Does it ever seem like you still have to find your purpose or that you’re stuck with “unfigured-out dreams”? Do you feel the pressure to prove yourself or worry about what others will think?

You are not the only one.

From accidentally starting a small business instead of using her college degree, to embarrassing herself onstage in front of thousands, to wasting time worrying about what others think or say, Jordan Lee Dooley knows exactly how that feels—and she’s learned some important lessons about living a purposeful life along the way.

An influential millennial widely recognized for her tagline turned international movement, “Your Brokenness is Welcome Here,” Jordan has become a go-to source that women around the world look to for inspiration in their faith, work, relationships, and everyday life.

Now, in this approachable but actionable read that’s jam-packed with practical tools, Jordan equips you to

• tackle obstacles such as disappointment, perfectionism, comparison, and distraction
• remove labels and break out of the box of expectations
• identify and eliminate excuses and unnecessary stress about an unknown future
• overcome the lie that you can’t live your God-given purpose until you reach a certain goal or milestone

If you ever feel you need to shift your mindset but don’t know how, this book will help you overcome shame, practice gratitude, and redefine success.

Critic reviews

“In a world where we often feel pressured to move forward as quickly as possible, the words that fill these pages shine light on this beautiful truth: there is a fulfilling life to be lived right here, where we are.”—Morgan Harper Nichols, artist and poet

“Authentic, intuitive, and compassionate, Jordan clears the clutter from our minds and hearts while enthusiastically guiding us to discover our own authentic purpose.”—Jessica Honegger, author, founder and co-CEO of Noonday Collection

“There are those rare books you come across from time to time that make you feel like you are drinking from a re hydrant. This is one of those books. Jordan brilliantly teaches, encourages, and convicts you all at the same time!”—Jefferson Bethke, bestselling author of Jesus > Religion and It’s Not What You Think

“As a struggling perfectionist myself, I related so much to the idea of the internal pressure we put on ourselves to perform and achieve. Own Your Everyday gave me the greatest encouragement to be myself.”—Lauren Scruggs Kennedy, in influencer, author, entrepreneur

“Jordan is bursting with contagious joy, and this book is just an overflow. Prepare to be challenged and loved all at the same time.”—Jennie Allen, author of Nothing to Prove, founder and visionary of IF:Gathering

“Jordan dives into our hearts by sharing both tear-jerking and laughable stories of her faith from childhood to current day. Each page is relatable and profound, yet beautifully simple.”—Sarah Rose Summers, Miss USA 2018

“Jordan truly has wisdom beyond her years, and this book is packed with both practical and beautiful ways to live out our God-given purpose! Right from the beginning, Jordan’s heart bleeds through, and her honesty is so refreshing and relatable. This book will be such a gift to women!”—Christy Nockels, singer, songwriter, and creator of The Glorious in the Mundane podcast

“I love how Jordan makes the topic of finding your purpose a sweet conversation as opposed to something ominous, impossible, and scary. Her whimsical stories remind you that we’re all on the same journey—days filled with seemingly random moments that are really nudges from heaven. Each reminder about who you are, whose you are, and why you’re really here is like an on-time hug mixed with a little kick in the pants too!”—Marshawn Evans Daniels, reinvention strategist for women, TV personality, and founder of SHE Profits

Loved it so much, I’m purchasing the hard copy!

I just loved how relatable this book is to ANY HUMAN WOMAN who will listen! If you’re into audiobooks, then Jordan’s voice is super soothing haha! This matters to me, because I will turn an audiobook off if the reader’s voice makes me cringe. I’m headed to Target to buy the hard copy of the book! I loved it so much, and it’s filled with so much valuable information that’s worth marking up and taking notes. I was really able to relate with all her stories. Every feeling she felt is what all women feel, and it all came with solutions. Simple, actionable solutions. I loved it! So inspiring! AND so raw and authentic!

Wow..

I am so inspired and motivated by Jordan’s words. This book was written so beautifully and can inspire anyone who is lost or looking for answers. Thank you for this new way of viewing my journey in life.

Redefine success/purpose

I’ve had exactly this idea burning in my heart. That somehow the pressure to find your grand and glorious purpose is somehow missing the point. Making your “do” more important than your “who”. I really needed this and am grateful for this book! The little steps are the bigs steps!!!

Easy to listen to

The author has a great voice!! Loved the content this book. Highly recommend for those young ladies out there headed to college.

Getting to the Root of your Purpose

Jordan did a great job narrowing in what our why really is and enjoying our journeys.
