8 years ago, our family took a huge leap of faith and acted on a prompting from God to move to New Zealand. We lived there for 2 years and had amazing and priceless experiences. Experiences that literally changed me. That leap led to another leap and our family traveled the world for a year. We visited 17 countries and 29 states. Along that journey, we were led to move to Italy. And again, we had incredible experiences that molded us into different people.
At different times, my dear friend and my uncle encouraged me to write a book. I just scoffed at their idea. But God kept whispering to me over and over until I gave in! And here we are. 2 years after I committed to writing a book, it is finished!
Meant for More
But what’s my book about? I had a hard time trying to justify writing a book. What did I have to say? What did people need to hear? Once I made the commitment to write, I woke up early every morning and worked on it for 30 minutes a day. God gave me the words to give to you. He helped me find my voice and my message. And I did it a little at a time.
The words poured from my head to my fingertips to the computer. My message was simple: you need the confidence to change because you were meant for more!
It’s so easy to get stuck in the daily grind. Stuck in our comfort zone. Stuck in our bubble. But we weren’t meant to come to earth to be complacent. God wants us to grow! God wants us to learn! We were made for more!
How Do You Get the Confidence to Change?
You might be thinking, this sounds really great! But how do I even begin? How do I get the confidence to change and to take the first scary step forward? Buy this book. Let my story inspire you to change. Let God speak to you as you read it. And then be brave. God’s plan is always better than our plan. Let His plan take over.
You might be prompted to make a small change in your life. You might feel like you need to make a hug change in your life. You might feel the nudge to do something in between. However you feel like you need to change, take the brave and courageous step forward and do it. Take baby steps. Baby steps are better than no steps at all!
Let My Story Speak to You
This is a book about me, but really it’s a book that’s meant to be about you. I want you to pretend like I’m sitting across from you at a coffee shop and we’re having a chat like life time friends. I want you to feel moved and inspired by reading my story. I want my story to move you into action!
Don’t let the hard things in life hold you back from the good. Having someone in your corner cheering you on can give you the confidence you need to change. Let me be your cheerleader.
You Were Meant for More!
When God gives you inspiration to change, He will provide the way. He will give you the confidence to keep moving forward. He will give you the tools, energy, and willpower to reach your goal.
You were meant for so much more than the life you’re currently living! You were meant to learn, grow, and change!
