I am truly grateful and honored by the love and support you’ve shown me and this book. To those of you who have reached out and related, I see you. To those going through battles, I support you. To those who have stood by my side through this, thank you. I love you all. ~Sue

Meet the author

Hi, I’m Suzanne Krasnow—wife, mom, maker, and storyteller. I’ve taken some of life’s hardest chapters and turned them into bold, messy, beautiful reminders to just keep showing up.

I’m the founder of Warrior Angel Creations, where I design original sewn goods with purpose, humor, and absolutely zero fluff. From wheelchair accessories to spicy bookmarks for readers who like their books a little wild—I make things that make life easier (and funnier).

After facing chronic illness, cancer, and a complete derailment of the life I thought I was building, I had to start over. And over. And over again. I rebuilt from the ground up—one stitch, one post, and one worn-out pair of shoes at a time.

My voice? Honest, sarcastic, and probably a little too real sometimes. But I believe in saying the quiet stuff out loud. In writing, and in life, I aim to be resilient, gritty, and gloriously imperfect.

I live in a small town in Minnesota with my husband. I’m a retired Air Force vet, now spending my days creating, connecting, and reminding others that healing doesn’t require perfection—just a little movement in the right direction.
