About this listen
A Crash Course in Love and Life: Daily Meditations for the 40 Days of Lent or Any Time of Year is a short but powerful book designed to help you improve your spiritual and mental health. While the book is good for Lent season, the 40 days of contemplation between Ash Wednesday and Easter, it can help you any time you need a quick hit of inspiration. Each message concludes with a question designed to help you reflect on what truly matters in your life. The inspirational messages and reflections urge you to focus on the blessings in your life instead of harping on negativity.
Listen to a portion at the start of each day to remind yourself that life is a temporary gift and that every loss and disappointment is a lesson from God. This is your chance to transform your life in 40 days; take it!

Her posts struck a chord with thousands and then hundreds of thousands of readers - no surprise since most relationships (approximately 85 percent) end.

Today - as repeated attempts to “fix ourselves and our lives” fail - many of us face unprecedented fears about the future, struggle with unspeakable life tragedies, and sink under the belief that certain lives do not matter in our society. Others confront our epidemic of anxiety with fierce resistance, or “the fight to be right”, criticizing anyone and everyone just to end up stuck. In the face of such pervasive human suffering, New York Times best-selling author and legendary life coach Iyanla Vanzant challenges us: What if it’s not them - what if it’s you?
