“I began this book while on a 10 hour flight to Europe. I read the entire book and LOVED it! Upon returning home, I have found myself re-reading one chapter a day! There is so much content in the book that I needed to take it at a slower pace and just soak in the peace, serenity and insight. I bought this book just for me and I have enjoyed it, and will continue to!” - M. Doxey, Amazon customer

Author and storyteller Mary Dessein delivers a powerful collection of inspirational essays in her latest work “When I Was a Rock Star: Thoughts on Being Present in the World.” This self-help book combines honest reflections on life’s most profound experiences with a gentle touch of humor that makes difficult topics approachable and healing.

Dessein’s collection gently explores the universal threads that tie us all together – living, dying, forgiving, and learning. But she doesn’t just reflect on these big life themes in abstract terms. With a rare kind of sensitivity, she offers insights that feel grounded and deeply personal. Her reflections don’t just uplift – they linger. Dessein shares the kind of wisdom that quietly stays with you, especially when life gets confusing or heavy. Each essay carries a quiet strength, offering gentle encouragement and those familiar moments where you find yourself nodding and thinking, “Yes, I’ve been there too.”

What really makes this book stand out is how deeply Dessein connects with her readers. Her words come across as if they’re from someone who knows them well – someone who has been through their own share of hard days and still chooses to show up with kindness. There’s a calm, steady honesty in her voice that doesn’t try to fix problems but simply sits beside the reader in them. And sometimes, that’s exactly what the heart needs most. Somehow, it’s exactly what the reader needs.

Readers seeking inspiration and healing through honest storytelling can order When I Was a Rock Star: Thoughts on Being Present in the World today on Amazon. For more insights into Mary Dessein’s work and to explore her ongoing blog, visit her official website at https://marydessein.com/.
