Do you know what is preventing you from revealing your most authentic self to the world? Or what it might take to release the past, let go of shame, drop limiting beliefs, and take risks for what you love?

The Great Unlearning, a revealing memoir of compelling prose and stunning fine art photography embodying the hero’s journey, answers these questions and more. Mary La recounts growing up in the chaos of a broken home, directionless, and being left to her own devices to face unthinkable physical and emotional assaults during her formative and adolescent years.

The author's account of how embracing painful past memories helped heal deep wounds and awakened her to the potential of being vulnerable, all while discovering her own joyous, creative purpose—offers a poignantly candid expression of personal evolution which will inspire deep reflection.

The Great Unlearning offers an intimate view of a courageous leap of faith into exploration of life-defining experiences that will provide readers with permission to confront and unlearn old ways of being that no longer serve them along their own path to self-discovery and healing.
