Description

Are you suffering from PESD?* (*Post Election Stress Disorder) According to The American Psychological Association, nearly two-thirds of Americans currently describe the future of the nation as a significant source of stress. We're watching the degradation of the highest office of the land, diminishment of our country's standing in the world, disregard for constitutional law (and possible obstruction of justice), erosion of civil and minority rights and disintegration of the social safety net, all while witnessing the on-going destruction of the environment. Many believe the president poses an existential threat to our nation. We are overwhelmed by outrage, frustration, fear, hopelessness, and anxiety. But in this era of socio-political turmoil, many of us are discovering aspects of ourselves that we never knew existed and understanding that we have also been provided an opportunity for growth and empowerment, personally and collectively. In Beyond Resistance, sought-after life coaches and activists Donna Lipman and Kathy Hertz provide practical tools and easily integrated solutions for coping with the stress of the Trump era - and everyday life. Through illuminating stories and exercises, readers will come away with an expanded understanding of themselves and others - ready to take on the world! Beyond Resistance is essential reading for anyone struggling to cope in the Trump era.

Author Biography:

Life coach Kathy Hertz proudly describes herself as "a card-carrying member of the resistance." She is the recipient of the George H.W. Bush Points of Light Award for volunteerism and a committed refugee activist. Service has been a major theme running throughout Kathy's life. She believes volunteerism is a form of activism. Kathy served as a political appointee at the Department of Defense during the Clinton Administration and has worked on numerous political campaigns. She worked previously in music management with David Bowie, Pat Benatar, and others. Kathy believes it is imperative that we address the epidemic levels of distress and overwhelm following Trump's election if we wish to avoid a public health crisis. She has brought together her coaching and activist experience to create Beyond Resistance. Donna Lipman began her life coaching and presentation skills training career when she was introduced to the work of New York Times best-selling author and transformational thought leader Debbie Ford. Reading Ford's books and participating in her Shadow Process retreat set Donna on an eighteen-year journey of personal growth and enabled her to touch the lives of thousands of clients and students. Donna serves on the Board of Challenge Day, a nonprofit organization designed to support connection and anti-bullying in schools (www.challengeday.org). She is often found in India or Korea, training technology innovators in presentation skills through the University of Texas. When Donna is not playing with her seven grandchildren, teaching, protesting, contacting her elected officials, or supporting candidates, she is singing with her a cappella group, the Texas Lovebirds. Donna's motto is, "Every voice matters."
