I was Never Meant to Disappear: A Journey of Healing, Boundaries and Coming Home to Self
Paperback Edition - Launch Date 11 January 2026
I Was Never Meant to Disappear is a reflective, deeply personal book written for women who have loved deeply, stayed silent too long, and quietly lost themselves in the process.
Through honest storytelling and emotional clarity, this book explores what happens when endurance is no longer sustainable—and choosing yourself becomes necessary. It gives language to experiences many women have lived but rarely named: self-erasure in love, carrying blame that was never theirs, grieving someone who is still alive, and learning how to return to themselves without guilt.
Rooted in lived experience and written with intention, I Was Never Meant to Disappear is not about bitterness or blame. It is about awareness, self-respect, and the quiet courage it takes to come home to who you were before survival took over.
Rather than offering instructions, this book invites recognition. Readers often see themselves reflected in these pages—not because their story is the same, but because the emotions are. In that recognition, healing begins.
This book is for women who have:
Loved deeply and lost themselves quietly
Stayed silent to keep the peace
Confused endurance with devotion
Been changed by an ending they didn’t fully understand
I Was Never Meant to Disappear is not about ending a relationship.
It is about ending silence—and returning to self.
Who Am I After the Uniform?
A Guided Journey of Identity and Purpose
By Koerrea K. Bailey
Being Developed with Care
Who Am I After the Uniform? is a reflective guide created for service members and veterans navigating the transition from structured service to civilian life—and the identity shift that comes with it.
This guided journey explores the emotional, mental, and personal layers of life after the uniform: the loss of structure, the redefining of purpose, and the quiet question many carry but rarely ask—Who am I now? Through reflection, clarity-building prompts, and intentional self-inquiry, this book offers space to process change without pressure.
Rooted in lived experience and written with intention, Who Am I After the Uniform? honors the discipline, sacrifice, and strength built through service while supporting the emergence of a new identity beyond rank, role, or title.
Rather than telling readers who to become, this book invites exploration. It meets the reader where they are—uncertain, evolving, and ready to redefine purpose on their own terms.
This guided journey is for those who are:
Transitioning out of military or structured service
Redefining identity beyond the uniform
Seeking clarity, direction, and renewed purpose
Learning how to carry their strength forward into a new chapter
Who Am I After the Uniform? is not about leaving service behind.
It is about honoring it—while making room for who you are becoming.
Becoming
By Koerrea K. Bailey
Expected in a Future Season
Becoming is a reflective exploration of growth, self-awareness, and personal evolution. Written for individuals in the midst of change, this book centers the quiet, often unseen moments where transformation begins.
Through thoughtful reflection and emotional insight, Becoming examines the space between who you were and who you are growing into. It is about shedding identities that no longer fit, listening inward, and allowing yourself to evolve without urgency or comparison.
Grounded in honesty and written with care, Becoming is not about reinvention—it is about permission. Permission to grow slowly. Permission to question. Permission to change.
This book does not offer timelines or expectations. Instead, it creates space for reflection, acceptance, and self-trust during seasons of transition.
This book is for those who are:
Navigating personal change or inner awakening
Letting go of past versions of themselves
Learning to trust their own timing
Embracing growth without needing to have it all figured out
Becoming is not about arriving.
It is about allowing.
