ABOUT THE BOOK
Hannah Brencher knows that the clock striking midnight on December 31 isn’t going to magically reset any of our lives. 2021 isn’t the answer. Instead, we need to choose hope over the lies that we’re not good enough. We need to stay in the fight – the fight to show up, the fight to move forward, the fight to believe we can actually change this world for the better.
Fighting Forward: Your Nitty Gritty Guide to Beating the Lies that Hold You Back is a reminder to stay in the fight, an anthem to give readers strength and a playbook on how to keep going. Hope is alive, and there is still a reason to wake up, get up and move forward into each new day.
“This book is a compilation of words I started writing into a notebook as I battled a life-threatening depression,” says Brencher. “I started to jot these notes of hope down for anyone who needed a reminder to keep seeking the light in the darkest places. There are so many hard things that come with being a human that it would be easier to stay in one place and never try to make an impact but this book is about moving forward-- one small step at a time-- to take back the life fear tries to steal from us.”
In Fighting Forward, Brencher shares personal stories of developing daily rhythms and sustainable faith in a culture of hustle. With a heap of hope for those who long to move from anxiety and fear into action steps, this book will encourage readers to savor the milestones they've already reached, root themselves in the next small step, welcome healthy routines into their day, and apply grace like sunscreen in the process of their own becoming.
