When giving is your calling, when do you not answer the phone?
On the morning of November 6, 2024, Tara Jaye Frank found herself on her literal knees, grieving not only the state of a nation but the state of her soul. A helper by nature, a builder by calling, and a survivor of trauma, heartbreak, and the relentless grind of leadership, Tara reached a breaking point. And from that brokenness came a holy reimagining.
You Are Before the World is not a book about burnout. It's a book about becoming. Soothing your soul and strengthening your spine, it welcomes you into the sacred space between leaving it all on the field and opting out entirely. Tara shares her own story of personal reckoning and renewal, offering hard-won wisdom anchored in spiritual clarity.
With practical tools, radical permission, and soul-deep encouragement, this book reminds us: You existed before the assignment. You were known before the need. And in a world that needs so much, you don't have to lose yourself to make a difference.
There is another way.
In You Are Before the World, Tara turns her gaze inward, offering a vulnerable and visionary reflection for anyone who's ever felt tired of doing good, but is not yet ready to quit.
