Whether you have helicopter parents who taught you everything or parents who have given you more space than you would like, you will want to read this book as you navigate the transition into adulthood. The advice is solid and u p-to-date.

In true Malissa form, this book presents direction with love and acceptance. I have known Malissa for almost ten years. She is one of the women I admire most both professionally and personally. She gives everything 200 percent and isnt afraid to be authentic. She is real, comforting, full of love, and ready to get her hands dirty. These traits allow her to excel in areas that many are too afraid to even attempt. Her commitment to excellence and loving herself and others for who they are is infectious. If you know Malissa, you want to be around her; to gleam a little of the magic she possesses and gives so freely of. As a Christian mother myself, I find her advice on point with how I want my own child raised. Thank you, Malissa, for this amazing g uidebook.

It inspires the reader to seek within themselves and question the depth of their existence. Within the pages, the seeker will be provided with helpful tools, information, and questions to encourage their curiosity and take advantage of their life r ight now.

The author's willingness to share vulnerable experiences allows for a relatable conversion to take place. Even though she belongs to one specific religion, Malissa is quick to include any young women in need of guidance and love; no matter what their background might be. Life Tumbled is written from a genuine perspective of love; and where there is love, there is God because God is love. No matter what season of life you are in, do not pass up this book; it is well worth you time.

Life Tumbled is real, true, and relatable. Malissa's story is generous in its detail and transparent in its assessments of life. Malissa has bravely shared the triumphs and tribulations, the victories and the pain, all in equal measure. With an openness of spirit, she gives her journey to us so we don't have to learn the hard way.
