About Our Author
Tembi Locke
A widowed, single mom and 40-something actress, Locke took a brave leap toward rebuilding and re-imagining her life on the other side of loss. Her first book, The New York Times bestseller From Scratch was a radical act of reclaiming, both her story and her understanding of her creative power. Now a screenwriter, producer and a self-proclaimed “bravery sparker,” she shares how to embrace the unfinished parts of our own lives and dreams and to step into the life that is waiting for us.
Her steps show us that, after loss, we can:
- Dream our deepest dreams
- Cultivate curiosity about new first steps
- Elevate hope
- Honor the gifts found in difficult situations
- Explore how ritual can aid in renewal
- Brainstorm what brings us joy
- Recognize when we are getting better
- Celebrate our vision for the life we have yet to live
