Publisher's Summary

New York Times Bestseller

An intimate and evocative memoir one woman’s experience with the universality of grief and the redemptive power of love as she endures her husband’s 84-day battle with lung cancer.

When Steph Catudal met her husband Rivs, she thought that the love, stability, and warmth she shared with her husband had finally dispelled her pent-up anger and grief over the loss of her father and her faith. But when Rivs became ill and was put into coma at the height of the pandemic, the painful memories of her childhood—watching her father die of cancer—came flooding back.

Written with lush lyricism, Steph’s account of how this crisis forced her to confront her past is raw, illuminating, and heartbreaking: her father’s death that wrecked her faith in God and jumpstarted a decade of rebellion, including running away from home and living out of a van at age 16, struggling with alcoholism, and delving into drugs to ease her pain. Sitting by Rivs's bedside, she grappled with the memories of the past and the uncertainties of the future while reckoning with the unknowns of her husband’s illness. Rivs would endure a grueling 84 days in a medically induced coma, eventually undergoing chemo for a similar illness that stole her father.

Like Cheryl Strayed’s Wild, and Michelle Zauner’s Crying in H Mart, Everything All At Once is a heart-wrenching and ultimately uplifting reflection on resilience and a powerful reminder that we can find healing no matter how broken we are.

Love at its finest

This story had me at the very start, following Tommy's story on a fitness program, I eagerly awaited the release of this book. It ended up being different to what I had expected. I was expecting a medical story but instead I got a story about how life almost broke a person but instead made them stronger than they had expected. A true well written journey about a part of Steph's life. I was captured from the start and ejoyed every minute of it. Highly recommend this book, it makes you take a different look on your own life.

Moving and beautifully written

I absolutely loved this story for how it moved my emotions, helped me explore and find new expressions for my own feelings, it's poetic sentences and overall beauty. I'm glad to share this world and time with you Steph and Rivs. I found this book after seeing Steph on the Rich Roll podcast, and I'm so glad for both listens. I enjoyed the narration too. 👏
