Turtle Envy: How Facing the Fear of Diving Added New Adventures in Life and New Depths in Love (Own Your Path, #2)

by A. K. Snyder

Overview

Learn to scuba alongside Alycea, a claustrophobic newbie determined to overcome anxiety and explore the reefs. 

After a failed scuba class, Alycea swore never to dive again. But when her husband fell in love with the sport, she faced a  decision: overcome the fear, or accept her fate as a bubble watcher. Her identity as self-reliant blocked her from trusting her dive buddy spouse, and this conflict extended beyond the water. Was her independent streak harming her diving as well as her marriage? 

In lyrical prose, this memoir will have you cheering for small wins and reflecting on what it means to trust your partner.
