Danielle Henry Vaughn ’03
Danielle Vaughn, July 2018

If you’ve ever gone through a period of waiting on your “what’s next,” you know how trying and difficult that time can be. In The Waiting Game: Finding Purpose in the Midst of Your Storms, Danielle shares some of her own personal struggles and revelations that will teach you how to not only survive periods of waiting, but also how to find the purpose behind your storms.

You will be equipped to not only determine what each trial in life is meant to produce in you, but how to then use those lessons to get closer to your ultimate purpose in life. The Waiting Game is not just about sitting still. It’s about finding who you are and what you are capable of. You are more than your circumstance.
