Description
Are you ready for a new way of seeing your time? Have you been told you can have it all, only to end up exhausted and occasionally out of sorts with the people you love? Hold yourself and those you love to a more life-giving standard in Grace, Not Perfection, and allow that grace to seep into your days, your family, and your heart.
As a busy wife, mother, and entrepreneur, Emily Ley came to a point when she suddenly realized she couldn't do it all. She needed to simplify her life, organize her days, and prioritize her priorities. She decided to hold herself to a standard of grace rather than perfection. This mantra led to the creation of her bestselling Simplified® planner. By embracing grace, not perfection, you will discover how to:
- Simplify your life by simplifying three major areas: your space, your time, and your mind
- Create effective to-do lists and get through them one step at a time
- Center your day around an intentionally slower rhythm of life with various strategies
Grace, Not Perfection is for:
- Moms, ages 25-50
- Mother's Day, National Best Friend Day, birthdays, and holiday gifts
Designed with Emily Ley's signature aesthetic, gorgeous photography, and a beautiful ribbon marker, this book gives women tangible ways to simplify their lives to give space to what matters most.

Very uplifting book. Enjoyable to read and would be a perfect book for women of various religions. Nice gift to give.

This is a beautiful book - in its encouraging words and crisp layout. It is a mix of memoir, inspiration, and practical self-help written for moms, though I think women who don't have children could appreciate it as well. It certainly spoke to me. Grace not perfection. I love that. I need to put signs that say that everywhere I look.

I really loved this book. It was helpful and insightful, but didn't come off preachy or redundant. I'm considering buying a physical copy for my bookshelf --something I don't do often!

Great read that embraces grace over perfection and reiterating that perfection doesn't exist. This was a quick and easy read with a lot of great tips for women, especially those who are trying to figure out how to balance everything in their lives, but balance doesn't really exist either. She tells us that we need to give ourselves grace and be content with wherever we are in our lives during whatever season we are in. She also reminds us that life is made up of different seasons and each one won't last forever, so embrace it while you're in it. I know that is easier said than done, but still seems like good advice. She talks about so much stuff in this book from simplifying your time, space, and life, to following your calling whatever it may be. Definitely recommend for anyone interested in living a slower content simplified life, who wants to embrace real life and step away from chasing the fantasy of perfection.
