Stop Disappearing
How to Start Choosing Yourself Without Guilt or Fear
This is the book Cristina Perri wishes someone had handed her before she started dating — direct, honest, and unapologetically real.
Drawing from her own journey through a marriage that slowly erased her and the hard work of rebuilding herself from the inside out, Cristina takes you through the patterns that keep women small — the chemistry illusion, the fixer dynamic, the choose me trap — and shows you what it actually looks like to choose yourself. Not once. Daily.
