In her early twenties, Dotlich moved to San Francisco. She hoped to find a new life there, but she soon realized that she was still struggling with the same issues that had plagued her in her childhood. She was unhappy and unfulfilled, and she didn't know what to do with her life.

One day, Dotlich was walking on the beach when she came across a sandpiper. The bird was struggling to build a nest, and Dotlich was reminded of her own struggles in life. She realized that she was trying to build a life that wasn't right for her. She was trying to fit into a mold that she didn't belong in.

Dotlich decided to "unbuild" her life. She quit her job, sold her apartment, and moved to a small town in Mexico. She wanted to start over and find her own path in life.

In Mexico, Dotlich began to explore her creativity. She started painting and writing, and she found that she had a passion for both. She also met new people who inspired her and helped her to see the world in a new way.

Over time, Dotlich began to heal from the wounds of her past. She learned to accept herself for who she was, and she found a new sense of purpose in her life. She realized that she was meant to be an artist and a writer, and she was finally able to embrace her true self.

Unbuilding Sandpiper is a powerful and inspiring memoir about the journey of self-discovery and transformation. It is a book that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled with finding their place in the world. Dotlich's story is a reminder that it is never too late to start over and find your true calling.
