Attend this FREE public lecture from Jamie Tworkowski, the author of the One Book One Campus selection, If You Feel Too Much, a collection of personal stories from the author that focus on the inner struggles that we face in our lives: loss, despair, and pain. The narratives shared in the novel intend to encourage the audience to ask for help when they need it, not to be ashamed to reach out, and realize that there is hope for everyone to live a happy life. In light of the current state of the world, these lessons couldn't be more timely.
"We're all in this together. It's okay to be honest. It's okay to ask for help. It's okay to say you're stuck, or that you're haunted or that you can't begin to let go. We can all relate to those things. Screw the stigma that says otherwise. Break the silence and break the cycle, for you are more than just your pain. You are not alone. And people need other people." -- Jamie Tworkowski, If You Feel Too Much
