Please allow me to introduce my new book...

Your Best Year Yet: Weekly Personal Growth Challenges to Unlock Your Best Self

I wrote this book because, after years of studying neuroscience and psychology and decades of helping people overcome obstacles to living vibrantly, I kept seeing the same pattern:

People don't just need information, they need structured practice.

Small, meaningful shifts they can actually sustain.

What this book really is...

This isn't a book you binge in a weekend.

And it isn't a book that drags out one concept over 300 pages.

It's designed to be read in weekly chunks that each cover:

  • A common human struggle (comparison, procrastination, fear of wasted time, overthinking, harsh self-talk…)

  • A bit of science explaining why our brains fall into that pattern

  • A simple weekly experiment to help you test a new response

Think of it less like a motivational pep talk or lecture and more like a steady guide walking beside you.

No dramatic overhauls - just 52 small, weekly, intentional shifts that compound over time into a life that feels aligned, authentic, and fulfilling.

Why it matters to me...

Over the years, I’ve watched brilliant, capable clients talk to themselves in ways they would never speak to someone they love.

I’ve seen how quickly confidence erodes when inner narratives go unchecked.

I've seen expectations ruin the ability to see and appreciate the good.

And I’ve also seen the amazing transformation that can unfold when someone begins to shift those habits - gently, consistently, free of judgement or shame.

That’s what this book is about.

Your best self isn’t found - it’s built, one small choice at a time.

What readers are saying...

“Your Best Year Yet reads less like a traditional self-help book and more like a steady, supportive conversation that unfolds over time. It's a book for people who value reflection, consistency, and practical tools that fit into real life.”

Likely Story Book Blog

"This isn’t just another “self-help” book, it’s an invitation to step into a more intentional and meaningful way of living. I especially appreciated how the book breaks big concepts down into doable steps, paired with weekly challenges that keep you moving forward."
