This is the book for people who are tired of their own excuses—and the typical “just manifest it” advice. Especially if you’re at that age where you’re done pretending everything’s fine and ready to figure out what’s next.
What This Book Is (and Isn’t)
You don’t need another pep talk.
You need a permission slip.
Just Another Leap is a smart, unfiltered, no-fluff guide for high-achievers, overthinkers, and anyone who feels stuck even though they’ve “done the work.”
If your brain won’t shut up, burnout keeps hijacking your momentum, or you’re quietly wondering is this really it?—this book was written for you.
About Joyce Layman
Joyce Layman is a TEDx speaker, author, and mindset strategist who helps people navigate change when life doesn’t care about their plan.
She’s known for blending neuroscience, straight talk, and humor to help overthinkers get unstuck—without toxic positivity, hustle culture, or pretending mindset alone fixes everything.
Just Another Leap was written for the messy middle—the moments after burnout, breakdowns, or life’s unexpected curveballs—when clarity matters more than motivation.
Why Just Another Leap Exists
This book exists because trying harder isn’t the problem. Most people don’t need more discipline, journaling prompts, or inspirational quotes. They need to understand how their brain actually works—especially under stress, fear, and change.
Just Another Leap is about retraining your mind to work with you, not against you, so you can take action one decision at a time—even when confidence is shaky, and life feels loud.
No fluff or pretending. Just forward movement that sticks.
“Joyce doesn’t just inspire; she bridges the gap between motivation and meaningful action.”
“With sharp humor, grounded neuroscience, and stories that hit close to home, this book feels like a trusted friend telling you the hard truths with love.”
