About Lauren

 Praise for The Trouble with Thinking

“Impeccably researched and masterfully written, a wholly practical manual for reversing negative thinking.”

--Kirkus Discoveries Review

“A wonderfully entertaining and important look at the way our mind works and could work. Powers takes us on a fantastic journey through our thought processes and reactions and draws a map for us to find a better route. I would recommend this book to anyone who has a mind.”

--Henry Kimsey-House, Author of Co-Active Coaching: New Skills for Coaching People Toward Success In Work and Life.

“Powers takes a difficult topic – the human process of creating meaning – and brings clarity through humor, unforgettable metaphors, scientific inquiry and personal examples.  Understanding and mastering the “Rat Brain Loop” is fundamental to being an evolved and successful person.”

--Martha Miser, Head of Leadership and Change, ING Group

“This is an important book. Finally a communication expert who explains the deep reason that we don’t understand each other. And what a delight to read—my engineering students love it. This book has a permanent place on my syllabus.”

--Randi Voss Ph.D., Department of Biomedical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin

“This book is a very good read; it gave me the ability to think about why I think a certain way. Confused? Read this book and it will all become clear to you too.”

--Augusto L. Vidaurreta, Author of Business Is a Contact Sport

“Lauren Powers has tackled a tough but enormously important topic—the power of our unconscious fears and negative assumptions to lead us astray.  Loaded with fascinating stories and written with grace and flair, this is a book worth reading.”

--Judith Sherven and James Sniechowski , Authors of Be Loved for Who You Really Are

 “The Trouble with Thinking will have you laughing your way to sanity.  Powers is brilliantly clear as she outlines the problems that our thinking creates.”

--Melanie Dewberry-Jones , Author of What was God Thinking?
