What's It All About?

Sophie is hungry for promotion, but when she rejects her new boss's advances, he sets out to destroy more than her career. As her life falls apart, she tries to escape the black cloud that threatens to overwhelm her - with disastrous results.

Will she wake up in time to find the happiness, success and love she secretly craves?

When Christof survives a car crash that kills his father, he inherits more than guilt. A mountain of hidden debt risks destroying the cherry farm his family has called home for generations.

But Christof's work in Milan wants him to dig up dirt on the mafia - and distractions could be deadly. Can he save the farm, beat the mafia and learn one of life's most important lessons, before it's too late?

You Take Yourself With You is a journey of courage, hope, humour, love and realising we're not alone.

Why Clare Josa Wrote You Take Yourself With You

Clare Josa
Author of You Take Yourself With You

Clare Josa is the author of five life-changing non-fiction books and You Take Yourself With You is her first novel.

She spent 30 years dreaming of writing a novel, but a throwaway comment from an English teacher, back in her teens, meant she convinced herself she couldn’t think of a good story. And she was right. Then, one morning, she did some inner block-clearing work - the kind she does with her clients - and 2 days later a series of 7 novels had been drafted. Less than six months later, You Take Yourself With You was in the shops.

In You Take Yourself With You Clare wanted to explore what happens when life gets tough and how we subconsciously get in the way of our own happiness and fulfilment, which is how Sophie’s and Christof’s journeys were born. Unafraid to tackle challenging topics like PTSD, guilt, obligation, self-doubt, abuse and depression, You Take Yourself With You is a journey of growth and hope and realising that you’re not alone in life - deep-acting insights into the human condition, served up with a generous dollop of humour.

When not writing or running workshops for Passionate World Changers, Clare's secret addictions are experimenting with fermented food in her kitchen, hanging out somewhere sunny with her family, and hiding in her hammock under a willow tree, losing herself in a great book.
