The Power of Human shows us how to rehumanize and harness these unique abilities to improve our lives, beginning with our jobs.

By finding calm and overcoming anxiety, we don’t just feel more comfortable in our own skin, we invest in the missing piece that leads our efforts to become sustainable over time.
