If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Speaker, writer, and producer Trey Anthony breaks it down, giving black women a relatable voice and personalized keeping it real to-do list on how to practice self-love and self-care.
Therapy is not just for white women-no matter what your momma told you!
After a lifetime of never truly relating to the personal development experts because of the color of her skin, Trey Anthony has written the book she needed to read as a black woman trying to navigate a world filled with unique challenges that often acts like she doesnt exist.
On the outside Trey Anthony was the overachieving, reliable, and strong black woman she was raised to be, but on the inside the pressure of sacrificing her own needs to please others was building. When her grandmother and mother raised her strong, they also unknowingly taught her that self-love and expressing emotions were weak, creating an unhealthy dynamic that had Trey facing burnout and rock bottom.
In Black Girl in Love (with Herself), Trey breaks down the lessons and tools that she used to heal her life, including how to:
Set clear and healthy boundaries-even with the people who raised you
Quit being the family ATM
Sort out who is a real friend, and who is just there for parties and gossip
Confront microaggressions at work without missing a beat
Forget who black women are supposed to be
And fall in love with yourself!

Five months before the first draft of Black Girl in Love (with Herself) was due to the publisher, I found myself broken, a hot mess, and I barely recognized my life. How did I get here? This couldnt possibly be my picture-perfect life. This couldnt be the good life that I had spent the last four years carefully curating and creating and, of course, posting all over social media. The life that people commented on as if I were living the fairy tale. The life that people hashtagged #couplegoals.

My partner and I were the power couple. I was an acclaimed, award-winning writer, who turned her immigrant rags to riches story into a TV show. I was the first Black woman in Canada to have her own TV show (they called me the Oprah of Canada), and I now motivated thousands of women to take action on topics such as love, relationships, and just living their best damn lives! I loved my life and my work, and I truly thought I was doing Gods work.

We often talked about our plans to leave a legacy, and with her brains, my creativity, and our strong work ethics, we knew we would change the world. I thought we were unstoppable! In our spare time we jet setted across the world. It was not unusual to catch us jumping on a plane to Dubai, England, Antigua, Barbados, or Hawaii. We ate at five-star restaurants around the world, taking pictures of our fabulous meals. We hired a car service to take us to the spa for the day. I often came home to five dozen roses on the counter, and, of course, I would Instagram that shit immediately! We often sent long, lovey dovey, public Facebook messages to each other, just to ensure that the world knew that we were in love. We were that Black couple who had made it! We gave hope to all Black women that one day, they, too, could be living the fairy tale. I felt blessed that someone successful, rich, and gorgeous had chosen me, and I would pinch myself at night thinking, How was this possible? My relationship gave me a sense of identity and purpose. And if Im being honest, it also gave me a sense of importance.

I was raised by a single mother who had me at age 17, and I spent most of my childhood being shuffled from one home to another. I grew up working class, in public housing, and got kicked out of the house at age 19. Yet somehow, I seemed to have achieved the impossible, and I was eager to share my secrets with the world. Here I was, the Black girl love expert who was going to tell how I had attracted the love of my life. I had done the workinner and outer. I had spent the money on therapy. I had written the list where I told the Universe/God what I wanted in a partner, and I was not going to settle for less. I read that list every day until it was practically burned into in my brain. I had prayed the Ciara prayer, watched every episode of Super Soul Sunday, and by doing all of this, I had attracted my big love! I was the living example of never giving up hope. And love could find you too, girl! I knew so much about love that the biggest self-help publisher in North America gave me a damn book deal to write about it! Now suddenly, here I was in the fetal positionsleep deprived, crumpled on the bathroom floor, crying hysterically, gasping for air.

What the hell happened to my life?

Nothing made sense anymore. My fiance of four years had just abruptly ended our relationship via text. Yes, girl, text! I was in disbelief. We were supposed to be getting married in Hawaii. And four weeks prior, we had moved into a brand-new luxury condo. Boxes were still unpacked, and we had recently hired a fancy interior decorator to create our beautiful home. I even had a date circled in my calendar to discuss paint colors for the nursery. Nursery? Oh, yes! I read that text while trying to wipe baby poop out of my shoulder-length locs. I had a brand-new, adopted baby boy who was just 12 days old and now I found myself with less than 10 days to vacate the apartment. The walls of my perfect life were crumbling. I was numb. The baby, picking up on my obvious stress, began screaming uncontrollably. I could not find the energy to go to him.

What the hell did I miss? How could I not know my relationship was in jeopardy? How could I have continued to offer thousands of women relationship advice and miss the tsunami hitting my own life? My inner critic, who I dubbed Critical Cathy, quickly showed up to kick me while I was down. And, girl, she wasnt playing as her voice took over my head. Trey, youre an awful human being. And an awful mother. Everyone is going to laugh at you (full Carrie moment, minus the blood). This is all your fault! Why did you think someone like you could live a fairy-tale life? Haha! And now youve been dumped. You obviously dont have a clue what it takes to be in a relationship because if you did, your fiance would still be here with you, making a bottle of formula. And if that werent enough, now you and your baby are going to be homeless!
