Publisher's Summary

Chasing Slow models HGTV star Erin Loechner's journey to help you break out of the faster-better-stronger trap and make small changes to refresh your perspective, renew your priorities, and shift your focus to what matters most.

You're here, but you want to be there. So you spend your life narrowing this divide, and you call this your race, your journey, your path. You live your days tightening your boot straps, wiping the sweat from your brow, chasing undiscovered happiness just around the bend. And on and on you run.

Viral sensation and HGTV.com star Erin Loechner knows about the chase. Before turning 30, she'd earned the title "The Nicest Girl Online" as she was praised for her authentic voice and effortless style. Her HGTV web show garnered over one million fans worldwide, and her client list includes Walt Disney World, IKEA, Martha Stewart and Home Depot. The New York Times applauded her, her friends and church admired her, and her husband and baby adored her. She had arrived at the ultimate destination.

So why did she feel so lost?

Through a series of steep climbs - her husband's brain tumor, bankruptcy, family loss, and public criticism - Erin learns just how much strength it takes to surrender it all, and to veer right into grace. In Chasing Slow, Erin upgrades her life through downsizing - her stuff, her obligations, her fears, her personal metric of "perfect." And ultimately, her invitation becomes yours: to turn away from the fast and frenzy, and find freedom in a new-fashioned lifestyle defined by grace.

Life's answers are not always hidden where they seem. It's time to venture off the beaten path to see that we’ve already been given everything we need. We've already arrived. You see?

You'll see.

I laughed and I cried in this book!

Any additional comments?

Motivational to spend more time living your life the way you want it, instead of waiting for 'one day'.
If you aren't living how you want to, then maybe you need to look at what you really 'want'. This book explains how this can be done, by just reshaping your ideas and not being afraid to take a risk. Things will go wrong, but you just have to work out how to get back on track.
Loved the way this book made me feel.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
