About the Book

Love was present.
Capacity was not.

A story about responsibility, heartbreak, love, and hope — and what it takes to rebuild without walking away.

More literary than self-help. Less clinical than psychology. More practical than memoir. Carry It Better sits in the space between what happened and what you do next.

"This book is for anyone climbing.
Anyone striving. Anyone stretched
by what they hold."

About the Author

E.J. Ellsworth

E.J. Ellsworth explores what sustained pressure does to the people carrying it — and what it takes to rebuild without walking away from the life you've built. His work sits between memoir and practice. He is a father of two. Carry It Better is his first book.
