Thank you for helping launch The Tenacious Leader!

June 11 was such a great night! Though the weather was stormy in Minneapolis, it was a delight to see many old and some new faces! The party was exactly the celebration I hoped it would be!

The signature cocktail, The Tenacious Mule, a blackberry and ginger mule, was so refreshing and was a huge hit!

It was a joy to read from my new book and answer questions from the audience. One highlight was hearing the laughter as people shared their favorite chapter titles!

How can you help spread the word?

I am grateful for everyone who has purchased "The Tenacious Leader: Your Map to Over Change Fatigue." Here are few ways you can keep the momentum going and helps others find it:

  1. Share on social media and tag me: @wholisticchange on Instagram; Michelle Smeby or wHolistic Change on Facebook, Michelle Smeby on LinkedIn
  2. Write a review on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or Goodreads
  3. Ask your library to carry my book. Libraries buy based on what their patrons request, so single ask goes a long way:
