Hi, I’m Michelle Palmer from . How can I help?
Summary
In Unshamed and Unfinished, the heart of the story is my journey through addiction, recovery, and redemption. I walk through the darkness honestly so readers can see that recovery is possible and that shame does not get the final word.
Major themes that run through both memoirs include:
- Breaking silence and secrecy around addiction
- Healing from trauma and regret
- The messy, ongoing nature of recovery (hence Unfinished)
- Hope, courage, and using my story to encourage others
Both books are meant to make healing louder than shame and help readers feel less alone on their own journeys.
Is there a particular theme you are most interested in—addiction, family, recovery, or something else?
