“When someone is able to make complicated topics simple, I always listen! And that's exactly what Dr. Deb does. Not only does she walk us through what she knows, she lives out her words and that's more important to me than any knowledge she possess. I'm so excited for this book to get into the world!”
“Why is it so easy to get knocked off course and so hard to say "no" to the things that keep us there? Enter this incredible book. Perhaps the best book I've read, period, to powerfully guide someone out of the easy places and choices that get us nowhere. And to guide us instead through the "uncomfortable" places. The ones that really can bring genuine change toward what we really want and need most in life. Life is hard. This book can show you how to quit making it harder and actually reach those places of purpose, happiness, and rest you thought were out of reach.”
“Some messages come to us too late, others may come too early. In these pages is a message right on time. You cannot overcome what you are unwilling to encounter. Just how to do that is the gift Dr. Gorton bequests to us in this expertly written narrative Embracing Uncomfortable. Read it and rejoice.”
“If you want to wake up every morning with a sense of purpose, you have to live ON purpose. Being intentional in that way means truly knowing what your purpose is. Deb Gorton is here to help with that!”
“Even though we may know God has a plan and purpose for our lives, many of us will forgo our purpose in order to remain in our comfort zone. In Embracing Uncomfortable, Deb Gorton invites us to push beyond our fears. She helps us to discover what is keeping us from our purpose and provides us with realistic solutions that will move us into our purpose zones. This book equips us with the tools we need to make our daily pursuit of purpose our lifestyle.”
