Publisher's Summary

Read by the author.

Built by hand. Built to last. The best dreams start with love.

Noell Jett’s home is more than a farmhouse. It’s a testament to overcoming challenges, working side by side with those you love, and learning to say yes to your dreams again and again, even when the world says no.

Growing up in poverty, in a family with extremist religious beliefs, Noell Jett knows what it’s like to work hard to survive. When she married Daniel and they began a family together, she discovered the joy of working hard to achieve her dreams.

In From the Ground Up, Noell shares the unbelievable story behind her 3,700-square-foot custom farmhouse—built by hand and savvy influencer marketing—and the key strategies she learned about never giving up. With beautiful photos, reflections questions, and Noell’s trademark DIY tips, From the Ground Up offers:

• a vision for living beyond the confines of your past;
• inspiration for home renovation on a budget;
• tricks to make influencer marketing work for you;
• spiritual insight into finding true freedom;
• encouragement to take that life-changing leap of faith.

From the Ground Up is a powerful reminder that following your passion is worth a few sacrifices along the way. After all, some dreams are worth giving it all you’ve got. Why not follow yours?

Reflection questions are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I have enjoyed the Jett Family Farm on social media from cleaning videos to how to organize a kitchen. Noelle is real, funny, and a spitfire! This book was terrific.

DIY Building

As a DIY home builder myself, I enjoyed the parts of the book that spoke about the build the most. I felt encouraged that I, too, could be an influencer in my own way. As always, it was sweet to hear Noell's voice, as familiar as it is from her Instagram page. I love that she read her own thoughts, no other voice would have been fitting. Hearing about her past and how she overcame it has me realizing that I should do some deep thinking about my own childhood and how it still affects me.
