An inspiring clarion call for Christian women who often feel pressured to choose between seemingly mutually exclusive options: career and family.
Leadership-lifestyle blogger and inspirational TV personality, Caitlyn Scaggs draws from her eclectic background and Christian principles to offer practical insight and encouragement to women striving to lead a fulfilling and complete life. She champions a new approach—how to find balance between seemingly opposing forces and live out what you were created to do.
With inspirational stories from her life and career alongside those of others' she’s met along the way, Scaggs provides insight on how to thrive in your roles in both career and family life. She shows you can boldly embrace both even when facing obstacles. She encourages readers to contemplate the choices they feel torn between. She then urges a different approach to navigating personal and professional lives, with the goal of finding balance, purpose, and satisfaction. Each chapter includes practical takeaways and actionable steps that invite readers to apply the insight shared to their own lives. Scaggs writes with the modern Christian woman in mind, but her engaging style and thoughtful insight will also appeal to women of all faiths and backgrounds.
