The Fringe Hours-Launch Team

Through one of my favorite blogs, www.moneysavingmom.com, I was introduced to Jessica Turner and began following  her blog, www.themomcreative.com, as well as her Instagram .  Her new book, The Fringe Hours,  will be out in February 2015 and I recently learned that they were looking for individuals who were interested in being part of the launch team; people to read the book before it's release, give feedback, and share excitement about it.  Last week I filled out the online form in hopes of being chosen as part of that launch team.  Today I received an e-mail saying I had been chosen and my copy of the book would be arriving soon!  I am so excited for this opportunity and can hardly wait to crack open her book!  I'm hoping to share some of my experience, feedback, photos, etc. here,  which is why I wanted to tell a bit about it.  Here's a little about Jessica's book, taken from Amazon.com. 


"Every woman has had this experience: you get to the end of the day and realize you did nothing for you. And if you go days, weeks, or even months in this cycle, you begin to feel like you have lost a bit of yourself.

While life is busy with a litany of must-dos--work, child-rearing, keeping house, grocery shopping, laundry and on and on--women do not have to push their own needs aside. Yet this is often what happens. There's just no time, right? Wrong.

In this practical and liberating book, Jessica Turner empowers women to take back pockets of time they already have in their day in order to practice self-care and do the things they love. Turner uses her own experiences and those of women across the country to teach readers how to balance their many responsibilities while still taking time to invest in themselves. She also addresses barriers to this lifestyle, such as comparison and guilt, and demonstrates how eliminating these feelings and making changes to one's schedule will make the reader a better wife, mother, and friend.

Perfect for any woman who is doing everything for everyone--except herself--The Fringe Hours is ideal for both individuals and small group use."
