More Than One Way: Poems and Reflections on Early Motherhood

More Than One Way is a tender, unfiltered collection of poems and reflections exploring the beauty, confusion, grief, and transformation of early motherhood.With honesty, humor, and compassion, Courtney Perry invites readers into the complex and often unspoken layers of parenting- the postpartum fog, the impossible choices, the body that no longer feels like home, and the small moments that lead to profound realizations.These pages offer comfort, recognition, and the reminder that there is no one right way to mother, to heal, to love, to bond, and to become."Courtney shares big emotions without fluff. She offers deep, intimate, painful experiences without asking for sympathy, and captures the most beautiful joy imaginable. This collection took me on a tour of emotions in the best way possible. Sharing the hard moments, especially around postpartum depression, is going to make this world a safer place. I hope these words find their way to as many parents as possible." -Stephanie L.
