Did you believe you had life figured out at a young age—only to realize you still had a lot to learn as hardships and loss became the norm? Author Nancy Butler knows how you feel. She married at age 15, had two children, and sixteen years later, she found herself in the process of divorce without any child support or alimony. Having limited professional skills, she set out to find a career that would not only support her children, but would also help other people. Told in practical anecdotal fashion, you will be inspired by Butler. Grow with her during her struggles as a young bride, and then mother. Learn from her as she finds a profession in which she not only finds success, but also helps countless people design their own future plans. Laugh with her as she shares funny moments from family life. Hurt with her as she loses her father and other loved ones, and then honors their legacies. Rejoice with her as she finds a second chance at love. Butler built her financial planning business to close to $200 million in assets under management and then purposefully chose her successor before leaving the business to pursue other endeavors. She has been quoted in many local and national publications including the USA Today and The Day. She has been a speaker for major corporations such as Pfizer, General Dynamics, and Dow Chemical. And she has been a guest on several live TV and radio shows.

From the Author

This book is an easy read, broken into short chapters on multiple topics. It is very upbeat and inspirational. It includes:
  • Tips and tricks to make being a single parent "work"
  • How I built a business from scratch with only $2,000 to $200 million in assets under management and then sold it
  • Managing and helping parents with the effects of aging
  • Stepping out of your comfort zone and living life to the fullest
  • Ideas for "out of the box" gifts and memory making 
  • And much more

There are quotes at the end of each chapter that have guided me through the difficult times to an amazing life.
