  • Power Isn’t What You Think It Is. What if power isn’t about control, but about mutual recognition?

Bonus Potential: There's a Book for That

If you've ever thought, "Why didn’t anyone teach me this earlier?" Good news. I wrote the book I wish someone had handed me when potential felt exciting, but confusing.

Tales of Potential (The Cinderella Story You Didn’t Hear.)

This isn’t the Cinderella story you grew up with. It’s the one that helps you spot the difference between being chosen and choosing yourself.

Tales of Potential is a short, sharp reframing of a familiar fairytale, designed to help you see the hidden rules about power, visibility, and value we’ve all been quietly following. Whether you’re leading a team or navigating your next chapter, this book is a mirror, a challenge, and a momentum builder.

Want to be a Potentialist for me?

How to Introduce Me as a Potentialist → It gives you language, clarity, and just enough intrigue to help someone see the future version of themselves in what I do. That’s how potential spreads.

Thanks again for showing up. Now let’s see what happens when you keep going.

From your Potentialist, Joanna

The future doesn’t show up fully formed. It responds to how you invite it.
