Courtney's riveting memoir details her coming-of-age story. It reveals her personal battles - including coming to terms with her sexual identity - and career success in the Navy during the "don't ask, don't tell" era.
While living a life trying to please others, Courtney simultaneously lost herself. She suffered in silence and experienced depression, feelings of failure, and suicidal thoughts until she developed relationships in the Navy that changed her outlook on herself - empowering her to stand in her purpose and never apologize for who she is.
She hopes her unfiltered and raw account of life filled with abandonment, confusion, strength, hope, and self-acceptance inspires others to hold their heads high, bask in confidence, and walk in their purpose. Her testimony helps raise awareness while reducing the stigma of mental illness in today's workforce.
Courtney is proud to call herself a lesbian, a woman, and most of all a sailor in the U.S. Navy. She will always be unapologetically favored.
