“I loved the ‘Freedom of Thought’ chapter. So true! This is a great book! Will be helpful to so many!”
MARCIA R
“Carol opens up her heart and soul in this book and learned to become an overcomer and achiever in life. More than anything, she wants to help you to do the same. Happiness Reclaimed will tell you about many, many trials she has gone through and still going through, but with God, has always found all things are possible. She reminds us that when we face our monsters, spiritual healing can take place, and I love how she speaks about the Spirit even more towards the end of her book!”
SUE M
““Enjoyed reading your book. It is thoughtful, informative, and comes across as a very authentic portrayal of your experiences and your hope and desire that others will benefit from reading. I gave one copy to my son and the timing is perfect. Blessings and thanks!”

The Myth Buster SEries #1
Conflict Is Bad and Should Be Avoided!
How to Treasure Difficult Conversations
It’s time to destroy a few myths in our culture, such as the myth that conflict is bad and should be avoided. You’ll learn how to manage and even treasure difficult conversations.
Many of us wonder how we can be more assertive or manage conflict. Often, what we’re really asking is, “How can I stand up for myself without feeling guilty or stressed or angry?” Some people habitually feel shy or self-conscious, while others only want to know how to improve communication in their marriage or with their children.
This book, combined with Powerful Strategies #1-3, offers everyone tremendous relief.
“This book gave me a new path to conflict resolution!”
JILL D
“I would like to personally thank you, Carol, for a book that encourages and
illustrates real-life skills and attributes that are necessary for success in the
workplace and everyday life. Engaging, applicable, realistic—this book is a
necessary resource promoting effective communication.”

The Myth Buster Series #2
We Should NEVER Judge Others!
How to Reclaim Your Values
In this book we’ll look at the myth that we should never judge at all, that it’s somehow morally wrong. Well, it’s wrong to be judgmental. But other kinds of judging are both wise and helpful, and we and our loved ones can lead happier lives if we understand the difference. This book offers all of us an escape from so much of the misery found in today’s modern culture.
“If I had known what I know now, everything would have been different. I’m doing this for myself. I want my children to have the respect they should have for me.”
STACEY S
“As always, a wonderful read, Carol! Thanks for the beauty.”

The Myth Buster Series #3
Forgiveness Means Being a Doormat!
How to Achieve Forgiveness
In this book we’ll explore how forgiveness has been improperly taught in various places, and we’ll look at the scriptural basis for a correct understanding of forgiveness, all of which will make forgiveness so much easier for us! Scientific research supports the idea that forgiveness is important for mental and emotional health, spiritual health, and even physical health! We can become so accustomed to those stress hormones that we don’t realize the damage that’s being done. Save yourself while you still can and finally get free of what’s dragging you down!
“What I loved about the book is the characters and how it helped me understand the personalities and the why behind certain behaviors.”
KIM M
“In this series Carol gives excellent instruction on how to deal positively with relationships in every area of our lives. I found the information valuable for my age group (over 60), but it would be especially critical for those in their twenties, thirties and beyond. Wish I had had this resource many years ago, although, one is never too old to change. I recommend this book for everyone.”
SHERRY M
“Loved both the story and the life lesson!”
GINNY M
“I’m so proud of you, Carol. Forgiveness is indeed the lifeblood of any believer and is available in its miracle to any who would practice it. Bravo for your efforts, bravo for you.”

“I love the way she teaches. Try her teaching only one time and you will
be hooked on learning.”
MARIE B
“From the very first, she held the students’ attention and interest. She kept things moving at a lively pace with deliberate lesson plans, yet the students were not overwhelmed. In fact, right from the beginning, the students visibly relaxed and enjoyed the positive learning atmosphere that Carol provided. It was exciting for me as a parent to see how quickly my children’s abilities progressed under her instruction.”
JANELL B
“Very articulate and well-reasoned discussion around a wide-range of topics. It was most enjoyable and professionally done. I know that your emphasis was not ‘how to fix the public school system’ but I thought your insights were important there as well, especially about joy and about character.”
