The Internal Battle - Jeremy D. Nelson

What This Book Is About

This book is about the battle most people never see.

It is about what happens inside us when our behaviors, decisions, relationships, addictions, failures, and fears are really symptoms of something deeper.

I wrote this because I know what it is like to lose myself. I know what addiction can do to a person and the people who love them. I know what prison, divorce, failure, grief, and shame can feel like. I also know what it is like to start rebuilding when you don’t completely trust yourself anymore.

This isn’t a book about becoming someone completely different.

It is about discovering who you really are beneath the things you learned to survive, the masks you created, and the lies you came to believe.

If behavior is the fruit, then identity is the root.

Change the root, and eventually the fruit begins to change.

This is my story of that process, and an invitation for you to begin yours.

You don’t have to stay who you’ve been.

But you do have to get honest about who you are.
