"Do you feel trapped in your work and life?

Do you feel empty and unfulfilled?

Do you see happiness as something you will achieve ""one day""?

The sad truth is, achieving society's definition of success - an impressive career, status and wealth - can be a hollow victory.

Yu Dan Shi knows this all too well. A lifetime spent chasing endless goals and the appearance of success came at a huge personal cost: a punishing workload while raising a family, a daily battle devoid of meaning, failing health and misery.

Facing the truth was a painful yet life-changing experience. It had been a long, difficult journey from her underprivileged beginning in remote China. But the void Yu Dan felt at the height of her corporate career was a gift. With a new vision of success and clarity about what truly mattered to her, she transitioned to a path of passion, joy and meaning. Her book will show you how you can do the same.

Change doesn't have to be daunting. You don't have to upend your life and throw away everything you have achieved. In this transformative book, Yu Dan explores the conflict faced by the high achievers and guides you through her four proven and research-based principles, giving you the practical steps to make real, sustainable changes to your life.

You can be happy now. You can transform your life. You already have everything you need to get started, right now.

So, are you ready to come alive?"
