Synopsis

Most women know self-care, mental health and wellness are integral to long-term success in life and business. But what they most likely don’t know (or won’t admit) is that they are the largest factor for why they haven't achieved the level of success they seek in their lives.

Understanding their role in personal self-care as well as their behavioral patterns of these different personality types can be the missing element in shattering habits that hold us back. This book from Adonica Shaw on the eight self-care personality styles and leveraging them for professional success will guide readers into deeper insights about their subconscious patterns, self-care style, and intrinsic views about how women are allowed to care for themselves.

Adonica believes women can have anything they want and can live a healthier, balanced life once they understand their commitment to self-care and a wellness mindset is the missing piece in their 5-year plan. No one is better equipped than Adonica Shaw, founder of Wingwomen Inc. and Surrender Circle, and creator of the self-care personality assessment to help women break the glass ceilings that lay dormant within themselves.

This book is perfect for women who often ask themselves:

*What are my beliefs around how women should take care of themselves? As mothers, professionals, women?
*What did self-care look like for me as a child? And I'm perpetuating outdated norms?
*What is self-care anyway? And what kind would suit me best?
*How does my own commitment to self-care pave the way for other exceptional women leaders?

This self-care manifesto for professionals not only answers these questions but gives women multiple ways to reconsider how they are showing up for their life.

Audience

This book is for the emerging ceiling breaker in all of us. It is for any woman who desires to break through the norms in her field, and defy the odds through strategic self-care and wellness. From a content perspective, we believe it will appeal to three sub-sects of women readers globally which are: 1. Emerging Ambitious Professional Women (Gen Z - Millennials)2. Established Professional Women and Thought Leaders (Millennials - Gen Y)3. Ceiling Breakers - Exceptional Women Around the World Who Are on a Trajectory to Lead or Disrupt their Industry (likely Millennials to Xennials)

Advance praise

Reader Reviews from Shaw's first book "Depressed to Daring" (pub 2/20)

1. "Depressed to Daring was a bit of an odd choice for me to review; at this stage in my life, I work for myself and didn't think I needed help overcoming the glass ceiling at this stage in my career and life. But, upon reading this book, I realized that not only do I wish I'd read it in my 20s but that the concepts outlined in the book are just as usable and relevant for me in my 50s as they would have been earlier.

Shaw argues that women often miss out on opportunities because of our training. We're told to suppress our emotions, rather than confronting them and using them to propel ourselves forward. We often shut down because change is scary. We create our own glass ceilings, Shaw argues, and we become people-pleasers. Her solution? Reflection, understanding of our triggers, and building skills to respond to situations rather than reacting when we are triggered. In addition, the book forces readers to focus on their own emotions and to let go of the idea that we're responsible for what other people feel.

Shaw creates a tone here that is not unlike what you'd want your best girlfriend to take with you when you aren't treating yourself well or engaging in negative self-talk. While the tone is empathetic, Shaw doesn't hesitate to tell readers what they need to hear regarding radical self-care, how we've built patterns and behaviors based on years of conditioning, or how we need to turn to others at times to move forward. Part of what makes this effective is Shaw's willingness to share her intensely personal experiences, including near-death experiences, personal relationship failures, and work problems." - Angelic Rodgers (Professional reviewer)

2. "Good Information about Emotional Health. Though I don't agree with everything the author shares (due to differing worldviews), the practical tips about how to acknowledge and work through emotions and triggers was really useful. I agree that women often view having emotions at all as seeming weak, and I hope that together we can all change that. We have emotions for a reason, and often they tell us when something is wrong. Also, it was a quick and easy read." - SNK ( Amazon Review)

3. "I was asked to give this book an honest review. I was very impressed not only by the message but also the honesty from the author. Not often do you connect so easily with a book on a topic, you weren't considered as yours. After the first chapter, I was thinking of myself and every ambitious woman I know and saw similarities. I learned a lot and that is what reading is for, right? I will highly recommend!" - Lauren B ( Amazon Review)

4. "A well-written book. The methodical way this book is laid out helps the reader pull information that can help them arrange their thoughts and see patterns they can change the way their lives are ordered. I believe the authors ability to infuse her personal testimony into this book was very helpful. For linear thinkers, those who deal in facts and truth instead of their feelings, it's helpful." T. Lindsey (Amazon Review)

5. "Inspiring Read. Great book focused on the importance of self-care. It really focuses on giving sound, actionable advice!" - David and Christine (Amazon Review)

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 know that it’s no longer necessary to work with a publisher—especially publishers who charge fees to produce your book upfront and deduct more costs on the back end whenever a book is sold.

1106 Design is an author services company. We provide all the editorial and design services you’d expect from a publisher to turn your manuscript into a market-ready book—editing, cover design, interior layout, proofreading, eBook formatting, and more—at the traditional publisher level. Unlike a publisher, we’ll help you obtain print-on-demand printing and worldwide distribution in your name so that you earn, in most cases, several dollars more for every book sold instead of a measly “royalty.”

We’ll customize a package of services to suit your exact needs at affordable prices ranging from $4,000 to $10,000, depending on your manuscript's word count and complexity. And we’ll manage all the intricacies of book production, so you don’t have to. 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.

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.
