Janice’s Books

Kick that People-Pleasing Habit!
As a recovering people pleaser, Janice lays out a 6-step approach that she used in her own life to gain freedom from this disease to please. After learning and implementing this approach in your own life, you will experience life without the masks, the burnout, and the stress that is so common to people pleasers.

Read the book, implement the steps, and experience authentic POWER and FREEDOM!

Janice self-published her first book, “Bits & Pieces of a Broken Heart” in 2013. This book is a compilation of letters, poems, and speeches that she wrote during her separation and divorce. It is full of painful reflections and moments but shows a progression of awareness and growth as well as understanding and acceptance. If you are in a place of huge loss and great pain, this will resonate with you, give you hope, and remind you that you are not alone.

“My heart opens and closes. On the one hand, freedom and peace and love. On the other, constriction and panic and fear. Living in openness is where I want to be. The whole world will change if we open our hearts. One at a time. We’ll start with seconds and then minutes and then entire days.” Janice shares stories about her life and tools she uses to keep her heart open. At the end of each chapter, there are questions for the reader to consider and apply in their own lives.

This is a collaborative book with 18 other incredible authors with insights into self-empowerment. Janice’s chapter is entitled, “Jealousy Sits in my Bones”. In her chapter, Janice talks about the emotion of jealousy, where to comes from, and what she has done to walk through it. She outlines 5 steps to take control of jealousy (or any other negative emotion) instead of it taking control of you. “It feels a curse to carry, it feels like an evil spell, this jealousy inside my heart, I can see and taste and smell.”

The world was turned upside down during 2020. We have all learned to shift and pivot and let go of expectations. In this book, over 100 authors share the one habit they will use to thrive in a post Covid world. Janice keeps this book on her bedside table and reads one chapter every night. Her chapter is about embodying love so that fear has nowhere left to live.  “To get past fear, we must face the fear. There is no way around, underneath, or above it. The only way is through.”
