Selfish: Permission to Pause, Live, Love and Laugh Your Way to Joy
ThigPro Publishing
It’s time to redefine… Selfish women get the life they want…
Are you exhausted from work/life burnout? Do you lack balance, or does love always
seem to pass you by no matter how hard you try to connect? Maybe it’s time to get Selfish…
Naketa Ren Thigpen, the #1 Balance and Relationship Advisor in the World, presents a

Are you exhausted from work/life burnout? Do you lack balance, or does love always
seem to pass you by no matter how hard you try to connect? Maybe it’s time to get Selfish…
Naketa Ren Thigpen, the #1 Balance and Relationship Advisor in the World, presents a
book for ambitious women everywhere… In Selfish, Naketa shares her own deeply personal experiences as an ambitious woman who battled dysfunction, trauma, abandonment, and toxic relationships… All while growing a family, career, global business, and re-igniting the sparks in her marriage.
Naketa guides you along her journey, and shares how you can move from breakdown to
breakthrough. After reading this book, you will:
• Change the conversation. Redefine the terms used to make so many women play
small, give birth to your biggest dream, and create your joy!
• End ‘over-giving’. Quit spreading yourself too thin, and focus on the relationships
that really matter.
• Stop believing in false narratives that hold you back, diminish intimacy, and keep you stuck in survival mode.
• Break the pattern… Re-script disruptive cycles of unhealthy, toxic and energy draining ‘situationships’ that bind your brilliance.
Selfish isn't a license to be insensitive, egoistic nor inhumane. It’s a movement that
gives you permission to pause, live, love and laugh through your pain, and find your way
to joy. A necessary remedy to over-giving and cyclical unhealthy relationships. Learning to get a little selfish is the missing ingredient to holistic self-care and improving mental wellness. You'll gain access to hope, healing, and victory, and shatter the cycles of shame
and guilt that are keeping you from the life you deserve…

Tune In ♫ Balance Beam Experts Podcast

This made me think about how many other execs, small business owners or entrepreneurs are also dealing with the same issues? So over a year and a half ago, I began to reach out to my network (that's…
Most women and men who I had an opportunity to connect with admitted they were lacking balance between their personal and professional life, have strained boundaries that are screaming, “I need an overhaul” and notably struggled with their confidence in either their work and/or personal frontier. This made me think about how many other execs, small business owners or entrepreneurs are also dealing with the same issues? So over a year and a half ago, I began to reach out to my network (that's where it always starts) and interview successful men and women who are top tier corporate professionals, thriving entrepreneurs and established small business owners and have a raw and revealing conversation on the how to's, dare not's and unavoidables of balance life and business. Balance Beam is tilted towards the focus of succeeding in life regardless of bank account balances and every expert interviewed shares nuggets on how they've accomplished just that!
