Everything Will Be Okay

EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY is a no-nonsense how-to guide to life for young women looking to reframe their thinking, to believe in themselves, to take risks, to understand their power, and to feel better overall through finding serenity and taking action.

Young women seek out advice from Dana Perino every day-at work, through friends, and on social media. The story of her own quarter-life crisis, And the Good News Is... Lessons and Advice from the Bright Side, brought countless readers to her inbox looking for guidance. Through her mentorship program, "Minute Mentoring," Dana quickly realized that quarter-life crises have begun following young women well into their thirties. Many of them are distressed but conceal it with a brave face. Unfortunately, too much of that can be-and is-exhausting.

To help address these challenges, EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY covers such topics as:

How to manage your relationships (colleagues, family, love)...

How to be your best self on the job...

How to gauge if you're on the right career path...

How to transition from junior staffer to boss lady...

How to solve the biggest problems you're facing...

How to move past perceived obstacles...

For everyone from the job-seeker fresh out of college to the ambitious career woman looking to make her next big jump up the ladder, EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY has tips, advice, and reassurance for young women everywhere.

“"Oh! How I wish I'd had this book when I hit my 'quarter-life crisis' and I will buy EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY for my daughter and all her friends who are there now. Dana's American-made wisdom is a cocktail of integrity, faith, and Western grit. She makes it look easy, but we all know it is not and here she poignantly shares what pulled her through the tough moments. Dana curls up on the couch with a cup of tea and a plan for us all, young, and 'formerly young,' consistently pulling us back around to focus on what really matters, on the way to achieving our dreams."-- Martha MacCallum”
