Jill Wintersteen’s life—and all its highs, lows, miracles, and mayhems—awakened an inner truth: She has the power to create any life she desires. Here, in her first-ever book, Wintersteen shows readers how they can harness this power, too, as she shares her personal story of leaving a promising career in neuroscience to follow her intuition and create a thriving online community with millions of spiritual seekers around the globe. Filled with practical tools and insights to navigate life’s challenges and emphasizing the importance of intuition and self-awareness, Spirit Daughter is an invitation to rediscover your power. Through her own experiences of overcoming anxiety, depression, and self-doubt, Wintersteen reveals how to create calmness within, no matter what is happening externally, and unlock your highest potential. This book offers a refreshing and transformative path rooted in mindfulness, cosmic energy, and the art of manifestation for anyone ready to take true ownership of their life. With Wintersteen’s relatable wisdom and heartfelt narrative, which has drawn com parisons to influential spiritual leaders like Gabby Bernstein and Chani Nicholas, Spirit Daughter is destined to become a classic practical guide for anyone ready to remember who they are and transform their life.

Since 2004, Dr. Lois P. Frankel’s New York Times bestseller has been an essential resource for women seeking advice and empowerment to stop sabotaging their careers and get ahead in the workplace. This completely updated and revised vital new 3rd edition is everything a modern working girl needs to get what she wants. We’ve leaned in, we’ve girl bossed, we’ve untamed, and it’s still challenging to be a woman at work.&nbsp;Though the workplace looks different than it did twenty years ago,&nbsp;women&nbsp;still face considerable challenges that men do not. In this new 3rd edition of Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office,&nbsp;Dr. Lois P. Frankel teaches you how to reject the "nice girl" mentality, which manifests as a distinctive set of behaviors learned in girlhood that ultimately sabotage you as an adult, and still exists in today's modern workplace. Dr. Frankel provides tools and guidance for eliminating these unconscious mistakes that could be holding you back in your career. Mistakes such as: Mistake #4: Believing Negative Self-Talk. Counter negative messages with positive ones.&nbsp; Mistake #26: Fear of Coming Across too Strong. Don't dumb down, shut down, or tone down—be assertive!&nbsp; Mistake #55: Poor Boundaries. If you're going to work from home, set boundaries. Mistake #85: Doing Instead of Leading. Picking up others' slack becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.&nbsp; You have the power to take control of your career without being controlling, to speak your mind while still being respected, and to chase your ambitions without fear or shame.
