Why readers love it!
“Both humorous and heartbreaking, Girl in the Spotlight is about one woman learning to let go of expectations and begin to process childhood loss so that she can, finally, listen to her own heart and start building a life that is both authentic and fulfilling. This compelling memoir is one you’ll want to read again and again. I highly recommend it!”
–Kate Hopper, author of ‘Ready for Air’ and ‘Use Your Words’
“Angie proves that success is not linear, that angels can show up in the most random of places to push us forward, and asks us to examine what would happen if we stopped trying to control our future – a difficult but powerful life lesson for any purpose-driven individual to learn. Bravo, Angie, for your honest self-reflection and for paying your wisdom forward.”
–Shauna VanBogart, Transformative Business Coach
“Reading Mizzell’s page-turner feels like sharing a porch swing with your most supportive friend, one who listens more than she talks, always makes you laugh, and leaves you a little more clear-headed.”
–Ann Imig, founder of the nationwide storytelling series ‘Listen To Your Mother’
“When you’re a public person, everyone assumes that the personality you project is the whole story about you. But we seldom imagine what could be going on behind the scenes and sets of the show. How do you let go of a dream that is tied up in your very identity? Who will you be without it? This is the story that Angie Mizzell tells in her memoir, Girl in the Spotlight, and it’s nothing less than a how-to on saving your life.”
–Nikki Hardin, Founder and former Publisher of Skirt! magazine
✧ the story behind the story ✧Why Girl in the Spotlight?
I am a storyteller at heart; it’s what I do. Just like my own journey of finding myself at a crossroads and choosing the unexpected path, I always knew I wanted to share my story to inspire others who might also feel stuck in a life that no longer fits.
At its core, Girl in the Spotlight is about a woman who realized the spotlight she seemed destined to stand in wasn’t where her heart belonged. It’s a story of awakening, fear, bravery, and a whole lot of healing. My deepest wish is that it inspires you to walk your own path through this wild and beautiful life.
