What transformation do you want to lead in 2026?

When I was a little girl, we didn’t have a television, so my main entertainment was reading. I would pull my beanbag chair up to the fireplace and dig into a pile of books. My favorites were anything to do with myths and adventures, like The Hobbit and Watership Down.

One winter break, I inhaled the entire 7 book series of the Chronicles of Narnia.

When I turned 11, in 1977, I went to to the movie t

Quotes by Pamela Slim  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“No one is looking out for your career anymore. You must find meaning, locate opportunities, sell yourself, and plan for failure, calamity, and unexpected disasters. You must develop a set of skills that makes you able to earn an income in as many ways as possible.”
Pamela Slim, Body of Work: Finding the Thread That Ties Your Story Together

“We are made to create. We feel useful when we create. We release our 'stuckness' when we create. We reinvent our lives, tell new stories, and rebuild communities when we create. We reclaim our esteem, our muse, and our hope when we create.”
Pamela Slim, Body of Work: Finding the Thread That Ties Your Story Together

“Your body of work is everything you create, contribute, affect, and impact. For individuals, it is the personal legacy you leave at the end of your life, including all the tangible and intangible things you have created. Individuals who structure their careers around autonomy, mastery, and purpose will have a powerful body of work.”
Pamela Slim, Body of Work: Finding the Thread That Ties Your Story Together

“Stories make us more alive, more human, more courageous, more loving.”
Madeleine L'Engle

“Introversion- along with its cousins sensitivity, seriousness, and shyness- is now a second-class personality trait, somewhere between a disappointment and a pathology. Introverts living in the Extrovert Ideal are like women in a man's world, discounted because of a trait that goes to the core of who they are. Extroversion is an enormously appealing personality style, but we've turned it into an oppressive standard to which most of us feel we must conform.”
Susan Cain, Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking
