The Power of Impact Circles - Paperback

by Alissa M. Quinn (Author)

Are you open to enhancing the quality of your life, whether you are on an educational path, navigating a professional or business career, raising children, thinking about your next chapter, or in retirement? Thriving networker Alissa Quinn can show you how. She shares how connecting closely with like-minded, motivated, and inspiring individuals can meaningfully impact your life with benefits beyond measure!

When Alissa began her career in the financial services industry in the late 1980s, there were few women advisors in wealth management. Driven to succeed, she felt compelled to find a way to create a supportive business network around herself. What she didn't know was how the impact circles she created would transform her life, personally and professionally, in addition to the lives of their members.

Creating impact circles allowed Alissa the opportunity to connect wise and compassionate individuals willing to help one another, whether with business opportunities or navigating a variety of life's storms: health challenges, grief or loss, career changes, personal relationships, life transitions, and more. Being part of a supportive network of businesswomen who went from "suits to souls" allowed Alissa the privilege of bearing witness to the power and synergy of collective wisdom in action, fueling her soul for over three decades.

What Alissa had not imagined was how her impact circles would help save her own life. She leaned into her circles as she navigated a shocking cancer diagnosis at age fifty, when having the right connections and medical resources for her very complex case connected her to top oncologists, surgeons, tumor boards, and national specialists, allowing for the best possible outcome: being alive to share her story. Determined to be there for her two young adult children, Alissa saw firsthand how the willingness to be vulnerable strengthened her personal and professional relationships immeasurably.

Alissa leaned on her impact circles a second time during the hardest storm of all: an unanticipated life transition at age sixty after being married to her high school sweetheart for over thirty-three years-a heartbreak worse than cancer. Alissa authentically shared her fears and tears with trusted members of her impact circles and loving family. Both were there with unwavering and fierce support in her darkest days, showing her that freedom lay ahead and enriching her life infinitely by pointing out all the possibilities for her next chapter.
