Daily Drive

Living A Flourishing Life: A 12 Day Journey

This book is her COVID book.

Sara could relate to COVID in a similar way to her first year and a half deployment when her husband commanded the 2-147 AHB to Iraq. This time turned her life upside down and inside out. As she and her husband had uprooted from Stillwater and lived in Alexandria, MN, while hands-on renovating the thirty-seven acres, one of their adult children said, "Mom, do something!" What could she possibly do? She could write, post, and try to encourage others in a manner similar to what she had gone through to sustain resilience during their two deployments. The thirty daily mindset encouragements and posts on social media caught the attention of individuals on LinkedIn. They encouraged Sara to put them into a book, and she did. This is what gave birth to Daily Drives. People wanted to learn how to manage their thoughts and emotions, so Sara's journey to learn, help, and serve others continued.

Having tips and tools to help consciously manage our mindset and energy mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually is essential. Daily Drives—Living A Flourishing Life is written in a journal format. You are taken on a 12-day journey within five essential areas of your wellbeing: Career, Social, Financial, Physical, and Community Wellbeing that encourages, inspires, and renews hearts and mindsets.

Praise for The Book

“I started following Sara when she began posting her Daily Drives during the beginning of COVID on her Facebook page. I have experienced many leadership roles in the 34 years I have been a Realtor. I have also been a WW Coach for 13 years. Professionally, I relate to how helpful the tools she offers are, as well as, personally they are helping me improve how I interact with everyone I meet in my life’s journey.

I highly recommend this book for everyone; as we can all learn from the journey we are taking with Sara’s guidance.”
