“Fatigue makes cowards of us all.”
Shaunti Feldhahn, The Life Ready Woman: Thriving in a Do-It-All World

“Just as you need the man in your life to love you unconditionally, even when you’re not particularly lovable, your man needs you to demonstrate your respect for him regardless of whether he’s meeting your expectations at the moment.”
Shaunti Feldhahn, For Women Only: What You Need to Know about the Inner Lives of Men

“It's so tempting to try to do it all, so as not to miss out. But to do all of those 'good things' means you'll do none of them well.”
Shaunti Feldhahn, The Life Ready Woman: Thriving in a Do-It-All World
