Black Author Releases Powerful Memoir That Explores Quiet Unspoken Transitions of Life

 Seasons Of Me: A Journey of Learning & Unlearning by Joyce Wambua Osborne is a powerful memoir that explores the quiet, often unspoken transitions that shape a life; grief and joy, faith and doubt, belonging and displacement. Written with honesty and emotional precision, the book invites readers into the author’s personal journey of becoming, one season at a time.

Blending memory, reflection, and cultural nuance, Seasons of Me examines what it means to grow beyond places, identities, and expectations. The memoir captures the tension of living between worlds, between who we’re taught to be and who we are slowly learning to become, while offering a deeply human meditation on resilience, self-forgiveness, and hope.

Author Max Miller Releases
New Self-Help Book “Blame It on the Feel of Pain” About Detangling From Past Pain

Get ready for a transformational journey toward inner peace as indie author Max W. Miller’s new self-help release, Blame It On The Feel Of Pain, inspires readers in a witty, down-to-earth book. Truth and compassion are foretold, using poetic frames called ‘The Wises,’ and the help of opinionated little emojis bringing laughter and thought-provoking conclusions throughout.

The author encourages her readers, whom she also calls partners, to stop wrestling with the hard knocks of the past. She expresses how voluntarily walking back into time precedes trauma healing. Confronting lingering pains is a step toward strength and hope for the future. ‘Blame It’ delves into the author’s life experiences, bringing to life the importance of using Full Circle Moments to find resolutions.

Throughout Blame It On The Feel Of Pain, the reader grows to understand through a unique interpretation that what we are destined to become grows out of the years we’ve already traveled. Further, our future hinges on how we address the pains of the past. Other expressions focus on how desires in the present are carved out of having a clear vision that old, lingering strongholds must be defeated. A history of suffering is a prerequisite for becoming fed up enough to demand enjoyment now!

At its core, Seasons of Me matters because it gives language to experiences that many people carry silently. It speaks to readers navigating transition: immigration and return, faith and questioning, love and loss, ambition and rest.

Rather than offering neat answers, the book honors the complexity of growing, affirming that growth is not linear, and healing does not arrive all at once. Seasons of Me acts as a mirror that allows readers to pause and reflect on their own growth.

In a time when many feel pressured to have life “figured out,” Seasons of Me offers something rarer and more necessary: permission to be unfinished. It reminds readers that every season, whether barren, blooming, or in between, has meaning. This memoir will resonate with readers of literary nonfiction, diasporic narratives, and reflective memoirs, particularly those interested in stories of identity, faith, womanhood, and cultural belonging.

Seasons of Me is available on Amazon in paperback and ebook formats.

Seasons of Me is her debut memoir, a deeply personal reflection on navigating life’s transitions with grace, grit, and an open heart.

Through this memoir, the author has drawn on the in-between spaces of life; the seasons that are rarely celebrated but deeply formative. Seasons of Me is written as both a testament and an offering to readers navigating their own journeys of becoming. Through these pages, she hopes readers will come to know her story, her spirit, and the strength it took to keep becoming.
