With one in six couples globally struggling with infertility, we’re all aware that the path to parenthood can often be far from straightforward, yet the silence surrounding these issues can often make it feel like a road travelled alone.

So, what does happen after the failed pregnancy tests, the first miscarriage, the unsuccessful round of IVF, the ectopic pregnant or stillbirth?

Thinky Thoughts walks the line between memoir, storytelling, guided meditation, and self-help. It’s a little bit of explanation, a lot a bit of exploration, and a tiny bit of still not knowing what’s I’m supposed to be doing as an adult. It’s also being okay with not knowing.

Few women have ever run 800 meters in under two minutes. Even fewer people have taken on running’s abusive training culture and won. Mary Cain has done both. She emerged as a running phenom at age 12, a straight-A student obsessed with Greco-Roman mythology and the freedom she felt when she ran fast.

Growing up with emotionally immature or emotionally unavailable parents can leave deep imprints—leading to self-doubt, people-pleasing, and the feeling that your needs were always secondary. These patterns, often rooted in intergenerational trauma, can persist into adulthood, shaping relationships, self-worth, and emotional well-being. But it wasn’t all bad, right? That’s what makes it so confusing. This book helps you make sense of that emotional gray area, acknowledging what wasn’t good enough without staying stuck in resentment.

Daughters often grow up believing their role in the family is simple: love your parents, help out when you can, and carry on the traditions that bind you together. But adulthood reveals a more complicated reality. So, what is “daughtering”? If you’re a woman and you’ve ever dreaded a weekly phone call to your mother or planned a multi-generational family vacation or considered everyone’s dietary needs at Thanksgiving (including your vegan cousin), then you are daughtering.
