35 stories. Seven colours. Many moments that may feel familiar.
I didn't write this book to tell you how to live your life. I wrote it because sometimes a story can make us see something in ourselves that advice cannot. The stories in Paint Your Own Rainbow are fictional. But the emotions are real.
Someone who has spent years trying to live up to an idea of who they should be.
A person who knows they need to say something, but keeps putting it off.
A relationship where too much has been left unsaid.
A woman who keeps putting herself last.
A successful life that doesn't feel quite as fulfilling as it looks.
And the moment when someone finally realises that waiting is also a choice. You may recognise yourself in one of them. You may recognise someone you know. Or perhaps a part of yourself you hadn't thought about for a while.
Courage and Strength
Joy and Creativity
Hope and Optimism
Growth and Renewal
Trust and Authentic Communication
Wisdom and Self-Awareness
Purpose, Transformation and Legacy
Five stories sit within each colour, bringing together 35 different moments, choices and emotions.
Each story ends with a PYOR Insight and a question.
Not a lesson. Not a test. Just something to sit with.
You may agree with it. You may not. You may answer the question immediately, come back to it later, or simply let it stay with you.
Sometimes a question stays with us long after we have closed the book.
