Juggle without Stuggle

I was lucky enough to know the great Peggie O’Neill. I say great because as a mother, businesswoman, writer and humanitarian she left a lasting legacy and accomplished a tremendous amount during her life, most of it in service to others. She was a woman of presence and grace who truly walked the talk. Her enthusiasm was contagious. She died over a year ago to cancer, but her work and teachings continue on in her book “Juggle without Struggle”.

When I think of Peggie, she is smiling and laughing despite any hardship she faced in her life which were many. She unlocked the great mystery of how to experience true peace and gratitude despite what life threw her way. The central idea of the book is that as women we all face different challenges and struggles, some more than others. Struggles are a part of life and the human experience. We cannot, despite our best efforts avoid them and so the question becomes how do we continue on despite sometimes great difficulties. The answers lie in this book.

They are called the “peace secrets” and are woven throughout fictional stories of mothers facing every day challenges – loss of a job, failing marriage, health issues. I personally grew from reading this book and found that her concepts, when put to work are truly transformative. They are universal truths which provide a road map to peace.
