Overworked, overwhelmed, unsatisfied, and at her breaking point, an everywoman drops out of life for a day and meets a mysterious teacher. What she finds is her purpose--and a better way to live. In this entertaining and enlightening novel, chapters alternate between scenes in which our everywoman and her teacher discuss Life, and scenes in which she's living her everyday life (interacting with her husband, children, co-workers, and friends) and applying what she's learned. Each chapter ends with three Awakenings, pointed questions that encourage the reader to examine her own thoughts, beliefs, and life; and that encourage discussion.
