Powered to Fall, Empowered to Rise
Buy the Book
by Rachel Drury
I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at the age of 30. At the same time I was looking to start a new life in Australia and had just met Des (my fiancé) while working at an Irish bar.
Des stood by me through this illness and supported me in ways I could have never imagined with his love. After having to cancel our wedding in 2018 and give up work, we finally found our happy place in 2020.
The love that Des showed me during this time and the illness inspired me to write a book so that I could help others who are also going through a difficult time. The book writes about the lessons I learnt in my own life on health, wealth, love and happiness.
It is my hope that this book will help others and inspire others that love always shines through no matter how dark our days are. This book has been written from my heart to yours.

Rachel’s illness put her on a journey where, along the way, she discovered universal truths and wisdom which she shares with us in a beautiful, clear writing style. Keep this book near you because it will guide you in so many ways to think about life’s twists and turns and how to negotiate them by being kinder to yourself and others.

Firstly, I think it must be said that this book will be enjoyed not only by those who are living with chronic illness/ pain but also by countless others. The author, while writing openly about her chronic illness, (in this context) also explores universal truths transcending the physical/ tangible universe, that we encounter on our journey through life. It is a book that I wish my teenage self had discovered! In short, a beautiful book, deserving a permanent place on your bookshelf.
