All That Comes After
Three women. One Southern city. And a deeply moving story of self-discovery and transformation.
Megan, Amy, and Sarah occupy different circles of Raleigh, NC, a city stitched together with carpool lines, backyard get-togethers, and Saturday soccer games. They don't know it, but they, too, are bound together, in the quiet ache of everything they've sacrificed for the lives they thought they wanted.
Megan has created a picture-perfect life, until three unexpected words unravel the world she so carefully built. Amy's poured everything into being a mother, slowly losing sight of the woman she used to be until the cracks can no longer be ignored. And Sarah, once fiercely devoted to her career, is unmoored by a sudden loss that shakes the foundation of who she believed herself to be.
Each of them must confront the complexity of motherhood-the unbridled love for your children, grief for your loss of identity, gratitude for your life, and anger for the dreams unrealized-while rediscovering themselves and building a new life on their terms.
All That Comes After is a poignant and powerful exploration of motherhood, transformation, and the courage it takes to reclaim yourself. Through the lens of three very relatable heroines, it asks the question: What happens when the life you thought you wanted isn't the life you're meant to live?
