Can Christian women "have it all?" The Proverbs 31 Woman is proof that we can, and we should.

Author Imani Ackerman helps you to discover why and how to have it all, in her book , “How to Have It All: The Secrets of the Proverbs 31 Woman.” This book is part story, part social commentary, part Bible study, part devotional, and part journal, all working together to be one big war cry -- rallying all "women of valor" to be found and arise! No more playing small. No more feeling guilty or less than or forced to "choose between callings." Yes, you can have it all. And yes, God wants you to accomplish these things with Him.

Imani is a licensed minister, wife, mother, Federal Grant writer, and entrepreneur. She has an inspiring story of rising above multiple pregnancy losses and limitations to achieving her God-given goals for family, career and education. Now she wants to inspire and empower other women to fully live out their callings.
