Published Book
Jean is the published author of a paperback and eBook titled, Finding Hope on the Other Side of Depression: Slogging Through and Breaking Free. Her “teaching memoir” details her time spent in three mental hospitals within one month—diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety. 4 ½ years later, Jean emerged from that Category 5, Hurricane Katrina, storm-of-the-mind thinking about life very differently and with a renewed sense of purpose.
Her story was self-published through Serene and Green with Jean Publishing in December 2022.
