About this listen
Do you set your own needs aside as you help others? Whether we are filling a sippy cup, carpooling to endless soccer games, or helping colleagues with their emergencies at work, many of us put ourselves second every day. We end up exhausted, empty, and frustrated. Entrepreneur and best-selling author Lisa Leonard wants to help women let go of the burdens they were never meant to carry and learn how to fully enjoy life.
Through 20 simple invitations to be authentically yourself, Lisa helps you explore what life can look like when you give yourself permission to:
- be honest
- be real
- be messy
- be loud
- be loved by God
Be You is a beautifully designed self-help book with journaling lines, self-help activities, and 20 personal entries from Lisa that invite you to embrace the real you. Inside you’ll:
- Overcome lies you believed about yourself by identifying the truth
- Embark on 10-minute meditation exercises to help you identify that you’re enough
- Create and memorize affirmations to build your confidence and self-esteem
- Create your own manifesto
Be You is a thoughtful gift for the women in your life who do too much. With its colorful interior design and peaceful feel, Be You invites you and those you love to rest in God's life-giving grace on even the busiest days. Here you will find the you who lives life with joy as you receive God's love - just as you are. Stop trying to be all things to all people so you can find joy in who God created you to be.

Story
There is a voice of longing inside each woman. We strive so mightily to be good: good partners, daughters, mothers, employees, and friends. We hope all this striving will make us feel alive. Instead, it leaves us feeling weary, stuck, overwhelmed, and underwhelmed. We look at our lives and wonder: Wasn’t it all supposed to be more beautiful than this? We quickly silence that question, telling ourselves to be grateful, hiding our discontent—even from ourselves.

Tiffany can't avoid being funny: it's just who she is. But The Last Black Unicorn is so much more than a side-splittingly hilarious collection of essays - it's a memoir of the struggles of one woman who came from nothing and nowhere. A woman who was able to achieve her dreams by reveling in her pain and awkwardness, showing the world who she really is, and inspiring others through the power of laughter.

Story
When it comes to the “hard seasons” of life—the death of a loved one, divorce, loss of a job—transformation seems impossible when grief and uncertainty dominate your days. Especially when, as Didn’t See that Coming reveals, no one asks to have their future completely rearranged for them. But, as Rachel Hollis writes, it is up to you how you come through your pain—you can come through changed for the better, having learned and grown, or stuck in place where your identity becomes rooted in what hurt you.

Why do moms find themselves settling for a depleted and frustrated existence when motherhood is truly one of the greatest gifts from God? Being a mom is one of the most important-yet-difficult roles a woman will ever fill. Deep in their hearts, many women believe they are failing their families, are emotionally anemic, and are utterly helpless to maintain their peace while raising kids. As a result, hearts and homes are constantly defeated by the "peace pirates" that are allowed to take away the security God paid for His children to have.

Forget hustle harder. Forget a mandatory 5 a.m. wake-up. Forget outlining your life plan in six-month, one-year, and five-year spans. We're living in a cultural shift as we reframe our perspectives around the purpose of work, what work/life balance really means, and how we want to spend our time on this planet. In her first book, Jenna Kutcher—entrepreneur, photographer, influencer, teacher, mom, and host of the wildly popular Goal Digger podcast—shares her philosophy on how to live a life that exists outside the tired cliché of “having it all.”

Do you worry that you're messing up your kids? Do you get stressed when you think about their futures? New York Times best-selling author Crystal Paine knows how you feel. A mom of four, Crystal has struggled with anxiety over parenting. She wanted to parent with grace, instead of a system of rules where kids are expected to do all the right things. She wanted to be a safe place for her children, and she definitely didn't want to be remembered as the sort of mom who yelled, wounded her kids with words, or worse, cared more about her reputation than her kids' hearts.
