About What I Wish I Had Known

From the publisher's feed

“What I Wish I Had Known” is brought to you by three thirty somethings talking about life events, the ups and downs, and what we wish we’d known and would like to pass on to others. We believe when women share their stories honestly and openly that is when real change begins to happen.
