About The Book

“Kristen Glosserman’s If It’s Not Right, Go Left is an upbeat and approachable lifestyle guide that’s structured around eleven transformative lessons….Her presence fills the pages of the book.”

Foreword Reviews

Everyone gets stuck sometimes. Whether it’s a personal loss, an aimless career, or a difficult breakup, many people find themselves unsure where to take their next steps. Kristen Glosserman—goal-setting strategist, life coach, and mother of four—offers wise guidance and direction, using examples culled from her own inspiring life.

In light of her own family tragedy and personal struggles, Kristen formulated a plan to regain sight of her goals, now made accessible to readers. She heads each section of If It’s Not Right, Go Left with a life lesson, including:
  • Begin. Focus. Commit.
  • Traditions: Honor Them, Create Them, Keep Them
  • If It’s Not Right, Go Left
  • Live Directionally

Each chapter builds on the idea that life will happen no matter what, and it’s up to us to respond accordingly. Readers will be drawn to gorgeous illustrations alongside a wealth of constructive lessons in order to accomplish the lifestyle changes they need.

If It’s Not Right, Go Left teaches that connection, communication, and collaboration bring change, and it takes only the actionable guidance offered by Kristen to pivot towards one’s achievable goals.

PRAISE FOR IF IT’S NOT RIGHT, GO LEFT:

"Kristen is a steady, patient reminder of doing what you can, celebrating the good stuff, and not beating yourself up about what you didn't do. There's always tomorrow."

Rina Stone, Creative Director of InStyle

Kristen is the one you go to when you need advice, when you need someone to remind you that no matter what the challenges may be, there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel.

If It’s Not Right, Go Left is a wonderfully natural direction for Kristen—a chance to share her guidance and wisdom with all.”

Gucci Westman, founder of Westman Atelier
