A note from author
Melody Wilding, LMSW

This is the book I wish I’d had as an empathetic, driven person trying to find my way in my career and figure out how to believe in myself in the process.

It’s a guide to master your sensitivity and enjoy success—however you define it—without stress and overwhelm.

And once you redirect your sensitive striving toward strength and not self-sabotage, you can move through the world with ease and reach your full potential.

Drawing on my experiences as an executive coach, licensed social worker, and professor of human behavior, this book combines stories based on my clients’ experiences with sound, actionable tools you can use to cut through the stress, identify your purpose, and find the confidence to be true to who you are.

It’s possible to channel your ambition in healthy ways and to use your sensitivity as the superpower that it is.

I can’t wait to show you how.
