About this listen

How the cat she never wanted taught her the lessons she never knew she needed.

It was not love at first sight for Jinx and Cynthia. The long-haired, dandruff-ridden creature wasn’t Cynthia’s dream for a new family pet. And Jinx was equally unimpressed with her.

Jinx’s arrival marked a dramatic turning point in Cynthia’s life. Soon after, she endured a devastating loss and battled grief, loneliness, and depression. Throughout the turmoil, Cynthia and Jinx progressed from sparring partners, to reluctant roommates, to friends. When Cynthia finally decided to take her life back, she brought Jinx along for the ride.

Side by side, they weathered all the excitement, disappointment, mishaps, and adventures that come with finding happiness and redefining your life. Through it all, Jinx was an unexpected source of comfort, affection, and valuable life lessons. Because sometimes the thing you most need shows up in the way you least expect.

Full of growth and adventure

This true story is full of so many forks in the road for Cynthia. Those kind of forks in life where you must choose the right side or be doomed. She may have chosen poorly at times in her life (most of us can relate) that led to more heartache and pain, but she takes you on an emotional adventure (in a light hearted way) as she grows and learns that her life is full of decision making moments that can lead her into happiness or more despair. Her cat’s part in the story is bigger and spunkier than expected. I fell in love with Mr. Jinx and found some of the most emotional aspects of the story were about Jinx’s hardships as he does life with Cynthia. I’m already thinking of people in my life that could truly use the lessons in this book to have a better, happier, more fulfilled life. While listening to Cynthia’s story, I was reminded of how many of our decisions effect those around us (our kids, spouse, parents, even our pets) and how important it is to prioritize ourselves, so we are able to radiate the good stuff with those we love the most. Easy, quick, concise, inspirational and might I say fun? Thank you Cynthia!
