Her book
Yellow Paint takes us on an epic journey through the lowest moments of her life and how she turned things around. She draws on her own experiences in both her personal and professional life to create a book that keeps you hooked from the first page to the last.
The book begins with what Goslin refers to as her “rock bottom.” This moment was characterized by a suicidal crisis as a result of illness and loss. Her turning point came in the most unexpected manner: when she helped her parents paint her apartment lemony yellow. This simple act became a moment of rebirth.
The name “yellow paint” represents light, choice and self-reclamation, both literal and metaphorical. Goslin uses music as a thematic companion for each chapter, beginning with a QR code that links to a song that sets the emotional tone for what is to come. We get some amazing songs, such as the popular
Paint It Black by the famous band The Rolling Stones.
In addition, Goslin discusses her structured therapeutic framework, the KG Method, which integrates Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and emotionally focused interventions. Goslin is a registered psychotherapist who explores these themes professionally.
Paint It Black also touches on other themes such as intimacy, shame, intergenerational trauma, and parenting. Goslin invites us to examine our own “invitations to grow”- the events in our lives that at first appear as crises but are actually opportunities for us to have a big and permanent change.
Overall, Goslin’s book is recommended for those seeking to heal from trauma or going through major life transitions. It’s also an ideal book for therapists, coaches, and mental health professionals, as well as fans of Brené Brown or Glennon Doyle.
