Non-Fiction Books by Lori
"They say you must write what you know—and I’ve come to believe you must also write what you’ve lived, what you’ve felt deeply, and what continues to stir something within you. Head Over Heart was born from over 35 years of working with people from all walks of life, observing not just what they do, but why they do it. It’s a reflection of what I’ve learned through experience, not theory.
This book comes straight from the heart, written with the hope that it helps others better understand themselves and those around them. Emotional Intelligence isn’t just a skill—it’s a journey. One that begins when we pause, pay attention, and choose to grow. I’ve written this with passion, honesty, and a deep belief that what connects us all is far more powerful than what divides us."
