SUMMARY:Need Inspiration? Two Inspiring Authors ready to help
DESCRIPTION:Get empowered with: \nUnbound by Steph Jagger & Careergasm by Sarah Vermunt \nWhen: \nMonday\, May 15th 6-8pm \nWhere: \nThe Store! \n366 Bay Street (South of Richmond) \n\n \nSteph Jagger had seen the ski-lift sign thousands of times—“Raise Restraining Device\,” it read—but one day she took it personally as a rallying cry to shake off the life she had for the life she wanted. She had always been a force of nature\, so why was she still holding herself back? Dissatisfied with the passive\, limited roles she saw for women when she was growing up\, Steph emulated the men in her life—chasing success\, climbing the corporate ladder\, ticking the boxes\, playing by the rules. She was accomplished. She was living “The Dream.” But it wasn’t her dream. \nIn a moment\, the sign on the ski lift became her mantra\, and she knew she had to change her life. So Jagger walked away from the success and security she had worked long and hard to obtain. She quit her job\, took a second mortgage on her house\, sold everything except her ski equipment and her laptop\, and bought a plane ticket. For the next year\, she followed winter across five continents on a mission to break the world record for most vertical feet skied in a year. What hiking was for Cheryl Strayed\, skiing became for Steph: a crucible in which to crack open her life\, melt it down to its elements and get to the very centre of herself. An emotional story of courage and self-discovery that will appeal to readers of Wild and Eat\, Pray\, Love\, Unbound will inspire readers to remove their own restraining devices\, whatever they may be. \n\n \n  \nSteph Jagger splits her time between Southern California and British Columbia where she dreams big dreams\, writes her heart out\, and runs an executive & life coaching practice. She holds a CEC (certified Executive Coach) degree from Royal Roads University and she believes courageous living doesn’t happen with one toe dangling in\, but that we jump in\, fully submerge\, and sit in the juice. Think pickle\, not cucumber. \n  \nYou can find her at www.stephjagger.com or on Instagram @stephjagger \n  \n  \n\n \nWhat is a careergasm? Does it feel as good as it sounds? \nYou bet your ass it does. A Careergasm happens when your work feels good. Really good. Like a groovin’ Marvin Gaye song. Like you and your work belong together\, and you can’t help coming back for more. \nBut how do you get your mojo back when you’re in a passionless relationship with your job? In Careergasm\, Sarah Vermunt leads the way. This playful\, empowering book for wannabe career changers is a rally cry\, a shot of courage\, and a road map charting the course to meaningful work. Filled with real stories about brave people making great stuff happen\, this how-to book will help you step out of your career rut and into action. It is written with love and punctuated with laughter. The snorting kind. And the occasional F-bomb. It’s a warm hug and a kick in the ass delivered by a straight-talking spitfire who walks the talk and has hundreds of thousands of people sharing her work online. It’s time to feel good again. \n\n \nA former business professor\, Sarah Vermunt is the founder of Careergasm\, where she helps people figure out what the heck they want so they can quit jobs they hate and do work they love. She writes about careers for Forbes\, Fortune\, Inc.\, and Entrepreneur. \nShe lives in Toronto\, Ontario\, and online at Careergasm.com. \n\n\n000000
