Amy Newmark shares what she s learned from editing and writing more than 100 Chicken Soup for the Soul books. This irreverent and insightful look at the human experience provides a road map to a happy, productive life.
The perfect self-help book for people who would never buy a self-help book from the woman who admits she would be a terrible shrink!
Recovering cynic Amy Newmark was a crusader for truth on Wall Street, exposing companies that were defrauding investors, but the main emotions she wrote about were fear and greed. Now, as author and editor-in-chief of Chicken Soup for the Soul, she covers the whole range of human emotions and finds herself a much more positive and productive person.
Amy s journey from Wall Street to Main Street has changed her in ways she never anticipated. Still a maverick, with a dry wit and a penchant for self-deprecating stories about herself and her family, she combines the matter-of-fact approach of a financial analyst with the insights she has gained from tens of thousands of Chicken Soup for the Soul stories.
A keen observer on parenting, love and marriage, positive thinking, and work/life balance, she shares her wisdom, her humor, and her advice in this book, filled with real-life stories and no-nonsense, practical tips that readers can actually implement to improve their own lives.
