"Your capacity to love is marked by your capacity to be alone."

The love most of us spend our lives searching for in other people has been waiting inside us all along, and the only way to find it is to stop running from our own company.

Come Home To Yourself is a poetry and prose collection structured as a three-part journey through the real seasons of personal growth. Rae designed each section to mirror the actual arc of transformation — beginning with Truth (the hard realizations about patterns, beliefs, and what is no longer serving you), moving into Pain (the inevitable discomfort of change, of leaving behind the comfort of the familiar), and arriving finally at Abundance (the clarity, peace, and wholeness on the other side of the growth process). Each section requires the one before it. There are no shortcuts between them.

The writing moves through the territory of romantic relationships, friendship, solitude, self-worth, boundaries, and the process of becoming your most authentic self — not as abstract ideals, but as lived, specific, emotionally precise experiences that readers consistently describe as feeling like their own private thoughts finally put into words. The format is short, dip-in poetry and prose, written to be read slowly, annotated, and returned to on the days when you need a reminder of why you started.

Rae brings something rare to this genre: a psychology degree and an analytical mind trained to identify patterns in human emotion, combined with a poet's instinct for the exact line that cracks something open. The result is a collection that feels both deeply personal and structurally intentional — warm enough to be a comfort read, rigorous enough to function as a genuine map.

Perfect for readers who:

• Are post-breakup, especially those who lost themselves in a relationship and are finding their way back
• Are in a season of chosen solitude and want something that reframes being alone as a practice of self-love rather than a gap to fill
• Follow @ebbandflowpoetry on Instagram and want the full, expanded experience in book form
• Love the short-form poetry and prose of Yung Pueblo, Charlotte Freeman, or Bianca Sparacino — but want something with a more explicit structural journey from pain to wholeness
• Are looking for a beautiful, meaningful gift for someone going through a breakup, a transition, or a season of self-discovery

A Thought Catalog Books imprint. Déjà Rae's debut collection: Ebb & Flow. Comparable to Everything You'll Ever Need, You Can Find Within Yourself by Charlotte Freeman and A Gentle Reminder by Bianca Sparacino.
