What readers are saying

Real words from women whose lives have been touched by Built, Not Broken.

"
This book wrecked me in the best possible way. I ugly-cried through half of it and felt seen in a way I haven't in years. Marcy doesn't sugarcoat the hard stuff — she sits in it with you and then points you toward the light.

From women who've been there

"I picked this up during one of the hardest seasons of my life and I could not put it down. Marcy writes like she knows exactly what you're going through — because she has been there. This book gave me permission to stop pretending I was okay and start actually healing."

"Every chapter felt like a conversation with a wise, honest friend who has walked through fire and come out the other side with grace. I've already bought three copies to give to women in my life who needed this message."

"I've read a lot of Christian books for women and most of them feel polished and safe. This one doesn't. Marcy goes to the real places — the shame, the doubt, the feeling that God has moved on without you. And then she shows you He hasn't."

"The chapter on identity hit me so hard I had to put the book down and just sit with it. I've been carrying a version of myself that was built on other people's opinions for so long. This book helped me start dismantling that."

"Marcy's vulnerability is what makes this book so powerful. She doesn't write from a place of having it all figured out — she writes from a place of having survived, and that makes all the difference."

"I started this book skeptical and finished it transformed. The practical lessons at the end of each section are worth the price of the book alone. I've been journaling through them for weeks."
