Summary

Join me every Monday for a quick burst of inspiration on our Live Inspired Podcast Monday Moment segment.

I never imagined releasing a book during a pandemic, yet could there be a better time to share a message about thinking differently, acting selflessly, dreaming mightily, connecting authentically and living joyfully?

While this week may look a bit different than we planned, I see an even greater reason to apply the lessons I write about in the book.

I’ve learned that true generosity isn’t about giving that which you won’t miss but recognizing the needs of another that are indeed far greater than yours.

100% of all profits from the pre-sale and first week of sales for In Awe are being donated to my favorite organization, Big Brothers Big Sisters.
The profits from the 10,000 – 15,000 books sold during these weeks would have significantly helped me but will help the families within Big Brother Big Sisters of Eastern Missouri far more.
Let’s make the best of all we still have, instead of begrudging all we don’t. Let’s remind individuals of the profound blessing within their lives and the possibilities that remain alive within each day. [Click to tweet.]

0:23.6	For the past three years, I have been researching, reflecting, writing, and editing my second book. It's called In Aw.
0:32.1	For the past 12 months, the majority of decisions we've made organizationally have been focused on propelling us
0:39.1	towards successfully promoting marketing and launching this book in order to touch as many lives
0:45.2	as possible with it. Tomorrow was supposed to be the day that bookstores around the world
0:50.9	unboxed, pulled out, and set up a book with shiny embossed letters and a little red kite
0:58.4	flying over the cover, inviting readers to unleash their inspiration, their meaning,
1:03.8	and their joy.
1:05.3	This was supposed to be the week that we spoke to thousands of attendees at four separate
