  Stacey pulls back the curtain on her life with humor, grace, and raw honesty, diving into everything from the messy, beautiful moments of motherhood to the complicated love of self-acceptance. With a healthy dose of wit and a sprinkle of sass, she proves that even in the most chaotic chapters, there’s always room for a little laughter—and a lot of grace. 
  This audiobook is a heartfelt and hilarious journey through pain, healing, and the absurdity of life. If you’ve ever faced a tough break, had your heart broken, or simply had a meltdown over spilled coffee, you’ll feel right at home. Stacey’s voice will remind you that even in your darkest moments, you're still worthy of love—and a really strong cup of coffee. 
  “I Wear My Cape Under My Dress” is more than a story of survival—it’s a reminder that sometimes, being a superhero is just about showing up with your messy hair, your coffee-stained shirt, and a heart that’s still willing to love. 
  So buckle up. It’s going to be a wild ride—and there will be laughter along the way. (And maybe a few tears, too. But mostly laughter.)
