The bestselling author and inspirational speaker has continued to expand on the phenomenal success of her late husband, Dr. Richard Carlson, beloved author of the “Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff” series who passed away suddenly in 2006.

Carlson shares her hard-won wisdom and practical ideas to empower women in Living the Big Stuff™ and experiencing true freedom: the freedom to love, the freedom to heal, the freedom to overcome, and the freedom to succeed.
