My Sunflower Soul: A Memoir

A raw and powerful memoir about surviving the unimaginable — and learning how to heal.

Some lives are shaped by storms.
This is the story of surviving those storms — and growing toward the light.

In My Sunflower Soul, Emily Quint shares a powerful and deeply personal story of survival, resilience, and healing.

From childhood anxiety and panic attacks to cancer, intimate partner violence, sexual assault, and pregnancy loss, Emily opens the door to the moments that shaped her life. With honesty and vulnerability, she reflects on the ways trauma can fracture us — and the strength it takes to rebuild.

Through heartbreak and hardship, one truth remains: healing is possible.

My Sunflower Soul is a memoir for anyone navigating their own storms, searching for hope, or learning how to grow again after life has broken them open.

What Readers Will Find Inside

Through deeply personal storytelling and reflection, My Sunflower Soul explores:

• living with anxiety and panic disorder
• depression and suicidality
• disordered eating and alcohol use
• surviving cancer at 20
• navigating intimate partner violence and abuse
• the impact of sexual violence and the justice system
• grief and pregnancy loss
• learning what healing really looks like

Emily shares not only the events that shaped her life, but also the insight, resilience, and strength she discovered along the way.

At its heart, this book is a reminder that even after life’s deepest wounds, healing is still possible — and no one has to walk that path alone.

The Soundtrack of My Sunflower Soul

This playlist follows the emotional arc of My Sunflower Soul — beginning in the quiet pain of survival and rising gently into hope. Each song is a hand on your shoulder, a breath when yours runs short, and a reminder that healing takes time. Wherever you are on your journey, let these songs walk beside you, reminding you that you are never alone.

Writing My Sunflower Soul was one of the hardest and most healing things I have ever done.

This book is my way of saying: you are not alone.

If even one person reads these pages and feels a little less broken, a little more understood, or a little more hopeful — then sharing my story will have been worth it.

Thank you for being here.
