Choosing Wellness is a series of essays on how the author, Eileen T. O’Grady PhD, NP, PCC, scratched and clawed her way to wellness. It is full of unconventional wisdom to encourage others to develop their own wellbeing intelligence- a powerful reminder that we all have choices and it’s the little micro choices we make every day as well big decisions that move our life in a different direction. We all have agency and so many of us leave it on the table. O’Grady insists that we claim agency and live a life that does not need escaping from. Choosing Wellness is available at all book sellers.
