Along the way, Leslie learned more about herself than she ever thought possible. A journey through the beauty of France, "Découverte (Discovered): Lessons I Learned from My French Adventure" is more than a story of travel; it is a story of discovery. A whirlwind of lessons learned in trusting your gut, learning to seek help, and finding a hidden strength buried inside.
Both humorous and thought-provoking, Leslie weaves together memoir and self-help to discover a new version of herself, providing lessons and tips on how to find a new you in the process.
