In Search of You: How to Find Joy When Doing More Isn't Doing It Anymore - Paperback

by Kasey Compton (Author)

Forget everything you think you know about success and self-care and learn how to really love yourself, with this revolutionary guide from an acclaimed therapist who gets it.

Many modern women experience a frustrating phenomenon: No matter how much we accomplish, the feeling of satisfaction we anticipated never actually comes. Raised in a society of gender-influenced expectations--be an amazing mom, be an extraordinary partner, be an incredible executive and execute on all these roles flawlessly--women have lost the one thing that can ever truly fulfill us: self-love.

Acclaimed therapist and self-love spokesperson Kasey Compton has been there. Through her own experiences with anxiety, divorce, and therapy, she was constantly searching for ways to become "better" and often thought the life of her dreams was just around the next corner. It took her over a decade to realize what was truly missing. Now, as a counselor, she's spoken with more than a thousand women who felt that same nagging emptiness, often asking, "Shouldn't there be more to life?" The answer is yes.

Backed by clinical research, professional case studies, and Kasey's expertise, this guide will help you:

• Unpack why your outward achievements don't soothe inner emptiness
• Embrace genuine self-love with intentionality
• Reconnect with your inner child, a source of hope and joy
• Stop running from your past trauma--and start to heal
• Tap into your deepest desires without fear
• Establish healthy boundaries and develop positive habits
• Set yourself free from unhelpful expectations
• Actively create meaning in your life

With In Search of You, you'll embark on a path toward authentic, lasting fulfillment--and more joy than you thought possible.

Author Biography

Kasey Compton, a tenured mental health counselor turned entrepreneur and author of Fix This Next for Healthcare Providers, quickly became a southern staple in business systems and operations. Her knack for systems-thinking with a relationally driven approach contributed to the successful curation of many multi-million-dollar businesses. By thirty-five years old, her businesses turned million-dollar profits because of the lean infrastructures she is able to create and her ability to sell sell sell.

After years of creating and scaling businesses, she realized that business is so much more than the hustle and grind. Though Don Corleone might disagree, business is personal. When Kasey embraced this fact, she found so much more satisfaction and heart-felt fulfillment from her businesses. Now she wants to help fem-preneurs everywhere experience the same joy she now feels walking into the office every Monday morning.

She has been called the Fannie Flagg of business by some of the industry's finest authors and editors, thanks to her artful use of playful stories and good old fashioned fun. Kasey's straight-up, sassy-pants approach to business has a way of painting word-pictures, making it easy for readers to conceptualize big truths. Much like a gourmet filet mignon on Lennox china--served with a side of fried green tomatoes and a shot of bourbon.
