#239: A Better Life with Rebecca Smith

Are you racing towards your goals? Running away every chance you can? I sure do. We could all use a gentle reminder to slow down and listen to what God may be telling us. This week we are bringing you an exclusive interview with our very own Rebecky ! There are no problems this month as we celebrate Rebecca Smith's vulnerable and sweet page-turner that launched this week. In A Better Life: Slowing Down to Get Ahead , Rebecca tells us many personal stories of how she took baby steps and followed God's lead to find her purpose. Even though she is one of my dearest friends, I didn't know the sweet story behind Better Life Bags before reading. I loved each chapter more than the last and I'm so happy she shared her heart with all of us. Rebecca Smith lives in a low-income area of Detroit, Michigan with her husband, four children, and many miscellaneous pets. She started a custom handbag company in her basement with a mission to hire women who have various barriers to employment. These women are adopted into the Better Life family and given a chance to succeed in life, family, and friendship.
