Ladies, a little perspective can change everything—and owning your own perspective (with a sense of humor) is what The Well-Lived Laugh is all about. Brand-new from Christian humor writer Rachel St. John-Gilbert (author of Wake Up Laughing and Laugh Yourself to Sleep), The Well-Lived Laugh: Designing a Life that Keeps You Smiling offers an offbeat look at life’s crazy-making pressures—body image, relationships, social networking, the food police—and encouragement to develop your own unique perspective to help eliminate those pressures. Through her thought-provoking, quirky, and funny observations, St. John-Gilbert will help you embrace the beauty in life that comes through each experience you encounter, whether planned or not.
Review
I higly recommend this creative, easy-read book to women who feel pressured (trapped) in any area of life. For "older" readers, this book will bring back memories of struggles and ideas for mentoring, and "younger" readers will gain insight in coping.

There are some feelings and situations that only another woman could understand. That is what Rachel St. John-Gilbert writes about in this book. This book is about real situations, such as: a torn friendship, divorce, difficult adult kids, and etc...
Though there is humor around all she writes, there is also scripture, advice, empathy, and great examples. This book is definitely a guide as well as a pick-me-up. This would make a great gift for that special friend! (Stephanie Rollins Book Reviews R US 2012-10-12)
