Book PRAuthor InterviewsContent CreationReviewsRadio

Jill Bausch was an executive living the "dream life''. She sipped champagne at the luxury hotels where she worked as a senior executive, traveled the world, and on the outside, looked as though she had achieved success. So why did she walk away? Bausch knew she wouldn't be fulfilled until she set her sights on much bigger missions: combatting the HIV pandemic and helping to uplift sex workers and women throughout the world.

Taking on the challenges facing sex workers and HIV+ people requires bravery. Going against what is expected from you, either as a woman, wife, mother or corporate executive, requires bravery. But Bausch knows that brave women really do win.

In Why Brave Women Win, Jill Bausch shares her story as a woman who used bravery to tackle imposter syndrome, find joy in failure, and transform into a real life hero. In this inspiring self-help book for women aiming to achieve all types of wins, you will learn:

  • Why it's important to learn to mirror confidence until it is natural and how to do it
  • Different levels of listening, and how they bring you closer (or pull you away) from reaching success
  • The seven habits of highly successful women and how you can practice them
  • What it takes to package yourself in a way that produces maximum impact without compromising your integrity or authenticity or your voice
  • How to be a lasting leader during turbulent times

Jill's story does not start with her on a direct path to success; she is proof that any woman can be a hero with a little bit of bravery. Allow yourself to be inspired by her experiences throughout the world, absorb her advice, and march forward into the world on your own hero's journey.

The Super-Helper Syndrome: A Survival Guide for Compassionate People

Jess Baker and Rod Vincent

Publisher: Flint Books ISBN: 9780750998864 Released: 29.09.2022

Book PRPublisher PRThought Leader PRAuthor InterviewsContent CreationReviewsRadio

Super-helpers are better at helping others than they are at looking after themselves. Maybe you’re one of them. Maybe you know someone who is. They are the backbone of the caring professions, giving strength to our schools, clinics, care homes and hospitals. You will also find them in offices, gyms, community groups and charities – everywhere you look — and there’s usually one in every family. 

But in their efforts to help wherever they can, Super-helpers typically overstretch themselves. Some face traumatic and distressing situations. In long-term caring relationships they have no time to care for themselves. In professional care roles, they work prolonged hours with inadequate resources. 

Deep down, beneath all their care for others, there is something that causes helpers to suffer. It lurks unnoticed. It dwells in the psychology of the helper and compels them to help others to the extent that they don’t look after their own needs. This is super-helper syndrome. Until recently this phenomenon has gone unnoticed and unnamed, but now it has been highlighted by two chartered psychologists, Jess Baker and Rod Vincent. 

The Super-Helper Syndrome offers a new perspective on the psychology of helping. It sets out how helping works and why it sometimes goes wrong. It brings to life psychological and neuroscientific research to explain the roots of compassion and empathy. It goes deep into the belief system of helpers and reveals what really motivates them. It illustrates all this with excerpts from a broad spectrum of interviews with paid and unpaid helpers, from ICU nurses to lawyers, volunteers to live-in carers. The book provides activities for the reader to profile and analyse their own helping relationships. It offers support for people who want to adopt a Healthy Helper Mindset, including meeting their own needs, building assertiveness and setting helping boundaries. It guides the reader towards countering the inner critic with mindful self-compassion. It’s only by doing these things that compassionate people can be most effective at helping others.
