what you face.
