Synopsis

Popular blogger Lauren Casper shares poignantly simple yet profound wisdom about removing the barriers we construct around our hearts and doing life full-on, all from the least expected source: her five-year-old son, Mareto.Five-year-old Mareto finds color and light in the ordinary happenings of every day and delights in beauty just waiting to be found. Those are lessons he shares, often unknowingly, with his mom, Lauren Casper.For Lauren, living with Mareto is a lot like playing the telephone game. He blurts out little phrases that have their origin in something he saw or heard, but by the time they make their way through his mind and back out of his mouth, they’ve transformed—often into beautiful truths about living a simple, authentic, love- and joy-filled life.From “it’s okay about it,” a simple reminder that even when life is painful or difficult, things will be okay because God promises never to leave or forsake his children, to “you’re making me feelings,” which teaches the importance of leaning into one’s emotions and, in doing so, sharing a piece of oneself with loved ones—Mareto’s simple yet profound wisdom is a reminder to embrace the broken beauty of life, to believe in a God bigger than human comprehension, and to love others even when it doesn’t make sense.For all those looking to recapture the faith, simplicity, wonder, hope, courage, and joy of life, It’s Okay About It provides a guide to look inward and live outward, to discover the most wide open and beautiful life possible.

Sometimes I get frustrated with my own thinking. It tends to be cyclical and harried, repetitive and disheartening. I often feel a pull within my own heart to slow down, reevaluate, and tame these discouraging and nonproductive thoughts. It's Okay About It offers this very thing. Seeing the world thr......more

I am a mama to 3 young kiddos, so I don't have a lot of time to read. But I am SO glad I made time to read this book. The writing is so tender, and real, and full of wisdom and encouragement. It is an easy read, and yet it really moved me. I found myself in tears through the chapter about anxiety. A......more

I came to Lauren Casper’s remarkable new book It’s Okay About It having already read all of her blog posts and every article written by her that I could find. So, in many ways, I knew what to expect from her when I began reading it. With all of that prior knowledge, however, I was still surprised at......more
