The Power of Reading!

I'm constantly amazed at the impact my books have had on people's lives. I received a call this morning from someone I do business with, because my book inspired her to quit her job. She's not the first. Two of my friends left their day jobs to pursue their passion, shortly after reading Dirty Secrets of the World's Worst Employee. Too many women to count have messaged me that they ended a relationship or marriage after reading Dark Confessions of an Extraordinary, Ordinary Woman. I hope Cottage Cheese Thighs has inspired some women to break up with the scale.

A small part of me feels guilty or responsible for these major life changes in other people's lives. If their business venture fails, I would feel like I gave them false hope. I can only imagine the number of ex-husbands who cringe when they hear my name. Fortunately, I know that my stories are merely the final nudge in a certain direction. No one quits their job or ends a marriage based solely on my stories. The idea was always in their head. I just put it on paper, so they could see it right before their eyes.

A bigger part of me feels proud and powerful! Sharing my stories has inspired other women to pursue the life they've always wanted. That was my original intention and seeing the effects it has on people in my life only inspires me to write more!!
