Why Is Choosing You So Hard?
From a young age, we?re taught to put others first, be nice, and not be selfish. By the time we reach adulthood, choosing ourselves feels like a betrayal. What if it?s the most important decision we can make? For years, Kristen Chimack calculated the cost of leaving. Still, she never considered the cost of staying?the toll on her authenticity, peace of mind, joy, and health until she finally decided to walk away from it.
Maybe you?re standing at a crossroads, feeling trapped in a toxic job or relationship. You wonder if it?s just you?why does everyone else seem fine while you feel lost? You?re exhausted from pretending, scared of starting over, and confused. In The Cost of Staying, Chimack will guide you to trusting yourself, setting healthy boundaries, and building a life that aligns with who you truly are.
Written like a conversation with a friend, this book is here to remind you: Sometimes, the bravest thing you can do is admit that the life you?ve worked so hard to build might not be the one you?re meant to live.
