Soul Audit: A Not-So-Perfect, Broadly Spiritual (Or Not) Guide to Aligning Your Life is a funny, honest, and deeply human exploration of what it means to live in alignment with your soul-even when life is messy, imperfect, and not at all what you expected.

Blending storytelling, therapeutic insight, and humor, licensed therapist and writer Kirk Sheppard invites readers to stop chasing perfection and start paying attention to the real signs of growth: less hiding, fewer emotional spirals, and more moments of quiet joy. With warmth and irreverence, he walks alongside readers through the messy middle of adulthood, offering reflections on identity, shame, grief, time, spirituality, friendship, the body, and work.

Through relatable client stories (fictionalized for confidentiality), personal anecdotes, and practical soul audit exercises, Sheppard shows that alignment isn't about becoming a polished, idealized version of yourself-it's about building a life that feels like your own. One honest choice at a time.

Written for anyone who has ever felt out of step with their own life, Soul Audit is an invitation to get curious about where you're living out of alignment-and to start making small, realigned choices without judgment or perfectionism. It's not a manual for self-optimization. It's a reminder that authenticity matters more than image, and that living well is less about being impressive and more about being present.

Whether you're wrestling with anger, rebuilding your relationship with your body, grieving what could have been, or rediscovering joy in unexpected places, this book offers a compassionate, funny, and practical guide to coming home to yourself-probably.

For fans of Brené Brown, Glennon Doyle, Mel Robbins, and anyone who prefers their self-help with a side of humor, Soul Audit is a new kind of roadmap: imperfect, practical, and fiercely kind.
