Feeling stuck? So was C.K. Collins, aka Kelly.
After experiencing a significant loss over five years ago, Kelly was searching for her new life, her new joy and a new love. She chose to do the hard work to heal and found a new path to empowerment. She chose to swipe right for herself (and she did some dating too).
The Swipe Right Effect was born out of gratitude for all the support and wisdom shared with Kelly in her own recovery from divorce. She shares stories from her personal journey and, importantly, she also interviews ten special friends who shared their hearts and time.
Collectively, they hope to give the reader ideas for a way back to their own happiness. Kelly describes this book as the moon reflecting the love light of others.
The interviews include stories of pain and renewal from many forms of loss. Their unifying hope is that in reading their stories, you will find your way, your power, and your joy.
Each chapter also contains an Empowerment Practice tied to the story so that the reader can work through challenges in their own lives.
Are you ready to change your life?
Industry Reviews
"Through her openness in sharing the universal emotion of pain, Kelly captures real life examples and solutions which are transferrable to every human being. Each personal story gives a spark of hope that there is a path through pain. As you read each chapter, you gain the awareness that you are not alone in your story. The exercises at the end of each chapter provide insight on how to move through as well as into your next chapter in life with greater peace and grace."
ï»ï»ï»ï»"If this book has found its way to you, take a moment and look around. Remember who you are and what your outlook on life, love and loss is. Then start reading. You will not be the same person after reading this book that you are now.
You are about to meet your new best friend, Kelly, and she is going to introduce you to some amazing women. Strong, Soft and Smart women who will never leave you. Your story and their stories will weave in and out of each other until wisdom, mercy, self-acceptance and gratitude are more real to you than ever before.
It would take three or four lifetimes to experience all the wisdom these stories contain. Yet, here it is. In one book- through one woman's adventures into living life wholeheartedly."
ï»ï»ï»Artfully crafted, this book intertwines Kelly's story with those that have informed hers which led to her own healing and moving forward.
"The Swipe Right Effect" isn't just for women or those going through divorce. It touches on universal truths of the human spirit and deals with all the emotions of discovery, loss, anger, forgiveness, and moving forward. The resources she offers are excellent.
I HIGHLY recommend this book to any reader who is going through life changes and wants to learn how to move forward, empowered and ready for all life has to offer.
"This book offers the great honor of finding yourself! Loss is so often delineated by divorce or death or job loss...relationship loss. All valid and catalysts. But, in the end, there is loss of self. Kelly does a superb job of articulating her own journey along with wise friends' journeys to rediscovery.....or first time discovery... of self! She celebrates and reminds who we are as individuals with our very own God given talents, skills and possibilities! She offers a challenging set of tools in a way that feels safe. Her vulnerability, and that of her conversation friends, allows our vulnerability that leads to wholeness. A slam dunk book!"
