“Kate Bowler is the only one we can trust to tell us the truth. This book will pen minds and warm hearts.” -- Glennon Doyle, author of the #1 NYT Bestseller UntamedIt’s hard to give up on the feeling that the life you want is just out of reach. A beach body by summer. A trip to Disneyland around the corner. A promotion on the horizon. Everyone wants to believe that they are headed toward good, better, best. But what happens when the life you hoped for is put on hold indefinitely?
