The Big Reveal: My New Book for Working Moms

Faithful friends, I have some news that I am giddy to share with you. For nearly two years I have been working on my new book, and I’m finally going to tell you all about it.

My new book, Stretched Too Thin: How Working Moms Can Lose the Guilt, Work Smarter, and Thrive is releasing September 18, just four months from now.

I hope you love the cover as much as I do. I’m so excited about it. We worked so hard to create a cover that communicated the tension and “stretched” feelings of working motherhood, while also offering the white space and boundaries than can be created. It was designed by Connie Gabbert, who designed The Fringe Hours, as well as covers by other authors you love including Tsh Oxenreider, Bob Goff, Rachel Held Evans and more. The book was supposed to be softcover, but the publisher loved the content so much that they decided to make it hardback!

If you work in any capacity – be it a 40-hour a week corporate America job or a side hustle selling for an MLM or anything in between, this book is for you. As a working mom life can often feel like we’re living stretched too thin. We want to thrive personally and professionally, but the day to day responsibilities and mental load can make that feel impossible. This book covers how to:

• work and parent guilt-free
• set achievable goals
• discover more flexibility
• establish clear work boundaries
• develop home management solutions
• become more efficient and less stressed
• prioritize self-care
• invest in your marriage
• cultivate deeper friendships

Stretched Too Thin is an empowering book for working moms who want to make changes and live with contentment. There is not a book like it in the marketplace today — trust me, I’ve looked! I firmly believe Stretched Too Thin offers practical guidance that can totally transform the way moms are working, parenting and living today.

Guaranteed lowest price: This is huge and honestly, the reason I pre-order books all the time. When you pre-order a book (on Amazon), you lock in the lowest price between now and the book’s release date. So if Stretched Too Thin drops from $22 to $11 one day in July, you will get it for $11. (We definitely expect the price to drop as the release date draws near! Target already has it for 30% off.) Pre-order Stretched Too Thin today and you will be sure to get the lowest price, without ever having to pay attention to price drops.

You pay nothing now: Yep, if you chose to pre-order on Amazon, you won’t be charged until the day the book ships. So today, know that when you click pre-order, you won’t pay a cent until September. Essentially by pre-ordering you are telling them, I want this book – be sure to have enough in stock!

Get it first: It’s fun to be first! When you pre-order, you’ll receive the book on release day (and sometimes the day before).

Freebies: We are putting together some amazing freebies and giveaways in the upcoming months. Pre-ordering ensures you will have access to everything.

It’s a gift you give yourself: When you pre-order a book, you oftentimes forget about it, which means, when it arrives, its like a magical gift just for you. Stretched Too Thin is a book you deserve. Give yourself this gift.

Show your support: Pre-orders help ensure online outlets have stock of a book and bookstores determine if they want to host a book signing. The more pre-orders, the more books retailers will order and the more likely signing events will be planned. I’d love to meet you in person!

My Sincere Thanks

The only reason any of this is possible is because of you. Please accept my sincerest thanks for being a part of this journey. Your time here is a gift and I am so grateful for your support in this endeavor. I hope that Stretched Too Thin resonates with you.
