Light Finds Joy: A Poetic Memoir

Everyone has a story. Mine just happens to be poetic.Can a book of poetry truly reflect the span of a whole life? For Joy Eshleman, these pages are a deeply personal, clinical, and faith-filled answer - an attempt to find the rhythm within every memory and transition, one verse at a time.A licensed clinical counselor and integrationist, Joy has spent her career navigating the terrains of grief, trauma, and life transitions alongside her clients. In this memoir, she turns that lens inward. Moving from her roots in the Midwest to a new chapter in New York's Hudson River Valley, Joy invites us into the raw, transitional spaces of her journey.Here, poetry is more that an art form; it is her therapeutic companion - a vital tool used to process and metabolize the complexities of life as they unfold. By pairing clinical competence with faith-based refection, Joy offers an authentic and resonant map of the human experience. She invites readers to witness a life integrated - where every story, no matter how varied or challenging, has the potential to become poetry.
