Introducing The Power of Agency, a science-backed approach to living life on your own terms.

Grounded in extensive psychological research, The Power of Agency gives you the tools to help alleviate anxiety, manage competing demands, and help you live your version of success. 

Renowned psychology experts Paul Napper and Anthony Rao will help you break through your state of overwhelm by showing you how to access your personal agency with seven empowering principles: control stimuli, associate selectively, move, position yourself as a learner, manage your emotions and beliefs, check your intuition, deliberate, and then act. 

Featuring stories of people who have successfully applied these principles to improve their lives, The Power of Agency will give you the insights and skills to build your confidence, conquer challenges, and live more authentically.

If You’re Ready to be Pushed...

What a great reminder of how much control we actually have in life. This book helped me reset and refocus in several areas. I’ll definitely be listening again and suggesting to friends, family, coworkers and strangers.

Great!

I really enjoyed this audiobook! I'm going to go buy the paper copy now so I can easily flip through the chapters whenever I want 😊

Great book

Loved it. Very impactful if u study it and apply it. No easy way to it. Put in the work.

Build your agency and correct where you slip

Loved the book. Beautifully referenced to trusted sources like Elsevier, Gallop and others. Summarizes the core of your agency muscle and points you toward deliberate avoidance of bias thinking.

Excellent listen

There were so many thought provoking and even life altering ideas in this book. The information was logically organized and clearly presented.
