***THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER***
Discover how to adapt to change and learn to find strength, happiness and growth in the chaos, with the inspiring new book from cognitive scientist and host of the award-winning podcast A Slight Change of Plans, Maya Shankar.
"A rare combination of beautiful storytelling, cognitive science and wholehearted wisdom" BRENÉ BROWN, bestselling author of Daring Greatly
"The book we all need when life knocks us sideways" MEL ROBBINS, bestselling author of The Let Them Theory
"I loved The Other Side of Change. Moving and powerful" MALCOLM GLADWELL, bestselling author of Outliers
An unexpected diagnosis. A breakup. A redundancy. When life throws a curveball, this book helps us through.
Change isn't something to just endure. It doesn't have to leave us feeling stuck, hopeless or broken. Approached in the right way, it can lead us to uncover new abilities, perspectives and values, transforming us in extraordinary ways.
After an incident in her own life left her reeling, pioneering cognitive scientist Maya Shankar managed the uncertainty by dedicating herself to researching the mind. Now, her powerful book invites us to rethink our relationship with change altogether.
Sharing the riveting stories of others who have also gone through remarkable disruption, Maya unpicks scientific insights to illuminate the universal lessons hidden within them. Exploring our complex reactions to all kinds of change, from denial and guilt to rumination and stagnation, we’re offered tools and strategies to unlock our full potential in the face of upheaval.
Whether you're processing a past change, grappling with a present one, or bracing for a future one, discover who you can become on the other side of change.
Maya Shankar is a cognitive scientist and creator of the podcast A Slight Change of Plans, named “Best Show of the Year” by Apple.
