Author Biography

Carley Schweet once worked in the intense corporate world of New York City, spending her workdays people pleasing and her nights and weekends reeling with sleepless anxiety. She struggled with low self-worth and poor relationships. Worn down and tired, she experienced a life event that triggered a change within, and she began setting aside an hour a day just for herself.

Over the next two and a half years, she went through a process of personal transformation. She realized her issues arose from being afraid to say no-whether out of reluctance to hurt others’ feelings or due to her own crippling anxiety. So, she quit her corporate job, enrolling at and subsequently graduating from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in New York. Today, she is a Mindfulness-Based Life Coach living just outside of Seattle, Washington.
