Description: Unraveled is Housden's story of how, after the death of her young daughter, she found the courage to break away from her role as a wife and stay-at-home mom and strike out on her own in search of a more fulfilling life. Leaving her three surviving children in the primary custody of her husband, Housden faced down the disbelief of friends and family and began a journey that would ultimately lead her not only to the truth about herself, but also to a deeper and more loving connection with her children. She writes about the emotional reckoning that led to her decision and the ways in which she has become the best mother she can be while no longer living with her children full-time.
