Have you ever
If so, you’re not alone.
This is what it’s like when you are “out of your power.”
Being out of your power is not a sign of inherent weakness; it means you care about getting good results, about fairness and respect, and about making things better for the greater good.
I’ve seen countless people like you get pulled out of their power at work, at home, or in their community. And being out of your power is the fastest path to burnout. It destroys career dreams and kills joy.
But you have MUCH more power than you think.
To be free of situations that are out of your control so you can get back to your calm confident self and refocus on making a difference for others in your company, community, or family...
You want to be back “in your power.”
When you’re in your power, the course of your life isn’t happening to you, it’s happening from you, through you, and for you.
Your internal state no longer goes up and down according to other people’s behavior as if you’re a thermometer. In your power, you're the thermostat. You set the tone of your interactions with others, you decide who you will be, and you bring people along in your vision, stewarding the whole situation to make it better.
It’s time to access the tools you need to feel like the creator, not the casualty, of your life.
It’s time to step into your power and use it for the good of all.
In your power, you make an impact not by reacting to the behavior of people who are limited, but rather by raising yourself and others to be limitless.
Introducing
In Your Power
Hi, I'm Dr. Sharon Melnick
Informed by my 10 years of psychology research at Harvard Medical School and 20 years coaching and training over 40,000 senior leaders and entrepreneurs, I have science-backed techniques to help you get back into your power.
When we feel stuck in a challenging situation, all too often our well-meaning friends and family will tell us to “let it go,” “just leave,” or “be persistent!” In Your Power pushes far beyond this surface-level advice and offers a practical response repertoire for you to use to transcend difficult situations.
By reading In Your Power, you’ll discover how to…
These ideas have already helped dozens of thousands people overcome their reactive state and reclaim their power. They’ve used these strategies to achieve bigger business results, received promotions, improved the culture, and reconnected with difficult loved ones.
And just like them, when YOU are in your power, you’ll raise everyone around you!
The first step to getting back in your power – and staying there no matter what – is at your fingertips.

“Every one of us has moments where we’re not our best. We freeze up when we should talk. We snap when we should reflect. We hide when we should be bold.

In In Your Power, Sharon sits right beside us, accompanying us, whispering in our ear about how to reflect on those moments, and prepare for the next many moments with fresh eyes, new responses, and a whole heart.
