Synopsis

As busy and professional Moms we often settle into habits that aren't supportive of our lifestyle goals. The resulting feelings are frailty, fatigue and loss of confidence. Statistics Canada indicated in a recent study that only 1 in 5 adults achieved the recommend 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity weekly suggested by Canadian Physical Activity Guidelines. In order to regain or maintain our strength, energy, and vitality its incumbent on each of us to "Just Decide" to establish and maintain personal agreements to better support our body, mind, and spirit. Doing this requires clear goal identification, planning, action, and consistent assessment of our progress. Prioritizing ourselves is of utmost importance though it's typically not the norm for busy and professional Moms.

In Just Decide, Carrie Brooks invites the mature woman to better understand her core values as well as identity and overcome her limiting beliefs. Having a clearer perspective of our authentic self better enables us to plan and achieve our optimal wellness and vitality. With the direction of 5 Proprietary Guidelines and practical involvement you will build the beliefs and habits necessary to develop and adopt your new Agreements in Body, Mind & Spirit. These guidelines act as a roadmap enabling you to build and establish your new health boosting practices. The various health and wellness suggestions outlined within offer a plethora of ideas for you to customize your plan and experience to best suit your wants.

Being a mature and professional Mom with over 20 years experience coaching sophisticated clients has yielded me fabulous insight into the many ways we can succeed. Clients have enjoyed loss of body fat, greater strength and range of motion, decreased blood pressure, decreased blood sugar, increased bone density, better sleep and improved confidence. There's no one size fits all approach and I've found many tactics that have guided women such as myself to achieve the strength, energy, and vitality they seek.

Sales arguments

  • Statistics Canada indicates that only 1 in 5 adults achieve the recommended 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity on a weekly basis.
  • With almost 1800 followers on varied social media platforms I'm fortunate and grateful to motivate and educate people to increased vitality.
  • It is estimated that in 2021 1 in 3 Canadians will be over the age of 55.
  • With 20 years experience coaching hundreds of mature clients I've established a no-nonsense approach to motivate them and you to increased physical activity and healthier lifestyle choices.

Similar titles

  • The Four Agreements, Don Miguel Ruiz. Amber-Allen Publishing 1997. The similarity between this book and my own lies in our ability to change or re-create our own agreements as they pertain to our body, mind & spirit.
  • Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill. The Ralston Society 1937. Aside from what the title indicates, this book is about getting what you want by following principles intended to change your mind. This is where the similarity to mine exists.
  • The Obesity Code, Dr. Jason Fung. Greystone Books 2016. While this title offers specific direction on the subject of diet the similarity to Just Decide lies in the guidance to change your mind and follow 5 basic steps.

Audience

The busy and professional Mom often settles into habits that don't support her wellness goals and will benefit by assessing and correcting these behaviors.

About the author

As a mature and professional Mom with over 20 years experience coaching busy and sophisticated clients, I've guided them to define and achieve wellness goals. These achievements aren't limited to but include; loss of body fat, greater strength and range of motion, higher energy levels, decreased blood pressure, decreased blood sugar, increased bone density, better sleep and improved confidence. Engaging with clients individually as well as in small group settings has allowed for personal interpretations and discussion of guidelines used to achieve their goals.
My personal interest in expanding my reach and helping a greater number of clientele has driven me to online social media platforms, website development and writing my first book. Through the use of these forums and more, it is my intent to continue motivating and educating individuals who have made the personal commitment to improve their wellness by taking the first step; Just Decide!

Dear Author,

You worked hard to write your manuscript; finally, it's ready to release. You know that expert assistance is needed, but perhaps you didn’t realize that working with a publisher is no longer necessary—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and "share" more of your revenue whenever a book is sold.

1106 Design is an author services company. We offer all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher, transforming your manuscript into a market-ready book. But here's the difference: we help you secure print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in your name. This means you earn several dollars more for every book sold instead of a meager “royalty.”

We understand that your book is not just a passion project but also a potential source of income. That's why we offer a range of services tailored to your needs at affordable prices. Depending on your manuscript's word count and complexity, our packages range from $4,000 to $10,000. And here's the best part: after this one-time investment, every penny of net revenue from book sales goes directly to you, never to us.

If this sounds like a better way to publish your book, I invite you to browse our services, design samples, no-surprises pricing, outstanding customer reviews, and educational articles at https://1106design.com. You can download a free PDF of my book, "Publish Like the Pros: A Brief Guide to Quality Self-Publishing and an Insider's Look at a Misunderstood Industry," and request a free, no-obligation consultation.

1106 Design has been in business since 2001 and is rated A+ by the Better Business Bureau. We are a “Highly Recommended Expert” at IngramSpark.com and rated "Excellent" at Alli, The Alliance for Independent Authors, at SelfPublishingAdvice.org, where you can find a "watchdog list" of the best and worst publishing services companies.

How can we serve you today?

Sincerely,
Michele DeFilippo, owner
