Quintessence (ePub)

Coco Bijou lives life fully and with an insatiable curiosity. Through sheer will and determination, inspiration and magic, grace and experience, pain and joy, mistake and triumph, she has experienced an epiphany: when we live life with an open mind and heart, we become ourselves and shape our destiny. Here, she shares her journey with others, in the hopes of inspiring them to life-changing epiphanies of their own.

As a young person, she started to keep journals and filled them with her poetry, stories and dreams. Once a sporadic writer, she has now amassed a huge library of these journals. Through wild detours, interruptions, trauma and joy, she kept writing. In her life, she has met some incredible people who inspired many of the memories and lessons she shares here. Through the people we meet, she says, we have the opportunity to create an incredible array of experiences and to craft an inspired life.

In this candid confessional, she ruminates on aspects of her personality, important relationships, powerful stances shes taken and falls she has survived. Within each story is a lesson, a laugh or a thought-provoking moment. These are her memoirs, told in story and verse. She shares some tales that may inspire a giggle, a gleeful laugh or even a moment of personal discovery. For Coco Bijou, life is a magnificent journey, and she is inspired by every wonderful moment.
