Just Who We Are

My story of grit, grace, and identity is beautiful and messy. It’s a love story; it’s about losses and wins. It’s not a heroic journey or how I became famous or wealthy. It’s the story of what happens when life is unfair and can still be exhilarating. It’s about the choices we make and how the only thing that really matters is how we live, discovering along the way, just who we are.

" In Just Who We Are , Robyn Stecher's vivid writing is well-matched to the colorful people, places and events she introduces us to. Stecher serves readers an excellent charcuterie of life events and we feel we are by her side throughout [...] I predict this will be the next Tales of the City. Most likely on Netflix." David Roche, world renown inspirational humorist, "Robyn Stecher claims she is no hero, but she is the best kind of hero- not the fearless one, the one who consistently empowers others." Joe Moglia, Former CEO and Chairman TD Ameritrade, Former head Football Coach Coastal Carolina University, " Fatal Intent rings with thrilling authenticity. Tammy Euliano writes with convincing authority, immersing us in a world only a doctor truly knows." Tess Gerritsen, New York Times best-selling author, "Robyn Stecher, shares with tremendous feeling, wisdom, and insight the very challenging journey she has taken. Throughout work, marriage, and devoted motherhood, she never falters in her extraordinary capacity to love. I found Just Who We Are deeply moving." Blythe Danner, Emmy and Tony award winning actress, "Robyn Stecher leaves her heart wide open on every page of Just Who We Are . Robyn is the epitome of the self-made woman you will want to share with, cry with, laugh with and invite to a slumber party where you can stay up all night talking." Ashley Wren Collins, Award winning producer, actress, and author
