Delve into the minds of America’s Founders with Jeffrey Rosen’s latest book, THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS! In his recent interview with Jesse Watters on Fox News, Jeffrey discussed how figures like Benjamin Franklin and George Washington viewed happiness as a lifelong quest for virtue, not short-term pleasure. Drawing from the writings of classical philosophers, the founding fathers advocated for methods like rising early, exercise, and time management to achieve self-mastery, all habits that can still improve our lifestyles today, 300 years later! Reach out to us to bring Jeffrey Rosen’s expertise to your next event! https://bit.ly/3UB1aFk #SimonSpeakers #JeffreyRosen #ThePursuitofHapiness #FoundersVision #ConstitutionalScholar

A couple of weeks ago I had the privilege of attending the Inaugural Women’s Leadership Breakfast of Big Brothers Big Sisters of NYC where "USA Today" bestselling author Chelsey Goodan was in conversation with Kate Snow of NBC News! Chelsey is a powerhouse author and a remarkable speaker (and someone I’m lucky enough to work with and represent here at the Simon & Schuster Speakers Bureau.) Her book "Underestimated: The Wisdom and Power of Teenage Girls" is a fresh, unexpected, and empowering guide to better understand teenage girls, and how their insights can create heartfelt connections and impactful change. Chelsey speaks regularly to audiences about gender justice, conducts workshops, and teaches communication strategies that make everyone feel seen, heard, understood, valued, and celebrated--making her the perfect speaker for an event like this. I’m so lucky to have been able to attend in-person, and see the great work BBBS is doing! ✨ 📖 #events #authors #nyc #books #publishing #bbbs #bbbsnyc
