Everybody sees the tip. Nobody asks what's underneath.

At forty years old, Jena has built a life that looks like she has it together. She's a mother, a partner, a professional, a protector-and depending on who you ask, a little bit of a smart-ass.

She didn't walk into therapy looking to be fixed.

She damn sure didn't plan on digging up the past.

But when memories she thought she'd buried begin showing up in places they don't belong, Jena finds herself sitting across from Dr. Cynthia Robineau with one simple goal: figure out what the hell is going on.

What begins as therapy becomes an excavation of childhood, family, survival, motherhood, and the experiences Jena learned to live through long before she understood what they meant. One memory leads to another. Questions become uncomfortable. Jokes stop landing. And the stories she has told herself for years begin changing shape.

Somewhere between what she remembers, what she doesn't, and what she never thought to question, Jena begins to realize that surviving something and understanding what it did to you are two very different things.

Maybe the life everyone could see was only the tip.

Because the most dangerous part of an iceberg isn't what sits above the water. It's everything you never knew was underneath.

The Hidden Iceberg is a raw, darkly humorous memoir about childhood trauma, survival, family, motherhood, therapy, and what happens when a woman who has spent her entire life reading everybody else finally starts reading herself.

You can ask.

Just know-you might not be ready for the answer.
