“This epic contribution from Jim Loehr is fully compatible with the prevailing science of human flourishing: More than actual events, people's interpretations of those events--their stories-- determine their emotional states, and in turn their actions, health, and success in life. If you'd like to re-sculpt your life, the accessible synthesis of science and practice offered here can be a welcomed roadmap.”

“Jim Loehr’s practice-based work on story is consistent with a recent wave of academic research on self-narratives in psychology. The upshot: what we say to ourselves creates our reality and guides our actions. Jim’s work teaches us that through the stories we tell ourselves and others about what is possible and impossible, we limit ourselves or unleash unimagined potential.”
Susan J. Ashford

University of Michigan
“Just recently, we announced a plan to bring a condensed version of the program to all of our 2,300 employees. Jim’s new book, The Power of Story, brilliantly captures the essence of how and why the program works.”
