First, let me say this from the bottom of my heart:

Thank you.

Whether you purchased The Race of Your Life, shared a post, sent me an encouraging message, prayed for me, or simply cheered me on quietly—I see you, and I am deeply grateful.

Releasing this memoir has been one of the most emotional and vulnerable experiences of my life. Every time someone tells me they’ve started reading, that a passage resonated, or that they felt seen in these pages, it reminds me why I said “yes” to telling this story.

Your support means more than you may ever know.

But here’s something I’ve learned along the way—and something many readers don’t realize:

👉🏽 You can support an author in powerful ways without spending a single penny.

Let me show you how.

1. Leave a Review (This Is HUGE!) ⭐

If you’ve purchased or read my book, leaving a review on Amazon is one of the most impactful ways you can support me.

Even a short review like:

“This book encouraged me.”
or
“Powerful and faith-filled.”

…makes a huge difference.

Reviews help:

• Other readers find the book
• Amazon recommend it to more people
• Authors stay encouraged to keep writing

Truly, reviews are gold to authors.

2. Add the Book to Goodreads 📚

If you’re on Goodreads, adding The Race of Your Life to:

• “Currently Reading”
• “Want to Read”
• or “Read”

helps the book reach new readers organically.

You don’t need to write a long review—just adding it to your shelf helps more than you know.

3. Share a Post or a Quote 💬

If something from the book stood out to you:

• Share a quote
• Post a picture of the book
• Share one of my graphics
• Tell your friends what the book meant to you

Word of mouth is powerful. One share can lead someone exactly where God wants them to be.

4. Tell Someone Who Might Need It 🤍

This might be the most meaningful support of all.

If you know someone:

• living with chronic illness
• walking through grief
• struggling with faith
• feeling discouraged or unseen

…telling them about this book could be the encouragement they’ve been praying for.

5. Pray Over the Book 🙏🏽

This book was written in prayer—and it continues in prayer.

If you feel led, please pray that:

• the book reaches the right people at the right time
• readers feel God’s presence through the pages
• hope, healing, and faith are stirred in hearts

There is no greater support than prayer.

A Thought for You 💬

Never underestimate the power of showing up for someone’s calling.

Your encouragement, your words, your prayers—these are seeds. And God knows exactly how and when to make them grow.

Closing Thoughts 🙇🏽‍♀️

From my heart to yours—thank you for believing in this story, in this journey, and in what God is doing through it.

You are part of this book’s story now.
And I am so grateful you’re here.

With love and appreciation,
Stacy 💛
