Love can be easy if you have faith. Confetti is a book where she foreshadows her own life.

What does Confetti mean? Jolie defined Confetti as a celebration of times, happiness, the finality of things, new beginnings, closing chapters, newness, and tears of pain. These are all emotions found in her love story. That is a unique way to define Confetti.

With every author’s story, there is always a message for the readers to take away after reading the story. We asked Jolie, what type of message she wants her audience to walk away with? She gave 8 key points for readers to take with them after reading Confetti.

• Love is Easy and it does not have to hurt.

• Love does not have to be hard with the right person

• You don’t have to settle with just anyone to be in a relationship.

• You can have everything in a person just be patient.

• Continue to be yourself and someone will vibe with you.

• You don’t have to deal with drama or pain and believe that’s happiness.

• Your past does not have to be your future.

• You control what you deal with

These key take away points will lead you on the path to your very own Confetti. Powerful points like these make you ask the author, who inspired her to write? Surprisingly, Jolie’s therapist inspired her to write by giving her an assignment on happiness. That assignment turned into her first book.

Her therapist continues to inspire Jolie to put her feelings down on paper and allow it to manifest itself. Her book came from the desire to love so Jolie wrote down exactly what she wanted. We are taught to write down our dreams, desires, and goals for them to be manifested into reality. By doing this, we activate a new mindset to create what our hearts desire to see.

Jolie’s advice to aspiring writers is to just do it. You are the only thing holding you back. It’s time to take charge of your dreams and be great. Know that the road can be tedious and the process long, just stay the course. She highly recommends aspiring writers get a mentor that will guide, give advice, and walk them through the process.
