Publisher's Summary

Stop struggling and start living your best life - with the inspiring, proven program that's transformed more than a million people.

We are all experiencing unprecedented levels of stress and burnout. Exhaustion is at an all-time high. Leaders are depleted, employees are burning out at an alarming rate, and parents met their breaking point long ago. We are struggling and in desperate need of a new path forward.

In The Awesome Human Project, Nataly Kogan, emotional fitness and leadership expert and author of Happier Now, shows us the way. She makes the compelling case that while challenge in life is constant, struggle is optional. Here, she shares an accessible, super-practical, and un-boring guide for reducing daily struggle and burnout - so you can live, work, and lead with more energy, joy, and meaning, even during difficult times.

Nataly wrote The Awesome Human Project in response to her own journey. A refugee who achieved tremendous success, she had come to see struggle as a way of life. But her burnout taught her a powerful lesson: You can’t give what you don’t have. She writes, “Strengthening your emotional fitness is an essential investment in your success and leadership, and an act of love to everyone you care about.”

Filled with simple, science-backed practices and Nataly’s contagious energy, The Awesome Human Project will teach you how to strengthen your emotional fitness skills, create a more supportive relationship with yourself as well as your thoughts and emotions, reduce self-doubt, and cultivate more honest and meaningful connections with others.

The Awesome Human Project is a book that you do - not just a book that you listen to or read. It includes:

  • Nataly’s proven, science-backed five-week program to boost your emotional fitness
  • Bite-sized neuroscience lessons so that you can learn to be the boss of your brain
  • What awesome leaders do differently and why it matters
  • Ways to get rid of guilt around self-care for good
  • An “SOS” section to get you unstuck right now
  • Nataly’s wildly popular “Notes to Self”, with inspiration to support your progress
  • Awesome Human Awards!

There is an awesome human within every single one of us. The Awesome Human Project is the essential guidebook to help you embrace your awesome human and become the best version of yourself - with courage and compassion.

Critic Reviews

The Awesome Human Project abounds with simple, practical tools to build emotional fitness, learn to embrace ourselves (and our awesomeness) wholeheartedly, and to leave the ‘shoulds’ behind so we can joyously revel in the ‘coulds.’ Nataly is a one-woman dream team of empathetic friend, wise mentor, and ebullient cheerleader and she teaches us to acknowledge our struggle, while we also joyously celebrate our wins and delight in every step of growth on our journey.”  (Melissa Bernstein, cofounder and chief creative officer, Melissa & Doug)

The Awesome Human Project offers an inspiring blueprint sharing Nataly’s compelling personal journey and tactical ways to redirect your mind toward meaning, purpose, and fulfillment.” (Tiffany Shlain, Emmy-nominated filmmaker, founder of the Webby Awards, and best-selling author of 24/6: The Power of Unplugging One Day a Week

The Awesome Human Project is an inspiring and practical guide on how to feel more fulfilled and unlock even more of the awesomeness inside of us. The five-week challenge is like boot camp for emotional fitness. Just like practice in sports, The Awesome Human Project is hard work but rewarding. And Nataly is there like an awesome coach, dusting us off when we stumble, giving us encouragement and motivation, and supporting us on our next attempt.” (Jonathan Becher, president, San Jose Sharks)
