Build a Powerful Relationship with Yourself and Change Your LifeFrom USA TODAY bestselling author, keynote speaker, and host of the A Well Cared For Human podcast, Kory M. Shrum offers a trauma-informed, deeply personal guide to healing your past, mastering your fears, and transforming your relationship with yourself. When Kory's mother was murdered after a lifetime of addiction, abuse, and mental illness, Kory was forced to confront a haunting question:Why did their lives turn out so differently?They shared trauma.
They shared dysfunction. They shared generational wounds. Yet one remained trapped in survival mode. The other learned how to break free. In A Well Cared For Human, Kory reveals the framework that changed everything: treating self-care not as a checklist, but as the means to build a lifelong relationship with yourself. Blending raw personal storytelling with practical tools, this book helps you:  Identify and dismantle the "pillar breakers" sabotaging your wellbeing Rewire negative self-talk and destructive internal narratives Manage fear without letting it control your behavior Break cycles of shame, self-punishment, and codependency Build discipline rooted in devotion rather than self-criticism Develop self-trust after trauma Create sustainable, personalized self-care practices that actually work This is not toxic positivity.
This is not "just think happy thoughts."This is deep, compassionate inner work for people who are ready to stop surviving and start living authentically. You don't need a perfect past to build a powerful future. You need a strong relationship with yourself. If you've ever felt stuck in old patterns.If you've ever wondered why healing feels so hard.If you've ever wanted to walk away from all that you've been carrying for far too long.This book will show you how.
