Standing in Possibility

Standing in Possibility: A Memoir of Resilience and Hope is a book about the author's secrets and their emotional impact on both her personal and working life. Janet Smith was a pioneer in many areas of her life, a woman who found herself in leadership roles, often as the first woman ever to be in those positions. At the same time, Smith's personal life first proceeded and then overlapped those milestones. Smith gave up two children for adoption and kept her love affairs hidden. Hers was a life of secrets, silos and isolation. Freedom came later in life for Smith, who brought the pieces together in this book. She hopes her memoir will be inspirational to both women and men who face similar challenges in their lives.
Standing in Possibility is way of living, looking forward, and overcoming adversity instead of looking backward and regretting the past.
