In her new book Empowered: Frame your Narrative, Own your Power., Ms. Sacks-Mandel shares how we can all overcome both personal and professional challenges. By framing ourselves as the hero, not the victim of our stories and forgiving those who have harmed us, we free ourselves from the burden of carrying past pain. Taking responsibility for our narrative enables us to own our power, choose our purpose, and define our own version of success. She believes that true power is the power to empower others. Her life story is rough and yet she
finds the opportunity for humor, contribution, exhilaration and ultimately joy and serenity.
