As most parents discover as they parent their children, confidence is critical to their children’s resilience, their peace of mind, their comfort in doing new things, and their happiness in the process and success in the result. Confidence is a gift that’s precious.

And that’s why building confidence is the mission for every book written by this author.

Whether the story is about

• a bear who envies his friends for their special traits before finding faith in his own unique traits,

• or a lost dog who becomes aware of natural instincts and intuition for guidance,

• or a little girl who gains comfort in doing new things by trusting in her natural strengths and talents,

• or a rock who gets chipped away by hard knocks and becomes resilient through tough times and thankful for the lessons learned that transformed him into his best self.

There is a confidence character emerging from every children’s story along with an interactive game at the end that pulls the reader into the transformation as well.

For adults, the books contain a lifetime of learning from extraordinary leaders who put the spark back into passion, purpose and presence, no matter your age or stage. REFIRE is the first book in this series.

There are six practices each tied to the letters in REFIRE. The six practices will help you plant seeds of…

Calm over chaos

Discipline over distraction

Possibilities over fear

Joy over regret

Living over reacting

And hope over resignation
