If you’re like me, you’ve wasted so much time worrying over what other people think of you, only to realize none of it matters. This book is the antidote. I now want to be famous to only five people—my wife and four sons—because that’s where fame matters and that’s where my real mission is. This book is full of vulnerable moments and good stories, but most importantly, it will change you. Go read it. Quick.

We want to be famous in a lot of places—at work, in society, and in our towns. But Josh and Christi show us so clearly that if we want to have a true impact—in our work, society, and towns—it starts with being famous at home. This book is clear, wise, and full of truth.

In a culture that prioritizes fame and success, our efforts to be recognized are often directed outward to the world rather than inward to our families. Then it is our families that get our tired, overwhelmed leftovers. In this book, Josh and Christi outline how to prioritize family. They offer reminders that those who too often get the least of us not only deserve but also bring out the best in us. I’m grateful for my friends Josh and Christi Straub—for their vulnerability, their passion for emotional health, and their commitment to bringing healing to families.

In today’s culture, it’s too easy to find our value in what we do for a living. Josh and Christi remind us that there is something else that holds significantly more importance—our role in our families. As an actress, people may use the word famous to describe me, but I would much rather be famous at home to my four biggest, forever fans—my husband and three children. Take a dive into this purposeful book to refocus on leaving a meaningful legacy by putting your family center stage.

When Josh and Christi first mentioned the phrase “famous at home” a few years ago, I started clapping. It’s such a perfectly simple, perfectly powerful way to think about the impact you can have inside your family. I knew the moment I heard their vision for this book that it was going to be a life-changing work. I’m so glad they’re sharing this idea with more than just me over a cup of coffee in Nashville. This is a book that every parent could benefit from, and I couldn’t be a bigger fan!

I’m so thankful for friends like Josh and Christi and resources like Famous at Home as my wife and I navigate parenthood in such a busy season of life. We’ve become more motivated and intentional about learning how to be the best parents we can be for our three kids. This amazing book has helped us grow and educate ourselves around what it really means to be famous and what kind of fame is most important. This will be a book we read many times over the years as we continue to grow and navigate our most important responsibility and honor—being a parent.

Famous at Home is not only timely but is also absolutely essential for anyone who desires to break the dysfunctional generational cycles they experienced growing up and ensure they are not repeated within their own family. Our friends Dr. Josh and Christi Straub not only provide a clear blueprint on how to do this but they teach it using their own lives. We highly recommend this book for those who are ready and serious about making their family a priority above all else.

The family is an “oven for growth” in which Mom, Dad, and their children all experience healthy ingredients such as attachment, structure, acceptance, and values. God’s design is that each person then becomes well-adjusted, loving, and competent. So often, however, parents feel conflicted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from one another, and those stresses are replicated in their children. Josh and Christi Straub have provided a tremendous resource to help parents become the successful, close, and happy family they have always wanted. Using their own vulnerable narratives, examples of people they have worked with, the latest neuroscience and research, and biblical principles, they give the reader a right-now and practical guide to starting in a new and better way.
Bob Goff
In a world obsessed with fame and fortune, Famous at Home is exactly what families should aim for—being famous to the people who matter most. Josh and Christi wonderfully articulate how you can intentionally show up for your family and navigate the roadblocks that will inevitably appear. This is the perfect book for anyone wanting to become the best version of themselves not only for themselves, but for their family.
