<p>Discover a new creative framework to help you transform your biggest ideas from imagination to reality, fusing the practicality of engineering design methodology with the magic of alchemy. Spiral is an epic weaving of threads from engineering, design thinking, spirituality, business, and physics that will empower you as both a business builder and as a human. Rather than a step-by-step process for success that can feel like fighting the tide, this book acts as a guide to building your business on your own terms, in harmony with your own natural rhythms. Based on her personal experience as a spacecraft systems architect, a serial entrepreneur, and a business strategy coach, Amy Simpkins offers simple-yet-powerful tools to approach the creative process as a whole person. Whether you are creating disruptively innovative solutions, a world-changing business, or a life that lights you up, Spiral helps you integrate all of the random, varied parts of yourself so that you are free to shine your brightest. Praise for Spiral “Amy knows her stuff, because she has done it, after doing well in the very demanding environment at MIT and then the space program. She is one of only a few serial tech entrepreneurs who have the ability to synthesize their sustained and varied experiences—left brain and right brain—and present the learnings in ways that others can benefit from as they think about building their own new business. Entrepreneurship and starting new businesses is not for everyone. Reading Amy’s book will help you to decide if you are ready to take the grueling journey.” -Ken Morse, Serial Entrepreneur, Tech Angel Investor, Founding Managing Director, MIT Entrepreneurship Center “Amy Simpkins is the Patti Smith of innovation. Like a punk rocker, it’s all about the creation and not about the labels people routinely accept. Spiral is truly new thinking about innovation. I'm intrigued by the approach and will be integrating it into my own tool chest. This is a fresh, direct, personal, insightful, empowering, de-mythologizing, and well-written book about innovation. It's new, different, and useful; in other words, innovative. I highly recommend it.” -Gregg Fraley, Author, CEO, and Innovation Consultant “This book is a treasure trove abound with perspective shifts, tools, and frameworks that will help you realize that the creative journey matters more than the destination, and that you need not expect to travel that journey is a straight line. In fact, all the best learning, goodness, and revelation happens in the spiral." -Julie Neale, Founder, Coach and Community Builder at Mother's Quest “In Spiral, Amy Simpkins helps us understand the naturally occurring ebb and flow, whether in our personal or business development, so we not only embrace but engage with these cycles. Spiral teaches us to use the slower, less productive times to recharge so that we move forward during the creative periods and faster in times of growth." -Tamara DaSantos, former Finance Manager, Bell Helicopter “Amy Simpkins shows you how to write your own love letter; think about the impossible! Rethink how you see yourself. Learn how to stop the little voice in your head talking you out of your dreams. Spiral will guide you to weave your own path to success.” -Christine Daspro, Founder and CEO, Curating Connections “This book is for anyone who has a dream, life, or vision they fear might be too big or radical. I appreciate Amy’s holistic approach: building on all of our strengths and perceived weaknesses. I resonate strongly with her ideas and revolutionary observations.” -Crystal Dyste, Author and Indie Publisher, Dyste Writing and Publishing “I clearly saw what has impeded me in the past—fighting the rhythms, trapped in “this or that” thinking. This new wisdom is now spiraling in my head to support me in utilizing the gifts and wisdom available to me in each present moment and embracing wherever I am.” -Shauna Karine, Soul Doula</p>
