Brave Healer Productions and S.I.M.P.L.E. Systems Seek 25 Experts for Transformational Women's Anthology
Healers, coaches, and practitioners are invited to contribute to Abundance Capacity: The Healing You Need to Receive with the S.I.M.P.L.E. System – a 25-expert collaborative book curated by Diane Lauer, Founder & CEO of S.I.M.P.L.E. Systems for Thriving.
Nationwide – Brave Healer Productions and S.I.M.P.L.E. Systems for Thriving have announced an open call for 25 expert contributing authors to join a landmark collaborative anthology: Abundance Capacity: The Healing You Need to Receive with the S.I.M.P.L.E. System, curated by lead author and project founder Diane Lauer. Healers, coaches, therapists, and practitioners whose work supports women in moving from depletion to sustainable abundance are encouraged to apply.
This expert collaboration, produced in partnership with 17-time award-winning publisher Laura Di Franco of Brave Healer Productions, offers qualified contributors the opportunity to share their story and expertise alongside 24 fellow practitioners in a professionally edited, traditionally formatted anthology reaching women across the country.
“This book exists because there are women right now who are exhausted from over-giving and ready for something to change. I want 25 experts who have lived that change and can show others how to walk through it.” – Diane Lauer, Lead Author & Curating Editor
About the project
Abundance Capacity is a 25-chapter anthology structured as a six-section emotional and somatic arc, guiding readers from burnout and chronic overgiving through inner recalibration to sustainable, grounded abundance. Each chapter is a standalone teaching story anchored to one element of Lauer’s proprietary S.I.M.P.L.E. System:
S – Simplify: Reduce what feels heavy
I – Intentional Pause: Pause before reacting
M – Mindful Capacity: Protect your energy
P – Purposeful Action: Take your next aligned step
L – Life Integration: Support your whole self
E – Energetic Sustainability: Stay resourced long-term
The book’s primary audience is mission-driven women leaders, midlife women in transition, and women navigating burnout, overgiving patterns, or chronic depletion. It will be published in e-book, paperback, and Audible formats, with a tentative publication date of October 15, 2026.
