This book is a delight. Jan looks straight into some heavy issues, takes a deep breath, and bounces right back with good advice, great humor and an 'is that all you got?!?' attitude. Her honesty about her experience and her life's challenges really help me look at what I am going through with less tunnel vision. I highly recommend this book.
Thank you! Thank you!

Jan King's writing is so uplifting. It's so helpful to have a cheerful voice from someone who has conquered some of life's most difficult challenges. The belly laughs from how funny Jan is are great too. I really needed a good laugh!! I am so grateful that a friend gave me a copy of this book, it was just what the doctor ordered. No matter what troubles you are confronting, the advice in this book will help you handle your tough choices with grace. :)

Leading what she considered a healthy lifestyle and enjoying life to the fullest, she was struck down with breast cancer 7 years ago. Not one to dwell on the negative sife of anything, she "bounced back" to a total physical and mental recovery. She recommitted herself to healthy eating,daily exercise and spiritual renewal. She shares with the reader her very personal story and the steps she took to rebuild her life into one that is fuller and happier with total optimism for the future. There is lots of good advice here from healthy recipes to ways to minimize stress in one's life. Jan practices what she preaches and is living proof of what one can gain by taking control of ones own life and the blessings that flow back from such a life-affirming action.
