What do you do with a grief that has no funeral?

The Empty Chair is for everyone who grew up waiting — for a father who didn't come, didn't stay, or was right there and still somehow unreachable. It's for the woman who keeps choosing men who leave. For the man who built everything and still feels like nothing. For anyone who has spent years saying "I'm fine" while carrying a wound that never had a name.

This book gives it a name.

With raw honesty and deep compassion, Mona B. Queen walks you through the real impact of father absence — on your brain, your relationships, your self-worth, and your identity. More importantly, she shows you the way out. Through attachment science, trauma research, and practical healing tools, The Empty Chair helps you understand what happened, feel what needs to be felt, and finally set down a weight that was never yours to carry.

You were worth showing up for. It's time you started living like it.
