Shara Ogilvie, Author

For years, I’ve sat in the therapist’s chair helping others find their way through their stories. In my writing, I'm looking inward, making sense of my own.

 

I write to explore what my life has meant. I do believe there is great purpose in what we pass through. The sun really can come out tomorrow, but we have to believe in it. We all grow. But which direction we grow is completely up to us: we can reach for the darkness or the light. As humans we have that choice. 

​

My current book project centers on a string of traumas I experienced, and how I learned to "perform" a role to find safety, ultimately realizing that acceptance and serenity are far more desirable that any curated image.

I live and practice in Southern Utah, with my husband.
