About this listen
This audiobook features a foreword written and narrated by Elizabeth Gilbert.
Glennon Doyle's Untamed meets Brené Brown's leadership lessons in this essential guide for women, with hugely important discussions of race and privilege woven in.
Kemi Nekvapil knows the feelings of fear, vulnerability and powerlessness. Growing up in foster care, many times she had the doors to validation and opportunity closed to her because of her race and gender. Learning to make her own choices and use her voice without apology were her first steps towards a bold, purpose-filled life.
'This book is beautiful, it's thoughtful, it's instructive.' Elizabeth Gilbert
Now a highly respected executive and personal coach, Kemi has created a five-step framework to guide other women to build their power through:
Presence to understand what is and isn't working in our lives
Ownership of our personal narratives, especially our power stories
Wisdom about our needs, boundaries and growth
Equality as part of the diverse human family, all of us worthy
Responsibility for our choices, healing and happiness
Blending inspiring stories with reflective coaching practices, POWER provides the tools to navigate the challenges that impact who we are and how we lead, from discrimination and burnout to trauma and self-doubt.
Reclaim your power and create a life of true joy and fulfilment.
Critic Reviews

POWER is a reflection of this strength and assuredness and it's my hope that we can all learn from this incredible guide and live and lead just a little bit more like Kemi!'

This book challenged me in ways I can appreciate, gave me actionable reflections and expanded my ability to be in the world unapologetically.
One thing that really stood out to me is the idea that the system isn’t broken, it was designed to exclude and is built on negating our needs. On some level I knew this but the way Kemi expressed it took it to a new level. It helped me see my own behaviour through a new lens and to stop feeling bad about asserting what works for me and what’s important to me.
This book has inspired me to see our social system in a different light and forge my own path without feeling alone. As someone who has done a lot of self development, therapy and personal growth work and as a leadership coach myself, I don’t often find something that has such an impact. It’s what I needed right now, I clearly have a lot to learn from this remarkable woman. I heartily recommend this book.
Unapologetically Awesome

I have listened to many audiobooks, but this one hit me on another level. Kemi has researched power deeply and shares many quotes and references, I found myself inspired and learning from the outset of the book. She dives deeply into the importance of diversity and overcoming the challenges of discrimination.
The personal stories Kemi adds struck a deep chord alongside the compelling narrative of power. She forced me to reflect on power in my own life and I honestly feel stronger, wiser and more powerful as a result of reading this book.
Every word is gold. This is a life changing book.

In this book, Kemi successfuly helps us to find our voice, question and dismantle that which is often unquestioned, and ignite and own power within ourselves while reminding others of their power
Read this book. It is amazing. Kemi is amazing too. Living and leading without apology, open-heart kind of wonderful.
Kemi Nekvapil is a life-changer
