My free e-Book: Wholeness Despite the Brokenness
IT'S HERE, IT'S HERE, MY E-WORKBOOK IS HERE.
“To fully embrace the goodness in life, we must enable ourselves to feel the bad. Experiencing the beauty of joy requires us to acknowledge our losses, and any sorrow it may bring. It is in the extreme of these experiences that fullness is found. Admitting how hard something is grants us the power to heal. -Natalie Brenner”
“In order to live in the fullness of joy, we must acknowledge our losses and offer them a voice.””
Loss of relationship, loss of health, loss of fertility, loss of community, loss of church, loss of marriage, loss of childhood, loss of someone special... anything lost that has created a space from what was originally meant as wholeness and perfection, is loss and deserves a voice.
As I gear up to release my book this fall, I am so excited to see this ebook passed around and shared. A few readers have already stated that it would be a great group study for grief support groups.
A few Mondays ago, I was sitting in our local coffee shop fighting writers block while writing my manuscript...so I closed that out and pulled up a fresh document. An hour or two later, THIS was here. I sent it off to my editor, had a beautiful cover made, asked for some reviews/endorsements, AND IT IS HERE AND FOR YOU.
I am so excited to give this e-book (it's more like an e-workbook) away. I believe in its message so much, that I am just going to give it to you!
Not quite sure this is for you? Here are some praises/reviews/endorsements:
“This book has the power to seriously help people. People who don't want to go to counseling will have a little piece of counseling to take right into their living rooms. As someone who has just recently experienced a heap of grief, I can say that it really helped me. Thank you for your bravery and your honesty.”
~Mariah Petewon, Loyal Subscriber
"Natalie shares an inside perspective of loss and grief. She strives to move the reader to recognize their own loss by digging deep into their soul to give the loss a voice, then encourages you to pursue wholeness and healing. A must for anyone that has experienced loss. Also, a powerful tool for a mini group bible study."
~Kimberly R. Miller, Mom via Birth and Adoption, Loyal subscriber
"Natalie's heart for healing is revealed in this workbook's gentle, thought-provoking questions. This book provides a launching pad for those who are hurting and don't know where to begin working through their loss. Natalie uses her own experience to provide a framework for others to process their trials in a faith-filled way."
~Kayla Craig, Just Really Joseph author, Upside Down Podcast co-creator and host
“With her unique voice, Natalie shares her personal journey through grief and loss while inspiring readers to explore their own pain, and find hope and healing along the way. Natalie’s self-paced workbook walks readers through their individual grief journeys with biblical references and prompts to reflect, learn and grow from their past pain. It offers meaningful insight for anyone who has felt broken, confused or hurt by their past or present life experiences.”
~Shelley Skuster, Award-Winning Journalist and Infertility Survivor
“Natalie hits on something very real within the pages of this workbook: brokenness. If we are breathing, we have been — in one way or another — broken. It’s the human experience. God has greater plans, though, for our pain. If we allow ourselves to be still, listen, and hear the workings of our souls, we can be lifted out of the hollowness of our broken parts. We can arrive to that beautiful place of wholeness. This workbook is a powerful start along the journey to healing.”
~Michelle Madrid-Branch, Life Fulfillment Coach and Emmy-Nominated Journalist, Writer, Blogger, Former Foster and International Adoptee, Adoptive Mother
Are you swooning at the cover as much as I am? My friend Amanda Stitcher at Manda Julaine Designs created it. My editor is a treasure, her name is Ashley Ormon. Subscribers, you should have gotten this in an email already :)
I AM SO TICKLED. Thank you for joining me on this journey of becoming an author. I cannot wait to release my entire non-fiction memoir this fall.
