Deserts to Mountaintops: Choosing Our Healing Through Radical Self-Acceptance is a collection of nineteen women's voices, born out of Jessica's own struggle to love and accept her body, soul, and mind. Operating under the belief that we cannot heal fully in isolation, she has assembled a group of courageous women to generously share their stories of mental health disorders, chronic illness, disordered eating, sexual identity, and body reclamation. The result is a transformational guidebook for any woman who is committed to exploring self-compassion through the lens of radical self-acceptance.

Contributor, Viviauna Brown, is a meticulous and highly analytical individual with diverse, yet unique, experiences. Although born and bred a "Mississippi Girl" and influenced deeply by Southern culture, she has always had an interest in experiencing other cultures, regions, and concepts throughout her life as well. Her longtime love of writing, her academic journey, and career paths, have helped her to experience these aspects in a tremendous way.
