“For Deborah McVay-Williams, organization isn't all about sock drawers and spreadsheets. It's more about finding peace. The (author) believes the goal of organization should be finding balance in life, so there's time for work, family activities and other obligations — and even fun. But that's not something that happens just from making lists and color-coding calendars. It also requires belief in a higher power. McVay-Williams is sharing her faith-based organizing strategy in Whatever Works for You.” - The Beacon Journal
“What a wonderfully helpful book! Whatever Works for You is so on-target in helping me focus. It’s easy to get overwhelmed and get caught up in not having enough time to get my work done. Your book is a great reminder that ‘Yes I Do,’ as long as I’m organized and intentional. Thanks for this gem.” - Joy Thomas Moore, President/CEO, JWS Media Consulting; Peabody Award winner; mother of author & Maryland Governor Wes Moore
“Debbie’s book was wonderful! Easy read and so inspiring! What I loved besides all the great tips and the importance of doing everything with faith in mind were the examples of three women, three different generations and three different ways of being. There is no cookie cutter formula. We must be ourselves to our core!" - Crystal Sabol, Akron/Summit Convention & Visitor’s Bureau, Akron, Ohio
