There is no way it is.
There’s only the way you say it is.
The Universe hasn’t made up its mind about you.
It only knows what you show it today.
You are the Inventor.
Your life is the Invention.
You get to make it up.
So make it up good.

You may have already heard of Gail Blanke, author of Between Trapezes. She is an acclaimed motivational speaker and executive coach, president and CEO of Lifedesigns. She is also the author of the best-selling In My Wildest Dreams: Simple Steps to a Fabulous Life. She has appeared on Oprah, and her work has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Time, Redbook, and Ladies Home Journal. Considering all of this, it comes as no surprise that her latest book, Between Trapezes, is inspiring and gives us the information we need to create a safety net when life seems uncertain.

Between Trapezes shows us how to embrace times of uncertainty and change with a sense of curiosity instead of anxiety and trepidation. Blanke relies on the stories of real people, who have successfully faced those dreaded in-between times (between jobs, between lovers, etc.) and dealt with such uncertainty head-on, embracing the change and moving forward with ease and success.

Much like a trapeze artist, we all have to release the bar. It is at this point that we have the ability to fly or fail – when we are between the trapeze bars or between times in our lives.

If you are dealing with change or uncertainty, Blanke provides you with a roadmap for making it to the next trapeze bar, having embraced your time of change and actually enjoying it.

Truly a page-turned, Between Trapezes is a must read for anyone who wants to handle change or times of uncertainty better.

Between Trapezes is exactly what we need to show us how to let go of the need to know. Use Blanke’s book to rejuvenate yourself and reinvent your life during change, instead of crumbling or shutting down.

Perfect for these trying times, Between Trapezes is also a great, motivational read for anyone who is content with where they are now, but looking for helpful tools to better cope with the unknowns down the road.

This book is more than just another motivational book. As Blanke so appropriately says to her readers, take her hand and fly… (and under her expert direction, you undoubtedly will).
