Debora Sommer has set out to uncover the secret of a flourishing life. Why do some people manage to thrive despite the most difficult life circumstances, while others fall apart? Why do we often gaze longingly at the life gardens of others? The good news is: a flourishing life is always possible, regardless of circumstances. Everyone can blossom and bear rich fruit where they are planted. However, there are some factors that hinder flourishing and others that promote it. Debora Sommer sensitively illustrates which factors these are and what healthy rooting looks like, which is ultimately the crucial prerequisite for renewed blossoming, using many personal stories and practical tips. Questions for further reflection help the reader to concretely apply what they have read to their own life situation.
