Elaine and I were interviewed by Booktrib about our book and work. Here are a few of the comments made by the interviewer:

"Their latest offering, Purpose and Possibilities: How to Transform Your Life is beautifully timely. As we aim to create a kinder world, mental health is at the heart of the mission and is the backbone supporting every other potential advancement and enhancement. The book is poignant and speaks to our emotions, naturally, but it’s firmly rooted in practicality. It’s not just some motivational poetry to read once then leave on your coffee table untouched; it’s a manual for real resilience and lasting transformation."
