Description

What do you need in this season of life? With the same warmth and wisdom found in her popular newsletter, Slow Brew Sunday, Jules Acree meets you in the in-between with 30 thoughtful letters and gentle practices, guiding you to notice what might need to shift . . . even a little bit.

Are you stepping into something new, reassessing your goals, eyeing an overstuffed junk drawer, outgrowing an old identity, or wondering why the habits and routines you once loved aren’t sticking?

This Season of Life is an invitation to tune in to the season you’re in and redefine productivity not as doing more but as creating space for what matters most. Whether you’re feeling the fresh energy of new beginnings or the messy middle of figuring it out, looking for structure that helps you feel grounded, or savoring the everyday joys of a season that already feels good, this book meets you there.

Spend just a few minutes each week with a personal letter from Jules and an exercise tailored to help you take the next small step:

  • Notice when you’re stretched thin and saying yes on autopilot + a bandwidth menu to order only what you have capacity for
  • Reframe “failure” as a clue to what’s actually right for you + a fill-in-the-blank pep talk that gives you permission to try something new
  • Show up before you feel ready, even if it’s a little cringe + a courage check-in for doing it anyway
  • Build gentle systems that make it easier to reset when life gets full + a few low-lift habits to bring you back to center

No matter where you find yourself, This Season of Life helps you move through change with clarity, meet overwhelm with ease, and honor identity shifts with compassion.

“This Season of Life feels like a breath of relief, helping you recognize and give yourself permission to enjoy your current season. Jules is a friendly voice sharing practical tips while reminding you that everything will be all right.”—Aileen Xu, creator of Lavendaire

“In This Season of Life, Jules Acree shares relatable and refreshingly honest stories, sharp insights, and practical prompts and exercises that gently guide you closer to your truth.

I will be coming back to this one again and again!”—Lauren Kung Jessen, USA Today bestselling author of The Fortune Flip

“This Season of Life is a beautiful reminder that every season has something to teach us. In this book, Jules reveals her own struggles and realizations: Growth is not linear, you don’t have to be ‘ready’ to try something new, and failure can teach us important lessons. In our increasingly fast-paced and chaotic world, Jules redefines success and brings attention back to what is truly important—loved ones, inner peace, and choosing a path that feels right for you. I absolutely loved this book and the gentle practices and advice it has for designing a life that feels aligned with my values. Anyone searching for their next step in life should read this.”—Lauren Ling Brown, USA Today bestselling author of Society of Lies

“This Season of Life feels like a hand on your shoulder when you need it most. Jules has a rare way of meeting you exactly where you are, without asking you to be anywhere else.

These books that talk about living gently and slowly and going back to our roots as humans and back to creation, are some of my favorite. And this one by Jules is no different. Not only does the season of life cover how we can integrate slow and gentle moments in the busy, but also gives practical tips and routines on how to truly transform your life out of the rush of modern . I was super inspired by this book.

This Season of Life feels like a conversation with a lifelong friend, the one that’s known all the versions of you, and loved all of them the same. In a world where everything moves so fast, this invitation into gentleness, compassion, and slowness is a welcome relief.
