Your Big Fat Juicy Life: (And Everything After)

About the Book

Psychotherapist Stephanie James’ heart-centered new book illuminates how we perceive life, death, and the magnificent spectrum of human experience. It is also a jubilant invitation to us all to wake up, breathe deeply, and dance with the mysteries of existence…particularly in these times that are so challenging to many, if not most of us.

Drawing from her own experience and wisdom and riveting conversations with global visionaries, cutting-edge consciousness researchers, and pioneering spiritual luminaries. James’ narrative shows us how to dissolve our deepest fears and, in so doing, ignite an unprecedented zest for living in our hearts and souls. With the compassion of a trusted friend, she unveils the extraordinary potential hidden within each moment of our lives, providing both a powerful antidote to doubt and a beacon of hope that illuminates the incredible adventure of being human.

A respected therapist, filmmaker, and host of the Igniting the Spark radio show and podcast, Stephanie weaves a tapestry of wisdom that is at once deeply personal and, at the same time, universally relatable. Her work challenges traditional boundaries, offering readers a passport to inner freedom and radical aliveness.

“ ‘Your Big Fat Juicy Life’ by Stephanie James is actually a love story.  It not only speaks to this author’s love for the true mystery and magic that is life, its many stages and truly meaningful moments and relationships, but it speaks to her love and honor for what she and the many remarkable people she includes in these pages know is not the end but, in fact, only the beginning of the next stage of the Great Mystery.

“WOWOW!  What an amazing book! I am honored to have been one of the first people to read it!! What a hope-filled book about a topic that many people can find terrifying or heartbreaking!  I think Stephanie could have titled this book, How to Die Well by Living Well First.  What an incredible resource to not only make peace with the death of a loved one, but a beautiful guide to prepare for the inevitable end of (this) life.”
