A Sea of Lego & Lavender - Paperback

by Sarah Small (Author)

Some escapes are planned. Others are necessary.

When Sarah could no longer recognize her life - or herself - she did what few dare to do.

She left.

Trading the familiar for the foreign, she found herself in Bali, surrounded by temples, rice paddies, and the quiet insistence of a life waiting to be rebuilt. And she began to write.

A Sea of Lego & Lavender is a memoir born from a moment of walking away. What began with the unthinkable discovery of her husband's infidelity became the first in a cascade of devastating events - a diagnosis, a death, a collision that should have ended everything. One domino, then another, then another, until the life she had so carefully built was unrecognizable.

So she boarded a plane to the other side of the world.

Honest, warm, and ultimately luminous, this is the story of one woman rebuilding from the ground up - learning who she is when everything she thought she knew turns out to be something else entirely. Part travel memoir, part reckoning, part love letter to second chances, A Sea of Lego & Lavender is for anyone who has ever walked away from the wreckage and wondered, with trembling hands, what comes next.

Sarah Small is the author of a deeply personal memoir, soon to be part of a four book series, tracing her journey through darkness toward resilience, and the founder of a growing body of work designed to guide others through their own. From memoirs to reflective journals to practical life guides, her books meet readers where they are - and walk alongside them toward where they're meant to be.
