Another triumph by Sarah Bragg! Sarah helps us see the sanity, beauty, and authenticity in asking the questions we all have but are not always comfortable bringing to light. Brimming with practical advice, Sarah models for us an authentic life and mature faith. If you feel alone in your struggles, you will find here a trustworthy and wise companion. Peter Enns, author, Curveball

I read this in one sitting like a drowning woman clutching a lifesaver. Not only does Sarah Bragg ask all the questions my middle-aged, Gen-X mind obsesses over, but she's also vulnerable about her own struggles and offers ideas for how to help get us off the hamster wheel. Is Everyone Happier Than Me? should be handed to every woman as she crosses the threshold of forty. 'Happy birthday! Here's your manual. It's gonna be okay.' Melanie Dale, author, Calm the H*ck Down, Infreakinfertility, It's Not Fair, and Women Are Scary

In Is Everyone Happier Than Me?, Sarah Bragg threads the needle on the nuanced complexities of the modern pursuit of happiness, but what makes this reading experience different is the radical authenticity she does it with. Instead of using vapid cliches or vague generalities, Sarah honestly testifies to how both the depression and happiness sausages are made, and we're all the beneficiaries of this cross-examination of the self. Knox McCoy, author, All Things Reconsidered and The Wondering Years

Sarah has taken questions we all ask and methodically unpacked them in her immensely relatable way. Get this book in your library and you'll refer to it often. Emily Thomas, host, Struggle Well School

Sarah's work holds a profound understanding of the dilemmas we face in our daily lives. Her questions are not just inquiries but are tools for introspection and growth, especially for moms juggling the complexities of modern life. I highly recommend Is Everyone Happier Than Me? to anyone looking for clarity, connection, and a path to genuine happiness. Retha Nichole, certified life and business coach

There's not a question in this book I haven't asked myself...and often. That's one reason I'm grateful Sarah has chosen to go further than most with her courage to explore rather than suppress hard things. In Is Everyone Happier Than Me? you will discover both a relatable companion and a wise friend who serves up some practical life skills. Good for you, Sarah, for helping us all become a little more authentic, kind, and courageous, one honest question at a time. Kristen Ivy, president and CEO, Orange

This book holds a message our culture has long needed to hear, especially in the age of social media. It's a siren call to set down the measuring sticks and finally learn to say yes to what's right in front of us--the lives we actually have. Sarah is a compassionate guide and honest friend throughout the pages of this book. She leads and teaches from a place of vulnerability but also provides the doses of practicality and thoughtful planning we all need to get unstuck and start moving forward again. Hannah Brencher, author, Fighting Forward and Come Matter Here

This is for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed in this world of comparison and 'getting it right.' Whether we're struggling in faith or parenting or our own endeavors, Sarah's vulnerability gives space for all of us dealing with comparison and striving and brings hope that we can experience life differently and lean into our unique creativity and experience!
