Nadya was nine years old when Lori and Karl Hetzel rescued her from an orphanage deep within Siberia. With little grasp of language and no experience of life outside the Russian adoption system, Nadya suffered from severe neglect and trauma, and was later diagnosed with reactive attachment disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Though Lori and Karl went into her adoption educated to the challenges they might face, Nadya’s cognitive delays were far more severe than they expected. The Hetzel family—including two biological sons and a daughter adopted from Kazakhstan—struggled for years through a lonely maze of rages, emergency hospitalizations, and terror before seeing any relief. In Loving Harder, Lori fearlessly tells the story of her darkest days in order to give hope to other struggling families, doing so with knowledge, grace, humor, and love. For those struggling to love harder, regardless of the cause, this book is the answer to a prayer.

Lori Darley has dedicated her life to embodying the fullest and most authentic expression of the human experience, both through her continuing commitment to the arts and through her current work as a leadership and high performance coach. Today, she shares her wisdom through her coaching practice, where she guides clients through a process called "The Clearing"—a personal development framework that allows participants to open channels for previously undiscovered insight and action. In Dancing Naked, Lori shows how she herself opened such channels despite—and even because of—seemingly insurmountable blocks in her own life and, as a result, arrived at the set of practices she works with today. From staring down the barrel of a rifle at Checkpoint Charlie to co-founding and leading a critically-acclaimed dance company to becoming a coach and leader in the conscious business movement, Lori honed techniques that take her straight to the heart of any opportunity. Building on her experience as an internationally recognized dancer and armed with her characteristic humor and wit, Lori uses Dancing Naked to guide leaders onto the road toward their most brilliant selves.
