You may be asking yourself, "Why should I read this book? What's so special about Shante?"

Recently, I was in what seemed to be, the most confusing season of my life. During this season, I began a journey to find out why and how I ended up in that place. I needed to figure out where my belief system had failed. Throughout my lifetime, I had always believed in Jesus. I was always ready to work FOR Him, but had not yet worked WITH Him.

In this book, I detail the course of my 40-day renovation process that led to the renewal and strengthening of my mind and my faith. The process was about tossing away my old belief systems and implementing a new way of thinking. I wrote this book to encourage you along your own journey. I believe, without a doubt that once you've completed your 40-day renovation journey, you will be inspired to share your story as well.

My life was changed tremendously during my renovation. I no longer live in fear. I am a woman who takes care of herself without guilt. I am a woman who is sure to show love to people and organizations that need support. I am a woman who speaks her mind with class. I am a woman who exudes gentleness and meekness but never void of confidence and boldness. I am a woman who has favor everywhere I go. I love to explore, learn, and try new things. I am a loving woman who enjoys my family and will always want the best for them. I enjoy sharing my testimonies and life lessons with all people.

I love the Lord with all of my heart, soul and mind and I am very grateful for His grace and mercy. Jesus is the reason all of this is possible. I pray this book helps to guide you through your own renovation.
