What sets us apart as a publisher is that we see no limits, no bounds to what we can do. Our entrepreneurial and creative spirit, along with our marketing savvy, drive our business. We take great pride that every book is a genuine partnership and highly collaborative journey with our author, something that is unique in the industry.

    We work with respected experts, thought leaders, and professionals in the fields of psychology, wellness, parenting, personal growth, and more, including Amazon and New York Times bestselling authors such as Lori Gottlieb, Judson Brewer, Daniel Siegel, Janina Fisher, David Burns, and more! Our mission is to connect knowledge with need, and in that spirit, we strive to create straightforward, practical, and credible resources that make information easily accessible to all.

    • Exceptional interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills with strong attention to detail
    • Willingness to take data-driven, calculated risks

    • Experience with foreign and audio rights
    • Editorial experience in combination with a background as a licensed psychologist, counselor, social worker, educator, or related field is considered a strong plus

    Our people create our success: We listen and learn, and we strive to meet or exceed the expectations of our customers, associates, and vendors.
    We go direct and assume competence: We expect open, honest, and ethical relationships, both internally and externally.
