My upcoming book is titled…

Me Power.

Team no subtitle won! I did not want to be confined by a subtitle.

The title of my first book, Me Power, is meant to be bold. It's meant to frame a different way of thinking about empowerment.

Dr. James A. Godley, Dartmouth University Postdoctoral Fellow, describes Me Power as “anti-self-help.” He explains:

You're not offering neat little gimmicks to "fix" people. In fact, your whole argument is so strongly in the direction of NOT fixing people. In this, Me Power is not a manual for people to fix their lives. It's a guide to changing one's perspective on why what others call "broken" or in need of fixing is actually a really precious potential and part of one's self. So when I say anti-self-help of course I mean REAL self-help, which is a way of thinking that comes directly from the best thinkers.

I'm racing the clock to finish all structural edits and layout by the deadline in two days. If you’ve never watched the “Final Countdown” video, you’re in for a treat.
