Liv’s book: Painting the Landscape of Loneliness
The Drive to Connect & Strategies to Identify Needs
Available at Amazon in all formats!
This is a truly beautiful memoir, on multiple levels. As a creative, Liv has taken a very creative approach to the genre. Hand-written notes, stories, stats, the "hard things" list - it's all very meaningful, personal, and highly readable. I felt gently pulled through the book by the variety and flow of the content and the artistic flourishes. The central theme of loneliness is so timely and very important.
~ Dr. Susan Biali Haas, M.D., bestselling author of The Resilient Life

“CRAVING CONNECTION”
Loneliness "is the dashboard light indicator that something is wrong in your mental and emotional well-being.” Finding a creative outlet “allows us to process emotions, including loneliness, while developing skills and finding new interests.” - Liv Ash
Liv is the first researcher to have examined the relationship between loneliness & law students with her award-winning 2019 law school thesis. Liv expanded this research in 2022 when she published Loneliness in COVID-19, Life, and Law with co-author, Peter H. Huang, in Health Matrix: The Journal of Law-Medicine. In 2024, Liv published her first book, blending story with science. Liv has been featured on podcasts, magazines, state bar publications, and & legal well-being initiatives.
