This is mot a book, just a short repetitive article. A lost opportunity to tell us something interesting about Kristin’s life. Very repetitive. Not a work of any great significance. |

I would like to thank you for your kind support on Goodreads.
Although I have been a member of Goodreads for some time I have not been active because I have been very busy with my coaching work and my writing. Over the past 25+ years I have coached over 1,000 people on issues like work/life balance, communication, confidence and leadership.
I am now doing less coaching and less writing and wish to focus on developing my profile and my group "Become What You Can Become" on Goodreads so that I can help other authors and coaches to achieve thier ambitions.
Not being very experienced on Goodreads it was a great boost to my morale and confidence when you so kindly befriended me, liked my blog post, my profile and some of my reviews. Generosity such as yours is of inestimable value to people starting out on a new journey.
If I can help you in any way please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Best of everything,
David
