One particular friend reached out to me and said, “I'm tryna change my mindset, but it’s hard for me to do that. How did you do it?” That caught me off-guard, which inspired me to write this book called KEYS to Elevating--three short, powerful chapters consisting of my personal experiences, methods, principals, and tactics I implemented to elevate." -Demond Hicks https://www.amazon.com/Keys-Elevate-Demond-Hicks-ebook/dp/B09G95SCLK ** About the Author:* Public figure https://www.instagram.com/iamdemond/# Father | Author | Entrepreneur Author of Keys To Elevate Podcast🎙 @overthatoppodcast Show @theputon_ Clothing @_thewinclothing 👇🏾 BUY MY BOOK 👇🏾 www.flowcode.com/page/demondhicks Show Notes: Books mentioned: Diary of a Lost Girl by Kola Boof A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle Daring Greatly by Brene Brown The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fu*k, Will Smith & Mark Manson The Art of Communication: Your Competitive Edge by Jim Stovall, Raymond H Hull, Ray H Hull Feast of All Saints by Anne Rice *Stranger than Fiction: * Relaxers potentially causing cancer in Black Women.
