Author Kelly Trach found her genius and turned it into a personally and financially rewarding business, doing what she loves for clients who value her. Trach’s guide to finding your own gifts and putting your genius to work has moments that may test your inner skeptic, but she also offers practical advice while avoiding the usual clichés. Trach's breezy, irreverent prose entertains readers and draws them into her stories of success and failure.

Summary

Discovering your gifts can change your career and your life.

After three failed business start-ups--despite Herculean efforts--author Kelly Trach slowed down and listened to what her body and mind were telling her.

By paying attention to her gifts, Trach built a successful business from scratch with only a few thousand dollars to invest. She has guided many others to similar success through a process she calls “finding your genius.” You won’t necessarily gain overnight riches or reach a four-hour work week. Instead, you’ll honor your unique, one-of-a-kind gifts and turn them into work that you’ll love, with purpose, skill, and financial benefit.

Identify your three to five key gifts and combine them into a job tailored for you.
