Do you feel like a passenger in your own life?

On paper, everything looks fine. You are responsible, capable, and reliable. But inside, there is a quiet, persistent hum of disconnection. You are living on "autopilot," guided by a relentless chorus of "shoulds" rather than your own inner voice.

In Changing Course Gracefully, Elaina Kelly Smith introduces the PARQS Framework—a practical, brick-by-brick system to help you disconnect from "Remote Control Living" and rebuild your foundation of self-trust.

This is not just a book of theory; it is a hands-on field guide. You will learn how to:

Preferences: Reconnect with what you actually want.

Awareness: Use your body’s signals to stop navigating blind.

Right Action: Take small, integrity-aligned steps (even when you're scared).

Questions: Silence the Inner Critic with compassionate inquiry.

Self-Acceptance: Practice radical loyalty to yourself.

Whether you are navigating a career change, setting boundaries with family, or battling imposter syndrome, this book gives you the compass to find your way home to yourself.
