Strong and Kind + Giveaway

Although I follow a lot of celebrities there is only a small percentage of those I follow that I look up to…one of those people is Korie Robertson. For those of you who may not know who Korie is, although I seriously doubt it, Korie is the wife of Duck Commander® CEO Willie Robertson and star of A&E’s beloved series Duck Dynasty. 

Korie is a mother of five (which is how many children I have always thought I wanted so that obviously bonds us) and a New York Times bestselling author of several books, including The Duck Commander Family: How Faith, Family, and Ducks built a Dynasty, written with Willie; Faith Commander: Living Five Values from the Parables with Jesus, written with her mother Chrys Howard; and The Women of Duck Commander: Surprising Insights from the Women Behind the Beards about What Makes this Family Work, written with all of the Robertson wives.  She is also an in-demand public speaker, Duck Commander® executive, entrepreneur and founder of boutique Duck and Dressing, and philanthropist, who remains active with a variety of organizations that focus on children, adoption, and foster care.  



I have followed Korie, her mother, and several of her children on Instagram for a few years and also watched her daughter Sadie on Dancing with the Stars and have been nothing but impressed especially with the way her kids are turning out – particularly how much they genuinely love the Lord and their family and want to cheer each other on in life. Three things I want most for my family. This family is the real deal. Plus Korie is good friends with Jen Hatmaker (my other woman crush) so that gives her bonus points in my eyes. 



That is why I am THRILLED to share with you guys that Korie has written a new book “STRONG and KIND: And Other Important Character Traits Your Child Needs to Succeed,” that is all about parenting. Jackpot. I was so lucky to be sent an advanced copy of the book and have had a hard time putting the book down. I have actually read most of the pages twice and been working through it with an accompanying workbook. Korie is an entertaining writer and the content is gold. Every mother should read this book. 



In the book the mother of five argues hat developing good character in our children is the single most important thing we can do to help ensure they lead happy, healthy adult lives.  Robertson explores key traits and what they truly look like in action, asks readers to select the two traits that they hope to see most in their children, and shares hands-on ways for nurturing strength of character.  Written with her mother Chrys Howard and featuring stories and wisdom from husband Willie, STRONG and KIND cuts through the contemporary cacophony of parenting manuals to rediscover, unfold, and embrace the enduring wisdom that has guided the best parents for centuries. 

Do yourself a favor and order this book now. Because let’s be honest. We need all the help we can get. 

I have one copy to giveaway to a lucky reader.
