I dedicated my book to my parents, Ed and Gloria Gooler. They raised me to believe that careers are intended to be fulfilling pursuits in life, and they set a great example by working in ways that they found meaningful and satisfying.

"Thinking of beginning or switching a career? Work From the Inside Out by Tammy Gooler Loeb is a collection of gems that will empower any reader to address the maze of options-and obstacles-that can crop up in their professional journey. It makes sense that the opening chapter is a review of fear, a common roadblock to many endeavors. Gooler Loeb thoughtfully suggests how to effectively turn fear into an advantage and skillfully outlines how one can benefit from moving self-reflection into action. Smartly written chapters stress the importance of adaptability as the mother of all abilities, putting aside the belief that it's ‘too late’ to make major career changes and stepping outside of one's comfort zone rather than defaulting to what's comfortable. Self-assessment questions and an intelligent, creative collection of activities append each chapter. Anecdotes and well-chosen scenarios laced with humor make this book an engaging work. Readers will find that the personal and professional effects of Gooler Loeb's guide will last well beyond the final page."
