Best-Selling Author Frank Schaeffer

Frank Schaeffer is a New York Times bestselling author of more than a dozen fiction and nonfiction books. He joins us to have a conversation about his latest book Fall in Love, Have Children, Stay Put, Save the Planet, Be Happy. Frank is a survivor of both polio and an evangelical/fundamentalist childhood, an acclaimed writer who overcame severe dyslexia, a homeschooled and self-taught documentary movie director, and a feature film director of four low-budget Hollywood features that he describes as “pretty terrible.” He is also an artist with a loyal following of collectors who own many of his oil paintings. He has spoken at dozens of major universities, libraries, and museums from the Hammer in LA to Harvard, Princeton, and Yale.  Bestselling author Frank Schaeffer offers a passionate political, social, and lifestyle “blueprint” for changes millions of us know are needed to rebalance our work lives with thriving relationships: Fall in Love, Have Children, Stay Put, Save the Planet, Be Happy. Even before everything was disrupted by COVID-19, millions of Americans were already questioning capitalism’s “values.” We were already challenging the idea that your job defines you. We already knew something was wrong. Loneliness, frustration, and alienation were already on the rise. Even the most successful of us felt too busy, too preoccupied, and too distracted to enjoy what we intuitively know are life’s greatest rewards: vibrant relationships, family life, connection to others, involvement in our community, and the thrilling experience of love. Subscribe, share, and be part of a global movement to live with more peace, purpose, and gratitude.Learn more: https://www.BestEverYou.comExplore The Peace Guidebook + free gifts: https://www.BestEverYou.com/giftsJoin the Practical Peace Masterclass: https://www.besteveryou.com/peacemasterclassFollow Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino and Dr. Katie Eastman for more inspiration, tools, and real-life conversations on peace, change, success, and gratitude.Peace isn’t something you find.It’s something you practice.
