A flourishing life is possible - no perfection required!
Women often feel like they have to have it all together in order to live meaningful lives. Instead they feel inadequate, overwhelmed, and exhausted as they try to figure out how to do it all. Author, business owner, and mom to three Lara Casey offers sound and grace-filled advice: "We can't do it all and do it well. But we can choose to cultivate what matters."
Welcome to the journey of getting messy in the rich soil of possibility - embracing imperfect, grace-filled progress to grow a life of joy.
Written as part encouragement anthem and part practical guide, Cultivate offers wisdom from God's word alongside lessons Lara has learned in her garden. Woven throughout is her personal story that helps release listeners from the pressure to achieve and gives them freedom to move from planning to planting a meaningful legacy. "It's in the imperfect - the mess of the dirt - that good things grow," Casey reminds listeners. "Peonies grow through the dirt, and so do we." Listeners will learn to embrace the seasons they're in, finding balance as they interact in fresh ways with their current life scenarios, with God, and in the communities where they are planted.
Special features include:
Actionable "Cultivate It" prompts throughout the book
A 10-week "Cultivate Together" discussion guide, with questions for small groups
"Grace from the Garden" vignettes providing encouragement and inspiration
Find the joy and the freedom that comes in cultivating what matters, little by little, with God's transforming grace.
You were created for a purpose, and it's time to make it happen.
Make It Happen is the story of how I surrendered my fear, took the leap, and got a life. In my case, a perfectly imperfect, fulfilling life as a mama, a working woman, and a grateful wife. This is the story of how I chose to make "it"—a greater purpose than mine—happen, and how you can too.
Make It Happen is for
women who find themselves worried, anxious, and completely overwhelmed by the constant chase for perfection
those seeking the courage to jump into a new venture
working women who are struggling to "do it all"
weary wives and moms looking for relief from burning the candle at both ends
anyone who dreams of a life lived not by accident, but on purpose
Your time has come to take a leap of faith. Join me as we surrender our fears, end the chase for perfection, and say yes to cultivating the meaningful lives God desires for us.
You know all those things you've always wanted to do?
You should go do them.
