www.skyviewcoaching.com The Gift of Shift Discover the Key Within to Unlock Your Best Life By Ann Papayoti (with Tracey MacDonald) The Gifts Just Keep on Coming...You Can Welcome Them Or Resist! Recognizing and Embracing the Elegantly Wrapped Gift of Change and Adaptability Hidden in the Hardship and Challenge Ann Papayoti has endured some of life’s most brutal blows—her college best friend deliberately stealing her high school boyfriend; the loss of an infant child just shortly after he was thought to be out of danger, a belligerent and abusive husband, a child born with epilepsy and other neurological disorders, a family suicide, being bitten by a poisonous snake that resulted in months of chronic illness before being diagnosed, relinquishing a cherished foster teen whose actions threatened Ann’s family, and much more... And despite them all, Ann found the gift hidden within each of these experiences. The gift of choice in how to respond to the challenge. In her new book, The Gift of Shift: Discover the Key Within to Unlock Your Best Life , written with fellow life coach Tracey MacDonald, Ann uses many of these experiences to show how one can open that gift lovingly. Instead of freezing up, becoming resistant or giving in to depression, resignation or other unhealthy emotions, one can choose a better, more life- affirming, adaptable approach that can lead to new possibilities and a better pathway forward. Using “Gift” as the central theme of the book and each individual chapter, Ann relays incidences in her life that tested her at the deepest level, and how she rewrote her story to find the nugget of truth that provided hope, healing, resolve and wisdom. Cleverly written, with charm and heart, the chapters include The Gift of a Band-Aid, The Gift of Charlie Brown, The Gift of Grits, The Gift of Buoyancy , and more. As she states, the gift of the book itself, is to give readers “a clearer picture on how to make shift happen for yourself. It starts with becoming aware of your thoughts, feelings and actions, and in time, the key to help you unlock a lighter, happier, and freer version of yourself.” Each chapter includes questions the reader can ask her or himself to explore a parallel experience or lesson learned, and then a place to write their own story for reexamination, under the new light of the Gift of Shift. The book is written as a guide to make it easy to CHOOSE CHANGE! Ann is an international life, leadership and relationship coach. She is an International Coach Federation Accredited Professional Certified Coach, and a member of the Association of Integrative Psychology. Dedicated to waking people up to living their best life by helping them untangle from their past, Ann further helps them align with their values and connect to their higher purpose. Ann inspires people by sharing her personal experiences of loss, transition and triumph. Ann is especially known for the personal and compassionate way she guides people to their own insights and growth. The Gift of Shift is Ann’s gift to those who are struggling with life’s unforeseen consequences, and fear what is ahead. She shows how easy change can be once you embrace the gift within the challenge, and set your course for a lighter heart, an alternative emotion, and a surrender within the moment. The Gift of Shift: Discover the Key Within to Unlock Your Best Life is available on Amazon.com for $13.99 and on Kindle for $6.99. # # # Title: The Gift of Shift: Discover the Key Within to Unlock Your Best Life Author: Ann Papayoti Publisher: Iuniverse Inc (December 10, 2020) Language: English Paperback: 168 pages ISBN-10: 1663211256 ISBN-13: 978-1663211255
