You already hold the key to your success

Buoyant: The Entrepreneur’s Guide to Becoming Wildly Successful, Creative, and Free is the entrepreneur’s mirror and companion on the voyage towards reclaiming your inspired creativity.

In this transformational book, Susie deVille shares the tools and exercises you need to crack open your creative reservoirs and sail confidently in the direction of your dreams.

Part memoir, part exercise-filled guide, Buoyant helps you shed the belief that being an entrepreneur means prioritizing productivity at all costs. Instead, Susie invites you to get lost on purpose and dig deep to become the person and entrepreneur you long to be.

Buoyant is The Artist’s Way for entrepreneurs. You don’t need to choose between being creative and being an entrepreneur. The truth is, you’re already both. The lessons laid out in Buoyant are the entrepreneur’s key to tapping into creativity, cultivating inspiration, and becoming your best, truest self.

It’s time to accept the grand adventure of being you.
