Question from a reader:
“I would love to start a group in my community, but who do I invite (young moms AND older women)? How many chapters are there (how many sessions do I schedule?)? I want to know more and want to get started planning.”
Great questions! Let me answer them for you…
There are 14 chapters plus an introduction (from me) and a conclusion (from Sally). There are also 20 pages of Q & A (readers asked, Sally answered). You can see what the chapters are by clicking here.
What we would love to see is YOU leading a small group of women, younger and older; a coming together to create something beautiful: friendship, mentorship, community, and support. The goal of this book is to create a movement, a no-more-desperate-moms movement. You can be a part of the movement by gathering women in your church and/or community to read the book with.
You could meet once a week and cover a chapter a week (16 weeks), or you could meet once a week and cover two chapters a week (8 weeks). Sally and I will be leading an online study at The Better Mom beginning January 29th, and that will be an 8 week study (Tuesdays and Thursdays).
Every one who purchases the book between Tuesday, January 8th and Saturday, January 12th will receive a free PDF Desperate small group guide. I’ll have more information on the PDF soon.

We have made it easy for you to lead a study using Desperate. In the book you will find:
