Sounds like an interesting read.
Timely message! I’ve been thinking a lot about who I am, and who am not is certainly a line of thinking that parallels. I’m working on letting these things go, letting them free to be me or free to go. I’d love to read this book as part of the process! I love resources that support my thinking, particularly Godly ones.

This book sounds amazing! I like the concept of eliminating who you aren’t. It reminds me of the sculptor who mentioned chipping away the stone that ISN’T the subject of the sculpture.
Losing who you are not sounds so freeing…and yet also a little scary. It can be hard to discern who God designed me to be when there are so many voices (both outside and inside my head) telling me who I am. I would love to learn more about how to figure that out. Now that I am middle aged, I feel pressure to stop making mistakes and start making actual progress in life.
So I must really need this book – was having problems posting and ended up posting several times – Oops! ?
Loved listening to both your podcasts about Exhale this morning! I’m the more life experienced member of a book club with a lot of young moms. I think this would be a great book for us to read and discuss! Would love to have a copy! Thanks for your podcasts – I love them both! It’s like sitting around with my girlfriends each week!
