Today is book release day! These moments feel as enormous as giving birth — to a proverbial child known as an idea, a story deep within that has taken humungous effort to make its way into the world. Steph Jagger's second book is nothing short of truly incredible – you will laugh, you will cry, you will relate on SO many levels to the journey of aging parents. It takes courage to tell stories; it takes another level of guts to put your heart and soul onto the pages for the world to read. This book is worth picking up; this pod will give you every reason to do just that. Bravo Steph — TeamCorker are huge fans of your heart.LINKS:Everything Left To Remember: www.stephjagger.com/everything-left-to-rememberUnbound: www.stephjagger.com/unboundUncorked Episode 108 : https://soundcloud.com/uncorkedpodcast/108-what-is-it-time-for-now-w-steph-jagger
