YOUR NEXT STRATEGIC MOVE STARTS HERE.
Resources to help you put The Strategic Business Partner into practice.
A note from Annie...
Hey, friend! I’m so glad you’re here.
I hope this book has challenged you to think bigger about your role, and what’s possible for you. These resources will help you take that work deeper, whether you’re creating stronger alignment with your executive, getting intentional about boundaries, or building trust in yourself.
Start with whatever speaks to where you are right now. You don’t need to tackle everything at once. One intentional shift can change how you show up.

Guided Meditation: Make Space for What You Feel
Companion to Chapter 1: An Introduction to Thought Work and Chapter 14: Developing Self-Trust
If your first instinct when a challenging emotion shows up is to get busy, push through, or talk yourself out of it, this is for you.
This short guided audio invites you to slow down, notice what you’re feeling, and get curious about the sensations in your body. Give yourself a few minutes to practice being with yourself through discomfort.
You don’t have to feel confident every moment to have your own back.

Make room for the conversation that helps all your other conversations become more effective.
