Nina Lesowitz is an award winning marketing professional who runs Spinergy Group, which represents authors, corporate clients, and nonprofits. She lives in Northern California with her husband and two daughters, and does volunteer work for local literary organizations and schools. Nina is the co author of 3 books, including the award winning Living Life as a Thank You, her first collaboration with Mary Beth Sammons.

Mary Beth Sammons, a 20 year veteran reporter, specializes in community journalism; her work has appeared in the Chicago Tribune and Crain’s Chicago Business. At the national level Sammons’ work regularly appears in AOL Health, Family Circle, and Beliefnet.com. She has written 10 booksabout wellness, health, ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and other lifestyle issues, including: Second Acts That Change Lives: Making a Difference in the World and We Carry Each Other: Getting Through Life’s Toughest Times. She lives with her three children and she still finds the time to train and compete in triathlons and half marathons.

If ever there was a time for courage, it’s now—from unemployment at all time highs, to economic stability at all time lows, to the effects of war, to natural disasters, to the stresses of everyday life—Americans are feeling more stressed out than ever. The Courage Companion: How to Live Life with True Power (Viva Editions, October 2010) by Nina Lesowitz and Mary Beth Sammons features over 30 remarkable demonstrations of courageous individuals, with a Foreword by Larry Cox, executive director of Amnesty International.

In The Courage Companion, the co?authors of the bestselling Living Life as a Thank You present stories of extraordinary courage that not only invite the reader to “tap into—and hold onto—our inner strength when times get tough and when we’re feeling all alone,” but also serve as guides to inspire anyone to just do it, whatever that “it” may be.

These intrepid authors have gone to the frontlines of adversity and fear to surface those brave hearts that have taken action, confronting and overcoming their trials and
trepidations in ways that encourage us all. From world?class athletes to spiritual teachers, and from cancer patients to ordinary people who, in extraordinary ways, have transformed their lives, these stories help lead us to our best lives. Enhanced with motivational quotes, expert advice, and exercises, this courage guidebook will help you turn apprehension into action to reap the many benefits of living your life with guts and gusto.

The Courage Companion features courageous people from all walks of life and across the globe, including:

• Romel Joseph, the blind Haitian violinist who survived the earthquake by playing
music in his mind and who returned to rebuild the music school he built with his
pregnant wife
• Peg Farrell, a 60?year?old former publisher for Family Circle, who traveled to Italy
alone, leaving behind family and friends to train as a novice chef with pros who did
not speak English
• Lucille Jackson, an African?American grandmother who is waging war against gangs
and extreme violence to provide hope for her grandson in Chicago's most
dangerous neighborhood
• B.J. Caldwell, the youngest person to circumnavigate the globe solo
• Eli Rosmarin, a man who survived the Nazi death camps as a teen
• And Lt. Commander, and mom, Heidi Kraft, the wounded healer who became a
guardian angel to physically and emotionally injured soldiers

Courage means different things in different circumstances—from having the courage to make a difference, right a wrong, to begin again, or just to face the next day—but, as Nina Lesowitz and Mary Beth Sammons show in The Courage Companion, facing up to adversity not only determines our destiny, but our identity.

The difference that separates those who took action in the face of their fears and those who stay frozen is that courageous people feel their fear, but take action anyway. Nina Lesowitz and Mary Beth Sammons have seen this manifest in their own lives, and in The Courage Companion, they assemble a team of people “brimming with bravery, and teeming with verve.”
