Based on extensive research studies, the science of the heart and mind connection, and captivating examples throughout history, Do It reveals the enemy that is holding you back―what Nurse calls your “action archetype.” These arechetypes include The Allodaxophobic, The Burned, The Blamer, The Perfectionist, and more.

  • A newfound awareness about what holds you back
  • Powerful, actionable tools to propel you forward
  • Stories of influential people who have overcome their own roadblocks to achieve extraordinary success
