Peace and Plenty: Finding Your Path to Financial Serenity 
"When money is plentiful, this is a man's world. When money is scarce, it is a woman's world." Unearthed in a 1932 Ladies Home Journal, this quote is the call to arms that begins Peace and Plenty, Sarah Ban Breathnach's answer to the world's-- and her own personal-- financial crisis. As only Ban Breathnach can, she culls together this compendium of advice, deeply personal anecdotes, and excerpts from magazines, books, and newspapers-- particularly those of the Great Depression-- to inspire readers who are mired in today's financial difficulties.
Focusing on her own personal path, Sarah Ban Breathnach will relate never-before revealed details about how she fell from the financial top to the bottom. Readers will immediately see how deeply she understands the plight of those trying to maintain a happy and comfortable home, while at the same time not even knowing if they will be able to make the mortgage to keep that home.
Sarah has proved to be the voice of comfort for years to women who are spiritually bankrupt, and now she will reach to those who are financially strapped, showing them how to pull themselves out of their psychic and fiscal crises while providing deep comfort and reassurance throughout.
"If your imagination is blocked... you can't be sighing with pleasure over repurposing your never-used dining room into a cozy library, happily imagining....." xvi"When cataclysmic change arrives, why does there always seem to be rapid and ruthless reckoning required, especially before we even process what has happened? ... But Reader, trust me: This experience is essential. It will make our new life all the more sweet when we find our way back. And we will find our way back." (19)."Our goal is
I am a huge fan of Sarah's first book, Simple Abundance. I bought a copy for my sister and several friends. I bought her 2nd and 3rd book hoping to continue the journey with this author and teacher, but I could not get through them. They fell flat with me and only seemed a way to continue in the financial abundance that the first book generated. Now with this fourth book she is trying to recover from a bad divorce and a loss of all her money. Why not just write a sordid tell-all and be frank

In "Peace and Plenty" the author really sheds some light on a few truths about money, such as how women relate to money, and how it can effect relationships. She is writing from a place of having been there. She tells of one minute being a freelance writer without a comma in her checking account, and the next being a millionaire after her book Simple Abundance became a hit. Sadly for her she lost it, she fell back down the financial ladder and had no money. With this book, she teaches and
Ugh..I was so let down by this book. I couldn't make it past the second cd. That's HUGE for me. I always give audio books through the third or fourth cd because a lot can change by then. Unless, you're suffering a horrible slow audiobook death by having to listen to this crap.I have so many bad things to say about this book that I'll spare you. Who wants to read a slam? I'll just stick to a few top contenders of suckiness. 1. Breathnach assumes you *must* know her story right? Because she's so
I loved every minute of reading this book. If you have ever read Simple Abundance,then you will know the author, Sarah Ban Breathnach. This latest book tells her story of losing it all financially and how she had to start a new life for herself. She quotes wonderful women at the beginning of each chapter... just reading the quotes is enough to inspire you! Although the book is about how she finds financial serenity and how you can find it, it is also a book about becoming a better you. It is a
Parts of this book are clearly directed at women who have money left over at the end of the month, so, some of the strategies are tough to implement for my particular situation. I did like how she showed the connection between feeling at-home in your own home and how that reduces the urge to splurge (on too much take-out/restaurant bills, clothing that can only be worn to one event, rent on a place that's really too big for your needs). I saw a lot of my old spending habits, especially the part

I was mixed on this one. Some good stories...not enough advice that I was craving. Slow and a bit repetitive in parts.I gave it to mom to read, and will see what she thought of it before I revise this review.Update: April 19. Mom started to read the book at the doctor's office. She had a 3 hour wait. She got most of the way through the book but told me she wondered if it was ever going to get better. The man next to her was reading over her shoulder, and told my mom that he thought it wasn't"If your imagination is blocked... you can't be sighing with pleasure over repurposing your never-used dining room into a cozy library, happily imagining....." xvi"When cataclysmic change arrives, why does there always seem to be rapid and ruthless reckoning required, especially before we even process what has happened? ...
