Last December, I released my book, Soulful Simplicity. I hope you’ll celebrate the one year anniversary a little early with me. The book came out on December 26th and I’m sure those of you with birthdays or special occasions that fall on the day after Christmas will understand why I’m celebrating now.
The book has sold tens of thousands of copies over the last year. It has 136 five-star reviews on Amazon and more importantly, I hear from people almost every day about changes they are making in their own lives as a result of reading Soulful Simplicity.
“Soulful Simplicity encourages conscious minimalism from the inside out. It’s a heartfelt yet practical guide for making life simple again. Courtney’s story is relatable in so many ways — she lets you walk in her shoes so you can see the mental and physical steps she took to escape a stressful life that literally almost killed her. This book has made me laugh, smile and take action towards living a life uncluttered…leaving me with space for what truly matters.” – Angel Chernoff from marcandangel.com – author of Getting Back to Happy
If you haven’t read Soulful Simplicity yet …
To keep the celebration going all month, I’ll be donating $1.00 for every book sold in December to Back on My Feet, an organization committed to helping homeless people get back on their feet through the joy of running. The volunteers from Back on My Feet let homeless people know they matter. They don’t walk by and look in the other direction. Instead they invite them for a run.
My publisher is keeping track of all sales (digital and hardcover) so you don’t have to send receipts. I’ll get back to you with our total donation in early January.

“Courtney Carver reminds us that simplicity isn’t just about being organized, it’s about getting back to love. With simple genius, Marie Kondo taught us how to declutter our homes, now it’s time to let Courtney Carver take us to a deeper place. To refine our lives, and reconnect with what matters most.” – Jonathan Fields, from jonathanfields.com – author of How to Live a Good Life.
