Proof of Life. Proof of Enough.This week, I had the joy of talking with Jennifer Pastiloff, bestselling author of On Being Human, about her powerful new book Proof of Life — and wow.

This book is a reminder that being messy, tender, and still here is more than enough. It’s a kind of miracle.

Lately, I’ve been giving small bundles — fresh food, flowers, a handwritten note — and realizing they’re really just that: proof of life. A way to say, “I see you. You’re already enough.”

Jennifer’s book is that, too. Honest, funny, raw, and deeply alive.

With love, Carissa
