DELIBERATE MOTHERHOOD Review


DELIBERATE MOTHERHOOD presents a collection of stories, inspiring ideas and practical applications to help mothers find fulfillment and personal growth in the joyous and challenging work of raising the next generation. Written for moms by moms, the collection of stories in DELIBERATE MOTHERHOOD is compiled by April Perry, co-founder with Saren Loosli of PowerofMoms.com, a “gathering place for deliberate mothers” that serves over one million moms around the world. 

Just when you thought everything has been said about motherhood, DELIBERATE MOTHERHOOD: 12 POWERS OF PEACE, PURPOSE, ORDER, AND JOY, will challenge that notion with inspiration from 60 mothers/authors of varying backgrounds and families. Each of the 12 “Powers” provided in this book is a crucial component to help any mom along their parenting journey. DELIBERATE MOTHERHOOD may just be the best gift you can give a mom this year!  

"The mark of a great book is that it makes you think . . . and it helps you change . . . which in the case of DELIBERATE MOTHERS, is an absolute guarantee!" - Lynda Eyre, New York Times bestselling author, THE ENTITLEMENT TRAP: HOW TO RESCUE YOUR CHILD

My Review:
This book really made me think about all the times that I felt bad after a time out, or after I took away tv time. Each power was written by a different author and it gave the book a lot of different point of views. I also liked that the authors talked from experience and were not condescending. I definitely learned a lot about trusting myself, and I think that every mother should read this book. My favorite was the power of moments. I would love to take the advice in that chapter and use them every day.
I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
