Jordan knows how to make you feel like you belong! She has a way of making you feel included and make you feel like you have the highest potential to do whatever you desire! In this book she helps you feel like you are enough and that you are right where you belong! I love that she owns her religion and her writing style is light hearted and easy to read!

I personally love books that feel like I’m sitting across the table, coffee in hand, chatting with a friend—and Jordan Lee Dooley nailed that feeling in Own Your Everyday.

In this book, Jordan speaks straight to the hearts of those struggling to either find their purpose or live it out. What I especially appreciate is that she doesn’t just point out the problem—she gives practical, actionable steps to move forward. She helps us identify the real things that keep us stuck—not just the surface-level stuff, but the deeper roots—and then equips us with helpful, doable ideas to start stepping into our purpose.

One of the biggest takeaways? We can’t truly live out our purpose until we’re standing firm in our identity in Christ. As Jordan says, “I can do what I’m made to do only when I know who I am.”

I’d recommend Own Your Everyday to anyone—though especially to women—who feel stuck and can’t shake the feeling that there has to be more to life than this. It’s equal parts encouragement and practical guidance, all wrapped in a warm, relatable style that makes you feel like Jordan is right there cheering you on.

I loved how this book was part self help, part memoir/personal experience based and part spiritual. I found it to be SO relatable as a fellow perfectionist who also has felt the depths of imposter syndrome. The tone is light and fun while touching on real topics

Own Your Everyday by Jordan Lee Dooley
A motivational and uplifting guide, Own Your Everyday encourages readers to embrace their unique journey with confidence and authenticity. Jordan Lee Dooley’s advice is practical and empowering, making this book an excellent companion for those seeking personal growth and purpose.

i have been reading a chapter a day and soaking up all the info. this book is so encouraging and gives helpful information to get out of your head the lies that you tell yourself. i highly recommend this.

Jordan's writing is always relatable and full of humor. This book was light and easy to digest, which was a pro. I wish at times there was more biblical depth, but she really inspired me to own who I am in Christ and let that overflow into my daily life.

NetGalley review

Cute little book that may be just right for someone looking for the right message, with a plan. Not only does this other use her own life but gives examples on how to over come it per say(don’t want to give to much away)
Wirth a read

Love how Jordan is authentic! The courage to tell her story to uplift and empower others has been wonderful to read through this book!! Jordan has helped me to recognize my fears and how God Word can help me to overcome them!! I've been able to giveyself grace and stop trying to prove myself!! Thank you for sharing your heart, your struggles and your life!!

Read and loved this one. I took so many notes, this really resonated with me and what I was going through at the time. Recommended to everyone.

I think Jordan is a lovely person, and I bet her online presence is great, because her book did feel like she was speaking with you. That having been said I feel like I’m likely not the right audience for this one, at nearly 30 a lot of the college examples didn’t resonate with me in the way they might for someone in or just after that season of life. I do enjoy the sprinkling of faith she has in this book, and enjoyed the layout of the chapter, each was clear and different. All in all ok, but not great.
Thanks to NetGalley, and WaterBrook & Multnomah for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Good book with several slower parts. It was a solid story and there were some relatable parts but not my cup of tea.

I’ve followed Jordan Lee Dooley on social media for years and always appreciate the things she has to share and feel like this book is no different. This book is vulnerable and real and breaks down the lies we are told about who we "should" be rather than embracing and building on who God has made us to be and growing in that identity. Dooley celebrates and encourages readers to continue to find themselves and recognize that their purpose is not what they do, but who they are.

"I began to wonder if maybe God doesn't give us answers because He dares us to spend less time trying to figure out what we're doing and more time having faith in what He's doing." - page 81

Very grateful to the publisher for my free copy through NetGalley, opinions are my own.

Dnf 35%. I’m sorry, as I have followed Jordan closely in the past and enjoyed her content; but this is a weird mix of condescending and self-serving. I struggle to feel like I relate to any of these stories. I think this is a very easy trap to fall into: in trying to make yourself relatable, you end up trying too hard. In the end, I came away from each chapter feeling like I do when someone is trying to be my friend but doesn’t actually want to get to know me at all. I look forward to exploring the author’s content in the future though!

“And I hope you feel as though you’re sitting on the floor eating pizza with me in our pajamas and not as though I’m talking at you from a pulpit” — Her hope for this book exceeded this expectation. Lots of tough love and encouragement to be who God has created you to be. Loved this book!

Thank you to WaterBrook & Multnomah and Netgalley for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I didn't upload this book before it was archives, so I won't be giving a review to the publisher or outside places.

I've been following Jordan on social media for years. She writes in a way that is easy to understand and relatable. Thank you for the access to this book!

I loved loved loved this book!! I went to Jordan's book signing, and it was magical. 10/10 recommend to anyone who is in a waiting period and is trying to figure out how to embrace their ordinary.

Do you ever feel pressure to find purpose? What is your reason for being on this earth? Everybody tells you to go after your dreams and aspirations, but what if we don't have those figured out? Jordan looks at imposter syndrome, disappointment, shame, comparison, perfectionism, and distraction in this book; things that are holding us back from living a purposeful life. She says mindset is what holds us back, not our skills. If you aspire to own your own business or Etsy shop, this is an inspirational story that is worth listening to. It was just the story I needed to listen to, as I have wanted to start a second Etsy shop, but just haven't felt qualified or had that creative drive, but this book has given me that push I needed to move forward and get unstuck. There are a few parts that were a little far reaching and felt like they were there just for fluff, but the story as a whole does have meaning and is worth listening to.

I love Jordan's passion she has in her YouTube videos. One of the reason I was excited to get my hands on her book. It was great read and encouragement for me.

Jordan Lee Dooley’s Own Your Everyday is very inspiring. I felt better and more motivated after I finished reading it. In this day and age, the status quo puts a lot of pressure on me, pinning me down to the ground, stopping me from finding my authentic self and living the true purpose of my life -- to flourish, not to do things just for the show.

Reading OYE is like talking with a friend who is supportive and understanding. Dooley was so open in sharing her own experiences and lessons on how to deal with the pressure and how to live life to the fullest despite challenges.

I highly recommend it to women who are looking for ways how to deal with the societal pressures and its effects.
