“I thought it was interesting, revealing, helpful, insightful, and something that others would be not only interested in, but could benefit greatly from.

I thought the stress charts were very good and something that others would find very beneficial. My stress levels were below 100 so that made me feel good :)”

Richard Marston

CEO of Rich Media, Chicago

“Having known An for many years and observed how her work has impacted the lives of others through her workshops and TV appearances, it is great to see that she has now authored “Leading The Boss in The Mirror” to make available her guidance to many more people. In today’s economy where we have to do more with fewer resources, I am sure that has led to additional stress in the lives of many people, so this book is a welcome and timely resource.”

My after thought

“To establish and live a contented and fulfilling life, you have to make conscious choices and create the lifestyle you are looking for.

Life will at times be in perfect flow and harmony and at other times slightly out of sync, then just remember it will always be a work in progress.

Create as many moments of calm as you can possibly fit in your schedule and have fun!”
