A Cup of Coffee and a Little Courage
Cozy Encouragement for the Woman Starting OverBy Marlene Hylton
Length4h 29m
About this audiobook
This book is a chair pulled close to the kitchen table. A warm cup between your hands. A little lamp glowing in the corner when the rest of the house has gone quiet. It is the kind of conversation you have when you are finally honest enough to say, “I am tired,” and kind enough to yourself not to apologize for it.
Because sometimes, tired does not mean lazy.
Sometimes, tired means you have been strong for too long.
Sometimes, tired means your mind has been carrying conversations, fears, memories, responsibilities, disappointments, and silent prayers that no one else even knows about.
Sometimes, tired means you have been getting through days that looked ordinary on the outside but felt heavy on the inside.
And still, here you are.
