Let’s admit it; life is tough. And the things you really want in life often seem impossibly far out of reach. But what if you stopped blaming others (i.e. your boss, your mother, your boss’s mother, etc.) for what’s holding you back and took a close, unfiltered look at the real root of the problem: you? Join Lauren Zander, life coach and creator of The Handel Method® as she shares the no-nonsense, funny, and groundbreaking method from her new book, MAYBE IT’S YOU: Cut the Crap, Face Your Fears, Love Your Life. Lauren’s take-no-prisoners brand of radical personal accountability and her proven step-by-step program has worked for bestselling authors, top businesspeople, award-winning artists … and now, you. Find out in this session why the fact that “maybe” it’s you is the best bad news you ever got.
