Welcome to the heart of Change the Face of Depression. These are more than books—they're hands-on, soul-fueled tools created to support you through your healing, growing, and reconnecting journey. Whether you're navigating depression, rediscovering your self-worth, or just looking for a little light in the dark—these tools were made for you.

Part handbook, part lifeline—this guidebook is your practical, no-fluff companion for understanding mental health in real, human terms. Filled with grounding tools, reflection prompts, and resource lists, it offers clarity and comfort for anyone struggling to name what they’re going through. Built to empower, not overwhelm, this book is your reminder: healing doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to be yours.
This is the softer side of the storm—the place you go to feel, process, and rebuild. Come Back to Me is a guided emotional reset: equal parts shadow work, soul journaling, and sacred reflection. It gently leads you inward through creative prompts, deep questions, and energy check-ins so you can reconnect with the version of you that’s been waiting patiently to come home.
Change the Face of Depression: A Guidebook to Mental Health
Come Back to Me: A Soul Homework Journey
Healing is human work.
These are your tools.
These aren’t self-help books that sit on a shelf. These are interactive, bold, healing resources made by someone who’s walked the path and turned pain into purpose. Start anywhere. Color a page. Answer one question. Cry, laugh, scribble, or breathe—it all counts.
Your Journey Deserves Tools That Speak Your Language
