Wise proverbs stick with us and help us navigate life. Our financial decisions might be guided by "a penny saved is a penny earned," or we might remember not to be lazy from "the early bird catches the worm." God has given us a book filled with such memorable wisdom--the Old Testament book of Proverbs. In Living Well, you'll look at a different topic in each chapter and learn how Proverbs can guide us to live wiser, more God-honoring lives. Whether in our finances or our relationships, our approach to work or play, following the way of wisdom is often countercultural, but always best. Living Well gives us the blueprint for such a life--starting with God's own wisdom from the book of Proverbs.

This book tells the truth about women who are leading-in business, in families, in communities all over the country. Women who have largely been silent-so they tell their stories in their own words, because words matter. Names matter. It all matters. What to expect as you move through the book:Establishing your values and creating boundaries to protect what you hold most dear.Knowing when to push harder, and when to rest for a bit.Recognizing when to work on the long run (marathon) versus sprinting through the quick takes.Training and conditioning to be a working mother/caregiver/hobbyist/partner/pet owner.Rest and rejuvenation is necessary every day-the idea of restoration of the Sabbath is good food for thought for she who leads. Even God rested on the seventh day. Why don't we?!Questioning the who in "Whose vision are we seeing?" Ours? Our boss's? Our spouse's? Some social construct? Why is it necessary to understand the vision? And why should you create space for one of your own?Through this body of your own thoughts and journaling and discussing with friends and peers, and in putting in the work of applying the stuff that makes the most sense to you and for you. People matter, you matter, this matters.

Seriously . . . another book that tells you how to live a good life? Don’t we have enough of those? You’d think so. Yet, more people than ever are walking through life disconnected, disengaged, dissatisfied, mired in regret, declining health, and a near maniacal state of gut-wrenching autopilot busyness. Whatever is out there isn’t getting through. We don’t know who to trust. We don’t know what’s real and what’s fantasy. We don’t know how and where to begin and we don’t want to wade through another minute of advice that gives us hope, then saps our time and leaves us empty. How to Live a Good Life is your antidote; a practical and provocative modern-day manual for the pursuit of a life well lived. No need for blind faith or surrender of intelligence; everything you’ll discover is immediately actionable and subject to validation through your own experience. Drawn from the intersection of science, spirituality, and the author’s years-long quest to learn at the feet of masters from nearly every tradition and walk of life, this book offers a simple yet powerful model, the “Good Life Buckets ” —spend 30 days filling your buckets and reclaiming your life. Each day will bring a new, practical yet powerful idea, along with a specific exploration designed to rekindle deep, loving, and compassionate relationships; cultivate vitality, radiance, and graceful ease; and leave you feeling lit up by the way you contribute to the world, like you’re doing the work you were put on the planet to do. How to Live a Good Life is not just a book to be read; it’s a path to possibility, to be walked, then lived.
