Building While Broken: The Truth About Losing Yourself... and Finding Your Way Back is a powerful blend of spoken word poetry and reflective narrative that explores what it means to rebuild your life in the middle of emotional unraveling. Through honest storytelling and intentional poetic expression, Michon R. Fabio invites readers into a deeply personal journey of love, self-abandonment, awakening, and healing. Each chapter uncovers the quiet moments where boundaries were ignored, intuition was silenced, and identity became entangled in the need to be chosen.
This book does not rush the healing process. Instead, it creates space for reflection, allowing readers to recognize their own patterns while navigating the discomfort of truth and the beauty of growth.
Designed as a hybrid reading experience, Building While Broken moves between grounded narrative and emotionally resonant poetry, offering both clarity and connection. It speaks to those who have loved deeply, stayed longer than they should have, and are now learning how to choose themselves without guilt.
This is not a story about perfection-it is about awareness, accountability, and the courage to rebuild from within. For anyone learning to trust themselves again, set boundaries, and redefine what love truly means, this book serves as both a mirror and a guide.
Even in brokenness, there is movement.
Even in loss, there is clarity.
And even in the process of rebuilding, there is something beautiful taking shape.
