This review resonates with me as it explores how life's challenges shape our journey. Annie Meehan's personal anecdotes, like surviving Hurricane IAN, illustrate the power of resilience. The STORMS framework offers practical tools, reminding me to find stillness, openness, and support in tough times. It's an inspiring read on overcoming adversity and thriving.

I wish to appreciate Meehan for choosing her experiences as the reference point through which she could desire greatness, subsequently leading to her writing of this encouraging book. Thanks for the review.

"Choose to Soar: Navigating Disruption in Business and Life" by Annie Meehan is a book where hope will bring you out of any storm in your life. The author has made a plan to help readers when they face a challenge in their lives. "A storm will expose you and make you vulnerable in ways that you never thought possible. It strips away all the things we think are important to reveal what is hidden underneath." that's very motivating.

Choose to Soar by Annie Meehan is an inspirational book about facing the metaphorical storms in our lives. The author shares her strategies, tools, and techniques to ensure readers can navigate challenging situations by relying on family and friends when needed, keeping a positive mindset, and not allowing the storm to define us. It sounds like a great book, and I have added it to my 'To read' list. Congratulations on the BOTD!

The chapter on openness sounds incredible indeed, as it is true we do not have answers to everything, and I believe this is one of the things that unites humanity. Additionally, the fact that author poses a question on how one defines a storm is interesting. I definitely look forward to learning more about the STORM First Aid Kit. Many thanks for the amazing review.

The Eagle doesn't take cover in the rain but rides above the clouds. The fact that this is just not a rant into suffering of her life but rather an honest account of her life and how Annie choose to overcome those hurdles and managed to incorporate scientific concepts is an enticing read. Congratulations on the BOTD.

Storms are inevitable in life and so we'll need to embrace them whenever they arrive and find ways to endure through to the end. I would love to read the book and see how the author reveals the genesis if storms and the tips of managing through the trying times, as presented in the book.
