Seriously! Are We There Yet?!

"Seriously Are We There Yet? is here to remind you of the power to course-correct along your journey by embracing new choices, beliefs and actions. This book will guide you back to your heart - it's a gem "

- Nancy Levin, author of Setting Boundaries Will Set You Free

Finally A picture book for the kid that's still inside each of us.

"Seriously Are We There Yet? is an illustrated inspirational book for we "grownups" living in the real world, faking it, sometimes making it, and more often than not failing and wondering WTF...? How did we end up here? Where do we go now? How much longer 'til we "arrive"?

Full of whimsy and wisdom, this self-help rhyming romp is for every one of us on life's journey who:

• wonder if we're the only ones who still haven't figured it all out;
• regret our past and are uncertain of our future;
• question our own purpose and self-worth;
• worry that time is running out and that this may be as good as it gets;
• can't stop the "coulda, woulda, shouldas" of almost every decision we've made;
• fear that we're missing out on the secret to life; and who
• stress about the possibility that we'll never make it to wherever it is we think we're supposed to be.

"Seriously Are We There Yet? is a personal growth guide and reminder of the joy of living life as it was meant to be. It's a motivational self-help book offering wisdom that's not sugar-coated; rather, it speaks to what is and to objectively seeing things for what they could be in a digestible colorfully uplifting - yet practical - read.

This book - written with a nod to Dr. Seuss - is the perfect gift to give to yourself and to loved ones from age one to 101 (or more). It's the much-needed encouragement to live in the moment and to enjoy the journey with all its winding and bumpy roads.

Why wait to put a smile back on your face and a skip in your step?

About the Author
Milana, Paolina: - "Originally titled, Are We The F**k There Yet?!, this book started out a bit of a rant as I battled my own coulda-woulda-shouldas and struggled to understand how I could be feeling so out of sorts and unworthy, despite having succeeded at doing so much. No matter how many to-dos I ticked off my list, it never was enough. Unceremoniously dismissed and discarded from my job, the one thing that I thought defined me, it only furthered my self-doubts and fears. Now I no longer had a purpose or a plan or even a paycheck, and I didn't seem to belong anywhere. I found myself uncomfortably sitting between what was no longer and what was yet to be. So at a time in my life when I expected to hear something similar to my GPS proclaiming, You have arrived; instead, what rang in my head were the words I whispered to myself: You f**ked up and How did you end up here? Setting out to get answers and reimagining this chapter of my story - one that I realized wasn't unique to me - I wrote this book. I'm grateful to have found a talented soul in Whitney to bring the characters to life. And I'm so lucky to have a supportive husband, an engineer by day and a singer-songwriter by night, who lent his lyrical expertise and artistic eye to help make this all that we hoped it would be. This book helped me return to me: That playful kid inside who gets excited at the possibilities of whatever life has in store. It also has made me aware of just how far I've come, of my resiliency and reinvention, and of how I've mastered finding the magic in whatever madness I may be in. This is my wish for you, dear Readers. I hope this inspiring rhyming romp has you remembering who you are and who you've always been, tapping into your own power, loving what is, and knowing there's so much more ahead for you and me. No matter where you're at, the journey is, indeed, still on! I'd love to know your story, how far you've come and how far you'll go after reading Seriously! Are We There Yet?!.

Are We There Yet?! was the perfect smack in the face when I first read it. It literally made me choke up while attempting to read it out loud. Before Paolina came to me with this project, I had been struggling a lot with my own identity as an artist. Stuck in a viscous cycle of comparison and even envy, believing that the work I was doing was never good enough, I had started to doubt myself and lose my passion for the thing I loved most: My art. Illustrating this book has broken barriers for me that I didn't even realize were there. It has helped me, not only because of its words of inspiration, but also with the entire collaborative process. Before this book, I had convinced myself that my life would never be noteworthy unless I made it big in the art world. Now I know that that's a lie. I've already made it big to the people in my life who matter - my amazing mom, my inspiring little girl, my encouraging friends, and my financial wizard of a husband who creatively contributed in so many ways to this project being what it is, and who I couldn't have done without. If this book helps prevent people from digging themselves into that same hole I was in, and if through these pages, I can lend them a hand out if they're already in too deep, I've used my love of art in a way that's BIG and that makes a real difference for others.
