“Finding Sparkle in the Sh*t Show”

Finding Sparkle in the Shit Show is a raw, funny, and deeply human memoir about navigating life’s messiest moments with grit, humor, and grace. From losing her parents and surviving cancer in her teens to facing a second diagnosis while raising an infant and running a company, Amanda Dugger shows what it means to keep finding light—sparkle, even—amid chaos, grief, and hospital gowns. Along the way, her father’s memory, a fridge full of ham, and a fierce sense of humor remind her that love and laughter can carry us through just about anything
