Tami Gaupp

Tami Gaupp — the owner of The Lanyap Life Books — is passionate about creating books that "pull back the curtain," demonstrating how to experience MORE than what we see during all the less-than, lonely, empty hours of life. She believes we are each made for MORE, and in addition to the gift of life, our Creator has left us something extra... the gift of LANYAP!

The Lanyap Life Books are concise, easy-to-read volumes of under 100 pages, brimming over with real-life inspiration and lighthearted depth to help you experience personal freedom. While she focuses on these accessible guides, a full-sized book is occasionally published.

Tami is also the collaborator and writer of the Journey to Wholeness booklet series. The J2W series is a 13-booklet course for personal freedom, made available for individual use by author Dick Sorenson, a professional counselor and Bible scholar.

Real, authentic, and approachable, Tami has a gift for sparking life back into others and isn't afraid of getting a little messy with the daily grind of living — and helping others get back up. The central theme in her writing is that there is more to experience through the adventure of discovering God's gift to us. She knows this well through her experience navigating an undiagnosed invisible illness for 30 years and through the uncharted course of sudden widowhood.

She says, "Finding the LANYAP God has for us is to find a resource that is more than we thought, more than enough, and extravagantly more than not."
