No one hands you a manual for being a woman. Instead, you figure it out through almost-relationships, quiet resentment, people you outgrow, and versions of yourself you have to unlearn.
This book puts words to the things you felt but couldn’t explain, the patterns you stayed in too long and the moments you knew better but hoped anyway.
It’s not a guide to being a woman, but the clarity you wish you had earlier. Because you don’t become her by trying harder, you become her by breaking the pattern.
