I spent nearly twenty years working in mental health and healthcare, and I’d always wanted to write a book. I’d never started one, but I’d always imagined it would be about this. Over the years I’d become almost hyper-aware of how often people wait to feel ready before doing something they want to do. Then I went on maternity leave with my son, and I felt compelled to finally do it. The title popped into my head: The Perfect Time Does Not Exist: Get On With It Anyway.
