After two years of hard work, "Fertile Imagination: A Guide for Stretching Every Mom's Superpower for Maximum Impact" is finally available on Amazon in Kindle format for just 99 cents, but only for today! This book is a valuable resource for moms, empowering them to harness the incredible superpower of their imagination. Just imagine the possibilities if each of us used our fertile imagination to envision a world filled with the things we'd like to see more of. Let's dive into this extraordinary journey together!

What do you want to see in the world? 

Do you want to see cleaner communities? Do you want to see exuberant kids? Do you want to see your company on the Nasdaq? Do you want to see your book on a bookshelf? Do you want to see your tech invention out in the world? Do you want to see generosity spread around the world? Do you want to see more Latina podcasters? Do you want to see cost-effective childcare? Do you want to see literacy rates go up? Do you want to see a 3hr:30 minute race time in a marathon? Do you want to see better solutions for humans with different abilities? Do you want to see more money in your bank? Do you want to see real flexible working conditions? Do you want to see moms in boardrooms? Do you want to see your movie on the screen?

What do you want to see?

Here’s my one vision: millions of moms using their potent superpower. We have the tools we need to fuel and sustain this effort toward making a maximum impact at home and around the world.

Fertile Imagination breaks it down to exactly what you need to rediscover your imagination in three steps from awakening your imagination, playing with your imagination, to stretching your imagination.

A fertile imagination can cast a powerful and compelling vision that will drive you to turn it into your reality even if it’s never been imagined as possible for mothers before. 

In this book, I feature my entrepreneurial + mom of 3 insights along with those of 25 highly imaginative guests culminating with the CEO of GivingTuesday Asha Curran as a case study of using a fertile imagination to its maximum.

Imagine having access to practical insights you can tailor and I help you reimagine from…

Suzy Batiz, Inventor of Poo~Pourri – self-trust Beth Comstock former General Electric CMO – permission to be weird Lisa Messenger Australia’s Entrepreneur’s Entrepreneur,- impostor syndrome as an asset James Altucher, WSJ best-selling Author of Choose Yourself – making the energy Martha Hennessey, Former New Hampshire Senator and House Member – phasing your dreams Phaidra Knight, Rugby Hall of Famer – exploring your craft from different angles  David Meltzer, Philanthropist and Entrepreneur- being unafraid to change your mind and ask for help Breeja Larson, Gold medalist, London 2012 Olympics-make your inner child proud David Roberts, NY Times Children’s Book illustrator of Questioneers series Asha Curran CEO of GivingTuesday, and others

One of the great advantages is that you can always have this valuable wisdom at your disposal. By purchasing the Kindle version of the book, it becomes yours forever, allowing you to read it at your own pace. Additionally, you can share this book with a friend, engaging in discussions about the ideas presented or supporting each other's growth. With U.S. Kindle sharing, there is no need for a separate device, making it even more convenient.

I want to leave you with this – how do you know this book is worth the effort of shopping it today and reading it when you’d like given that you have finite time and energy?

Why is this a must-read for you regardless of what season you are in as a mom even if you are in the thick of it….this is relevant to you and important….especially if

If you have ever gone through the day and wondered to yourself: what did I accomplish today….yeah the days are long but the years are short…same is true on our end…use the same lens to see yourself….30s, 40s, 50s the decades pass by….it’s about being intentional and the book can help If you are doing or have done the work to heal….the body keeps score, meditation practitioner, opening wound after wound….it’s a lot of work and this book does not feel like work…but it’s getting in there and empowering you If you admire other people for their creativity and WISH you had their talent….it’s very much like The Artist Way by Julia Cameron for moms who lost their ability to dream big…who want to rediscover their imaginations If you feel left behind and like “chicken liver” If you seek reassurance that you’ve got this If you feel like you’ve been in skills and talent purgatory waiting for the perfect time when schools don’t shut down due to floods, when kids don’t stay home sick, when childcare doesn’t fall apart…it’s about moving forward alongside that too….taking a dream and making progress…every season of motherhood

If you’ve ever asked yourself these questions:

Why do I want more? What about my big ideas? When do I get to play? Where can I find the energy? Who else is going for it and getting it done? How can I stay relevant and keep growing? What if I don’t want to wait until my kids are grown?

What is this book? It’s for the little girl in your heart who is relying on you not to fall apart nor give up on her dreams

What is this book not?  It’s not a parenting book. It’s not a self-parenting book. It’s not just for moms with kids at home. 

It’s for a mom who refuses to let go of why she existed in the first place before she ever had a child….to make a difference, to believe in herself, and to use all of her inner resources no matter what to experience her fullest expression of life and on her terms! It’s for a warrior of a mom….

On this Halloween, I want you to treat yourself to something special. You deserve it for all the love and care you pour into your family's happiness, especially during holidays like today. Take a moment for yourself and shop the Kindle format of "Fertile Imagination" between 10 am and 3 pm EST. This book is not only a gift for you but also a wonderful present to share with a friend if you're in the US. Embrace this opportunity to indulge in some well-deserved self-care and enjoy the magic of this day.

It’s only $0.99 TODAY. Let me know you believe in moms realizing and living out their dreams side-by-side with their children by getting your copy today.

Next step: Go to Amazon at 10 am EST to 3pm EST….to make your 99-cent purchase to show your support …..

The 99-cent purchase is like a vote for moms who want to dream big and need a roadmap....I know a lot of moms can use this resource... https://amzn.to/3F6AgMu
