<p>For the first time in her life, Dr. Beth-Anne Blue is turning her musings inward, shifting the focus from others to her own journey. And this book? Consider it an open invitation to join her. Imagine Dr. Blue sitting down with herself, engaging in an intimate, revealing session-except this time, she's the one in the chair.</p><p>A writer at heart, Beth-Anne has spent over two decades as a psychologist, licensed in three states, guiding others through their stories while quietly tucking away her own. Now, she fully embraces her inner scribe, bringing those long-buried pages-thoughts, insights, and raw moments-to life.</p><p><strong><em>Pearls and Purse Straps</em></strong> is a deeply personal collection of anecdotes, a fusion of wisdom and vulnerability, penned by an award-winning writer who also happens to be a brilliant psychologist. It's candid, thought-provoking, and profoundly human-a testament to the power of self-reflection and the beauty of finally telling your own truth.</p>
