Elon Charlotte hosts Women of Elon book talk and signing

Jenna Michael '11, author of "Let's Choose Less: A Young Family's Guide to Simply Living" shared advice and best practices with fellow mothers of the Elon Charlotte community

The Women of Elon and fellow mothers of the Elon Charlotte community came together for a book talk and signing with Jenna Michael ’11, author of “Let’s Choose Less: A Young Family’s Guide to Simply Living.” Jenna answered questions about her book and about navigating the challenges of modern motherhood.

“Let’s Choose Less” is a lifestyle manual for moms seeking to simplify the world around them. Written by a stay-at-home mom raising four young children, the book chronicles the Michael family’s journey to de-clutter their home and calendar. It’s a unique parenting guide focused on practical solutions for reducing chaos and fostering a more intentional, peaceful life.

“It was a joy to connect with the incredible women of Elon and hear them share the heart behind Let’s Choose Less,” said Michael. “Their thoughtful questions and meaningful reflections reminded me how powerful it is to gather around conversations that inspire intentional living.”

Rachel Campbell ’13 says she has been a fan of Jenna’s work for years.

“When I saw she’d written a book, I knew I’d want to read it and share it with others,” said Campbell. “It feels special to be able to share the work of a fellow alumna with others in this same stage of life.”

Attendees received a signed copy of the book. Alumni interested in connecting with Michael can visit her website https://yourpurposefulparenting.com/ and find her on Instagram @purposeful__parenting. Learn more about her book on Amazon.
