When Karlee first came to us, she wasn’t sure if her story would ever be more than just words in her journal. Fast forward a year, and Grippy Sock Vacation has become a go-to resource in mental health conversations. Not only did her memoir launch successfully, but it’s still making an impact, ranking #16 in Amazon’s Coping with Bipolar Disorder category a full year later. On top of that, Karlee’s book has opened doors for her as a speaker and advocate, helping her reach even more people who need her message.
