It’s Gonna Get Messy.
by Becca Eve Young
She built the life she was supposed to want—a high-flying career, a marriage, a carefully crafted plan. Until everything came crashing down. A dear friend dies. Her marriage unravels. She’s laid off while alone in a foreign country as a global pandemic hits. Then, just when she thinks it can’t get worse, she gets the call that her father has died.
Stranded in rural Mexico, cracked open by grief, she experiences a supernatural encounter under the full moon that sets her on a wild, often hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking journey. From car crashes and chaotic hookups, to silent meditation retreats, psychedelic revelations, robberies, and mystical moments—this is what happens when life blows up and a woman dares to say yes to becoming someone new.
Becca’s journey is raw, hilarious, and a deeply human memoir that reads like fiction. What starts as a freefall becomes a wild quest to untangle grief, rewrite old stories, and rediscover her own worth. Told with spiritual sass, hard-won wisdom, and gut-punching honesty, this incredible true story is for anyone who’s ever felt lost in their own life and is searching for more. For fans of Glennon Doyle, Chelsea Handler, Gabrielle Bernstein, and Elizabeth Gilbert, this is a raw, funny, and soul-stirring invitation to remember who you are—and reclaim the freedom to become who you were always meant to be. But remember, it's gonna get messy.
