Love From Our Clients
This book brings ancient wisdom into the modern workplace in a way that’s both deeply relevant and refreshingly real. The Stoic principles are woven through in a way that felt relatable and practical, and the reflection questions sparked some powerful insights for me.
I picked this book up feeling a bit worn down by the demands of leadership. What I found was a steadying force – a reminder that you don’t need to have all the answers, just the right mindset to guide your actions in the moment. This will be a book I keep close.
This book helped me slow down, tune into what really matters, and lead with greater clarity. It doesn’t just share ideas – it gives you practical ways to stay grounded, especially when the pressure’s on. I will be sharing this book with my team.
Anchored and Intentional landed in my hands at exactly the right time. It shifted my mindset in the space of a few days – from uncertainty to clarity, and from overwhelm to a deeper sense of steadiness. The mix of personal stories, practical wisdom, and powerful questions encouraged me to pause, reflect, and lead with greater intention. I know I’ll return to it often.
Hats off to you – this book is really well done. I love how you’ve structured it into two clear parts that mirror the title, bringing both a grounded mindset and intentional action to life. The blend of theory and practice makes it incredibly useful, and the weekly reflections are a thoughtful addition. It’s the kind of book I’ll keep returning to – whether I need a moment of perspective, a practical tool, or just a reminder to lead with intention.

In Anchored and Intentional, Sheila Wherry draws on timeless Stoic wisdom, real coaching stories from her daily work with senior leaders, and lived experience to offer grounded tools for navigating the messy, human side of leadership – supporting you to stay composed when pressure builds, and deliberate when the easy path calls.
This book is a steady companion – one you’ll find yourself returning to time and again – through everyday demands and defining moments alike. It offers reflection prompts, practical tools, and fresh perspective to help you lead in a way that’s clear, considered, and anchored in what matters most.
Leadership isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about how you think, respond, and act – especially when the path ahead is unclear.
That’s the heart of anchored and intentional leadership.
