Choose Joy: relieve burnout, focus on your happiness, and infuse more joy into your everyday life is out now

Maybe you’re feeling exhausted, both mentally and physically, from the last few years and all of the uncertainty and change that came with them. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed and struggling to meet the constant demands on your time.

Maybe you’re finding it difficult to connect with the things that once added joy and meaning to your life. Or maybe you can’t even remember what those things were.

If you relate to one (or more!) of those statements, I wrote this book to help you.

“Grounded in the science of well-being and the author’s experiences of grief and burnout, this is a reassuring guide to listening to ourselves and meeting our unique needs with small daily choices, not just another one-size-fits-all, quick-fix formula. Each chapter feels like a deep exhale. Read it. You won’t look at joy the same way again.”

- Dr. Megan C. Hayes, author of The Joy of Writing Things Down: The Everyday Zen of Putting Pen to Paper

“Choose Joy is an empathetic and empowering resource for anyone struggling with burnout and self-limiting beliefs. The practical advice Sophie offers is something that we can all benefit from.”
