Libidos and Life Lessons: A Memoir

A painfully honest and highly relatable account of a girl making her way through the world of dating. Through breakups, heartbreak and Covid, from realising putting out doesn't equal love to pussy gazing workshops, Mariella starts to realise that maybe she should start with herself. Looking internally for the first time, she goes on a quest to find out who she is and what she wants from a relationship with herself as well as others.

Along the way, she experiences grief and ghosting.

Break-ups and being batshit crazy.

Sexuality and self-sufficiency, and realising men do not hold the answer to true fulfilment.

Eventually, she discovers that learning to love and accept yourself is the ultimate answer.

Prepare yourself to join Mariella on this wild and wonderful journey - there will be laughs, there will be tears, but most of all, there will be love.

Mariella Pearson took up writing in lockdown, when her beloved dog had had enough of her taking him out on marathon walks, and realised that through her writing she could make other women feel less alone.

Mariella loves to empower other women, and is always fascinated to learn more about how she operates, so she can be the best version of herself.

Her ability to laugh at herself through the chaos of life is infectious, helping us all to take life more lightly.
