Read an Excerpt

As you flip through this book, you’ll see a range of envelopes listing a variety of “life challenges” you might be facing. Inside each envelope, folded up in a nifty, origami-like way, you’ll discover an illustrated, inspirational mini-letter. I call them Open When letters because I created them for you to “open when” you feel confused, overwhelmed, bitter, or alone (or pick any uncomfy emotion) and need a quick booster shot of faith, love, confidence, or inner peace.

I made these Open When letters because I recognize that in the heat of the moment it’s often tough to think positively (or to think at all!). Plus, in today’s busy world, friends and family aren’t always available to talk. So I wanted to find a way for you to be your own personal cheerleader—on a need-to-be-inspired-NOW basis—or to help you cheer up loved ones by sharing this book as a gift of support. I hope these letters bring you (or those you give them to) the happiness you’re seeking—in the exact moment you’re seeking it!
