MY LIFE MY RULES

Are you living your life — or the one everyone else expected of you? From the author of the Amazon bestseller THE HARE NEVER LOST & THE TIGER WITHIN Zara has done everything right. Good grades, a career people envy, a relationship she's supposed to be grateful for. So why does none of it feel like it belongs to her? In a Mumbai hostel dorm, a stranger asks her a question that undoes everything: So what is a coach? What starts as a joke — Winnie, half-amused, trying to explain his job to a woman convinced he's either a disaster-rescue expert or a guru — becomes the conversation that won't let Zara go. Coach or friend. Comfort or clarity. Running or choosing. My Life, My Rules: Journey from Survival to Choice follows Zara from the chaos of Mumbai to the fires of Varanasi, through a betrayal she still can't name out loud, a relationship that taught her love meant disappearing quietly, and a mother's voice on the phone asking when she's finally coming home. Session by session, question by question, Zara starts hearing what she's spent years talking over. Nobody hands her an answer. Not the city. Not the coach. Not even the choice, when it finally comes. This isn't a story about instant transformation. It's a story about what happens when a woman stops performing long enough to ask what she actually wants — and finds out that choosing, uncertain and unapproved, is its own kind of freedom. For readers who: If you've ever wondered whether the life you built is the one you'd have chosen — Zara's story will feel less like fiction and more like a mirror. It's time to write your own rules.
