Explore Thea's Journey in 'The Angle of Vanishing Stability': A Tale of Love, Loss, and Self-Discovery with Sally Lee Stewart :SMU67

In this episode, I am having a conversation with Sally Lee Stewart, who is an amazing Mother, elementary education specialist & author, and also a wonderful oceanographer. Recently she published her first Novel " The Ange of Vanishing Stability" It's about Thea West, a Northern Californian teenager growing up in the late sixties and early seventies, who is one of five daughters trying to stay afloat amid the psychologically catastrophic dynamic between her parents—a covert and commanding mother and an ocean-yachtsman father. 

A talented sailor and businessman, Mr. West suffers from crippling alcoholism, with frequent rages that mask his fragility. Thea longs to know how to sail, but in her world, traversing the water is a skill that belongs only to men, and she’s terrified to ask her larger-than-life father to teach her. Self-love and Self-discovery play an important role in everyone's life because it gives us immense strength to believe in ourselves and overcome any challenges.

Sally is also an educator, As a clinician she always learned the background of a given child and then made a point to get to know them, their experience at school, and their likes and dislikes. One of her first questions was, when you feel anger, what do you do? One child answered, "Breathe." I was impressed.

After her student surveys, she found the students felt trusting toward her and also respected her because she took the time to get to know them as autonomous beings with feelings, history, experience, and an opinion.

Sally also loves to explore Ocean, She lives on a cooperatively grazed ten-acre farm in the coastal hills of Northern California and sails on the San Francisco Bay. For her upcoming expedition, she has already prepared herself and leaving tomorrow for her long water tour.
