Heather Whelpley is coming to speak to the CSB Alumnae Board meeting on Saturday, so I was really excited to read her book. The book triggered a lot of sensitive areas for me, so it's good that I read it. I need to do some of the activities within the book, so that's my next step.
If you are needing to take a step back from a very busy, overworked life, this book may help you.

I really enjoyed this book. I could relate to the stories Heather shared and even had to check myself on being an over achiever while reading it. I hadn’t done the questions at the end of the first chapter so felt I couldn’t move forward reading it. I did get past it and plan to go back and read the book again. There are great life lessons in this book.

Has some great starting off points and great activities. This book is VERY gendered, I found it frustrating.
