LoveReading Says
I am Enough by Sheridan Stewart is a book about change and contentment. About slowing down, appreciating ourselves and the natural world around us, to help us achieve our goals. That being positive about what we currently have and are able to do will help to put our own needs - self-care - first. The book is easy to read, with practical advice and information taking us on a journey of self-discovery, focusing on our physical, emotional and financial wellbeing. Following Sheridan Stewart's own 90-day challenge and her personal story, this book can help readers assess and appreciate what really matters in life, rather than the materialistic and unrealistic world of 'perfection' that we live in. By the end of the book, I was beginning to realise that 'I am enough' and that the constant strive to be everything to everyone, to do everything, is the opposite of self-care. This book is an enjoyable and inspiring guide to changing the pace of your life.

I Am Enough Synopsis
Stressed by your spending? Always feeling like you should do more? Join Sheridan Stewart on an inspiring journey towards spending less, feeling happier and focusing on the important things.
What began as a 90-Day challenge simply to spend less, becomes an exploration of what matters most. I Am Enough contemplates what it means to have enough, do enough and ultimately be enough.
Told with insight and humour, this book is an antidote to the constant pressure we are under to do more, have more and be more. Busy radio presenter and broadcaster, author and mid-lifer Sheridan Stewart created the 90-Day Enough Challenge out of necessity. She had been struggling with burnout for years but couldn't find a way to break the cycle of dashing about feeling guilty about spending too much, eating too much and not being a good enough wife, friend, volunteer, work colleague and human being.
Sheridan's quest to prioritise calm, self-care and what really matters in life is inspirational. The practical programme which she has created is in three parts with a detailed timeline, tips and checklists for every step of the journey.
SURRENDER: The first part of the book is about surrender - learning to let go and strip life back to the essentials: getting enough sleep and support, utilizing what we have instead of buying more and doing enough without being sucked into the relentless pursuit of perfectionism.
MAYBE I CAN BE ENOUGH? The second part of the book makes a shift from not only doing things differently but beginning to feel and view things differently. Even though to the outside observer, Sheridan's life may appear the same - same job, same relationships, same environment - she learns to see life through a different lens. She begins to take small actions that better served her physical, emotional and financial wellbeing and shows the reader how to do the same.
CHOOSE TO MAKE THE CHANGE LAST: The third part of the book is about choice. As Sheridan nears the end of her 90-Day Challenge, she starts to explore implementing lasting change. As a chronic dieter and a driven over-achiever, she is aware of how quickly old patterns and behaviours can take hold. Why will this time different? Over the course of this journey, Sheridan learns to trust herself, and you can too by following in her footsteps on a journey towards financial and emotional happiness.
