"Flourishing begins with us, but it doesn't end with us."

We've all been there-so consumed by pain and heartache that each day is a fight to keep one's head above water. Survival mode isn't always bad; in many cases, it's an adaptive response to the presence of a threat. The trouble arises when it becomes our default setting.

Decades of work with individuals and families seeking treatment led clinical psychologist Dr. Wayne Hammond to a forward-thinking discovery: people must know what's right with them-not what's wrong-to thrive. The Flourishing Advantage chronicles remarkable client success stories that will teach you to:

-Bring your strengths to the forefront to unlock a life of meaning and fulfillment.

-Use life's challenges as a conduit for discovering those strengths.

-Leverage your innate talents to begin the journey of personal and professional transformation.

-Embrace a cognitive paradigm shift that capitalizes on your strengths and eclipses what you lack.

-Apply a strengths-based approach to every relationship you value, and watch those relationships thrive and prosper!

You were never meant to stay a survivor. Everything you need to thrive is at your doorstep.
