I have a big ask today. And it scares me a little to put this out there. But, when I told my husband I was thinking of posting this, he said, “You won’t get any answers if you never ask.”

So here goes: my brand-new book called The 7 Habits of Financially Healthy Women comes out today!! It’s my sixth book and likely my last book and I want to end my book-writing era well.

I poured countless hours into planning for, prepping for, and praying for this book. I surveyed almost 4,000 women about money before writing it, and I spent 25+ years living the message before I wrote about it in book form.

I’ve shared in previous posts how The 7 Habits of Financially Healthy Women helps you understand your numbers, make a realistic spending plan, and create support for following through.

You’ll also learn practical ways to stretch your money:

• Take inventory before buying more.
• Find recurring expenses you no longer need.
• Plan purchases instead of always buying at the last minute.
• Add a waiting period before nonessential spending.
• Connect the money you save with a goal that matters to you.

Plus, there are so many stories from my childhood and the early years of marriage that I think you are going to really enjoy reading (I had so much fun remembering and writing them out!)

A Big Goal and a Bold Ask

Now for my big ask… I set an audacious goal that my book would get in the top 1000 of all books on Amazon this week. This isn’t easy to do, but getting into the top 1000 means that Amazon will promote it even more!

So here’s my bold ask: if you were thinking of purchasing, would you buy in the next 24 hours so that collectively we can try to hit this goal??

It’s currently in the top 1400 of all books sold on Amazon. Can we get it in the top 1,000??

Again, I don’t want you to buy it if you weren’t already planning to (or if it’s not in your budget!) But if you were already planning to buy it, purchasing in the next 8 hours would be huge for the book’s overall success!
