«Single or not, with children or without, working or relaxed, with weight or thin, we are above all women. We don't need to put labels, we don't need to judge each other harshly. All feelings are acceptable and we are good at our core, no matter how we experience each change. It is enough to prepare for it, embrace it, and live it as each of us knows and can.»

Through experiential narration, the book deals with the difficulties faced by a modern woman when she does not follow stereotypes. The psychological pressure she may face as a consequence of her choices when they go against the establishment, the guilt and remorse that overwhelm her when she does not follow the beaten path. It is a book that uncovers the facade of perfect motherhood and debunks the myth that women are fulfilled through marriage and family creation. While we may not change radically as people, we are called by circumstances to learn to interpret ourselves and situations through a new lens.

«The reason I decided to speak openly about such delicate and personal matters, like relationships, love, marriage, and motherhood, is because I discovered over time that these are not experienced as personal at all, but more as family or even social issues, if not universal, often in a way that loudly shows how suffocating even the concepts they represent are, within the narrow molds of the timelessly carved public opinion.»
