Mastin Kipp · 2017
71/100
👍 Worth It
Mastin Kipp builds a genuinely structured 40-day program around Campbell's hero's journey, which gives this more intellectual scaffolding than most Hay House titles. The Oprah endorsement and SuperSoul Sunday platform brought real readers who report authentic emotional impact, and the trauma-to-purpose arc is well executed. Readers from traditional faith backgrounds should know the spiritual framing is explicitly eclectic — God, the Universe, and Higher Power used interchangeably throughout.
✦ Penny’s Take — this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read — not a page-by-page personal one. The gold ✓ Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
⚠ Parent note — our reviewers flagged: Spiritually eclectic framing (God, Universe, Higher Power used interchangeably); published by Hay House with New Age associations — not compatible with traditional faith frameworks.. We still scored it 71; these are context for your family, not an automatic skip.
