About this ebook

“If you struggle to simplify your life and wish you could savor the here and now, this book is a must-read.” —Crystal Paine, founder of MoneySavingMom.com and New York Times–bestselling author

Have you ever felt that your life—and budget—is spiraling out of control? Do you sometimes wish you could pull yourself together but wonder exactly how to manage all the scattered pieces of a chaotic life? Is it possible to find balance? In a word, yes. Ruth Soukup knows firsthand how stressful an unorganized life and budget can be. Through personal stories, biblical truth, and practical action plans, she will inspire you to make real and lasting changes to your personal goals, home, and finances. With honesty and the wisdom of someone who has been there, Ruth will help you:
  • Discover your “sweet spot” —that place where your talents and abilities intersect.
  • Take back your time and schedule by making simple shifts in your daily habits.
  • Reduce stress in your home and family by clearing out the clutter.
  • Stop busting your budget and learn to cut your grocery bill in half.


This book provides real and practical solutions from someone who has been there. Ruth doesn’t just offer advice, she walks it with you, and shares with brutal honesty her own mistakes, failures, and shortcomings. It is encouraging, motivating, and life-changing.

“An inspiring book full of step-by-step instructions and spiritual wisdom. I love how Ruth is transparent about her mistakes as she leads us to reevaluate our priorities. This book is a great biblical guide to living well and finding joy!” —Courtney Joseph, founder of Women Living Well Ministries

I was expecting to read tips about saving, but is a book of someone full of herself (2 Tim.3), in big part is an autobiography..me, I... so I prefer to buy another book that is honest about the title & content, very disapointed.

I'm a little more than halfway through and I can't put it down! It's safe to say this will be the FIRST self help book I've completed from cover to cover and thoroughly enjoyed. Looking forward to putting some of the ideas into practice. Great read!
