What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Belt of Chaos?
Why did I write this book? I’ve observed that many skilled grown-ups in the corporate world struggle to lead teams. It’s like they’re adventurers without a map, risking disaster with every move. This realization fueled my desire to give young minds a head start in leadership and bring a different kind of heroine into the spotlight. In the story, Sasha isn’t your typical audacious and outspoken protagonist. As an introvert, she navigates challenges with keen observations and resilience. Her quiet charisma and inner world draw readers in, challenging the notion that leadership only comes in loud forms. Sasha’s quiet toughness prevails, proving that a resilient leader can triumph over unpredictability.
