So writes Sister Jean.' * Kirkus Reviews *\u003cbr\u003eThe amount of history the memoir encompasses is staggering, from the dropping of the atomic bomb to Black Lives Matter protests. Throughout the book, Sister Jean intersperses lessons and advice that helped her meet a century's worth of challenges and change. She preaches tolerance, diversity, open dialogue, face-to-face communication, morning prayer and waking up with purpose. They are her secrets to a long life well-lived, easy and applicable to anyone looking to have a life even half as long, full and meaningful as hers has been. * America Magazine *\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Focus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49407808110935,"sku":"9781400333516","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/wake-up-with-purpose-9781400333516","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
