Resumen del Editor

I will hold myself to a standard of grace, not perfection.

As a busy wife, new mother, business owner, and designer, Emily Ley came to a point when she suddenly realized she couldn't do it all. She needed to simplify her life, organize her days, and prioritize the priorities. She decided to hold herself to a standard of grace rather than perfection. This mantra led to the creation of her best-selling Simplified Planner®, a favorite among busy women everywhere - from mamas to executives and everywhere in between.

Grace Not Perfection takes this message from a daily planner to an inspirational book that encourages women to simplify and prioritize. Designed with Emily Ley's signature aesthetic, this book gives women tangible ways to simplify their lives to give space to what matters most. With a focus on faith, Emily reminds listeners that God abundantly pours out grace on us - and that surely we can extend grace to ourselves.

Have you been told you can have it all, only to end up exhausted and occasionally out of sorts with the people you love? Are you ready for a new way of seeing your time? Learn to live a little more simply. Hold yourself and those you love to a more life-giving standard in Grace Not Perfection, and allow that grace to seep in to your days, your family, and your heart. Ideas include:

• List making 101 - tips to create effective to-do lists and get through them one step at a time
• Simplify your life by simplifying the three major areas: your space, your time, and your mind
• Strategies to center your day around an intentionally slower rhythm of life

Great easy read with food for thought

Was a great easy listen. I thought her voice was pleasant to listen to- I was nervous after some of the reviews.
It’s a great book that helps you to refocus on what’s important (whatever that is to you) and prioritize and be grateful for what matters. Definitely geared to young mammas.

Loved that it was an easy listen with good food for thought but not one that you have to stop constantly to think about what she said.
I’ll probably listen again to get the full effect of what she said. Would definitely recommend.

Simply truth in love.

Emily has a gift for offering simplicity and speaking truth in love to women of all places and spaces.

Just What My Mama Heart Needed!

Emily Ley does an amazing job of helping you learn to embrace your imperfections, and learn to find joy wherever you are in life. What a gift!

Wonderful encouragement

I would definitely recommend this book to all my friends- ESPECIALLY new moms so they can rest assured that everyone goes through the struggle of adjusting to life as a parent. Loved this book!

Wonderful Read

This is one of those books I plan to read/listen to at least once a year! As a wife, mother and small business owner myself, I honestly felt as though Emily was speaking directly for and to me. So many practical applications and assurance in these words. I started recommending this book to others before I even finished!

Just what I needed!

I had a friend who recommended this book to me. One day one, when I started, I knew it was written for me in this stage of my life. I have a early teenager and a senior in high school, both boys.

Loved it enough to write a review

I’m not a huge self-help enthusiast. At my sister’s recommendation, I downloaded this book, and I’m so glad I did. This was so relatable and encouraging without being preachy. I would highly recommend!

super relatable and helpful. absolutely love it

super relatable and helpful. Very action oriented and practical advice also helped.me reflect to be healthily convicted in areas I was struggling. brought light to those areas so I could admit, repent and change.

A bit of everything

I really didn't know what to expect going into this book. I found Emily Lay after following Lara Casey on social media. I still can't tell you exactly how it impacted me most, but I can certainly say it made an impact. It's what I needed at the moment in so many ways. It's a short read and well worth it. No matter what your situation is at this moment.

Another great read by Emily Ley!

This is a quick read/listen. So many great truth bombs to help elevate you.
