Adult; Business & Personal Finance
Are you giving your all every day only to be left feeling like you’re falling short at work and at home? Are you committed to growing your influence, impact, and income but unsure how to achieve more without sacrificing yourself in the process? CEO and business coach Amy Kemp has been there. She knows what it’s like to want more professionally while simultaneously feeling like there is no more time or energy left to give. And she has answers.
In I See You, Amy draws on her twenty years of experience growing her own successful business, as well as what she’s learned from coaching thousands of women, to give you the tools you need to increase your level of success while working fewer hours. You will learn how to set clear boundaries, how to leverage your natural genius to increase your income, and how to redistribute the enormous quantity of unpaid work you do at home to free up your energy and time.
Written in an intimate style with relatable stories and end-of-chapter exercises that will have you digging deep into each concept, this guide feels like a one-on-one coaching session with Amy. And while the idea of working less to achieve more may seem unconventional, if you bravely work through the book, making small daily changes and trusting the process, you will rediscover the best and most successful version of yourself personally and professionally.
