Becoming You - The Proven Method for Crafting Your Authentic Life and Career (Hardcover)

An inspiring, wise and highly practical method for discovering your true self and identifying the fulfilling career meant just for you.

No matter where we are in our lives, be it atop the heights of achievement or just setting out on our journey, we’ve all had that moment where we’ve wondered, What is my purpose? What was I born to do? The answer can feel just within our grasp or as far off as the horizon. Either way, how in the world do we get there?

Enter Becoming You, a joyful, deeply researched, and immediately applicable step-by-step guidebook to help you answer that very question. Original, research-driven, and transformative, Becoming You is based on the widely acclaimed class at NYU Stern School of Business taught by Professor Suzy Welch, a three-time New York Times-bestselling author, Top 5 career podcast host, CEO advisor, and tech innovator.

Becoming You opens with a shot across the bow of what Professor Welch calls the “happiness industrial complex” and its platitudes about joy and optimism. Happiness, she argues, isn’t a goal to chase at all—it’s an outcome. And not an outcome of manifesting or mindset-molding, but of doing the deep, often difficult inner work of building a meaningful, productive, and connected life.

Here Professor Welch lays out a practical and accessible 13-part methodology designed to help readers do just that. Developed over years of research, data analysis, and extensive testing, the Becoming You method teaches you who you are when you’re standing still, so that when you get moving, you know exactly which way to go. It’s about building the bridge between the life you’re living and the life you want, can, and should be living. In the lexicon of Becoming You, it is about finding your “Area of Transcendence,” which is made possible when:

• You live according to your deepest, most authentic value
• You’re aligned with your strongest and most unique aptitudes
• Your work is economically viable, and calls to you emotionally, economically, or both

Funny, warm, deeply personal, sometimes tough, and always refreshingly honest, Becoming You is packed with gritty real-life stories, thought-provoking exercises, and heart-opening activities. It’s a book with the proven power to change lives—turning fear and uncertainty about the future into confidence and a clear path forward.
