After a difficult pregnancy, traumatic childbirth and near death experience, Renée Schuls-Jacobson endured "next level insomnia." Little did she know the dark places her attempts to feel better would lead.

Meanwhile, she tried to make her marriage, which lacked sexual chemistry, work. Renée's story is also one of hope, healing and vibrancy—including re: her Girl Boners. ;)
