"Eat the Cookie...Buy the Shoes" celebrates that we're not built for guilt. God never intended for us to be under a heavy burden. In fact, God is the ultimate party planner and wants you to learn how to celebrate the victories in your life.

This book will help you find the freedom to...

  • Do something you enjoy and not feel guilty about it

  • Give yourself permission to lighten up when facing challenges while staying spiritually balanced... don't be so hard on yourself
