Do Great Work
without sacrificing everything else
👋 Hi, I am Dr. Amanda Crowell
I’m a cognitive psychologist and the author of Great Work. I help people clarify what their Great Work is, strengthen how it moves through relationships, and build the audience it deserves.

Great Work Journey
“What happens when clarity meets consistency:
I read this book during a week I was feeling discouraged about how long it was taking to make progress on one of my big goals. The author does a great job of identifying many of the ways we hold ourselves back, and I love her model for how to break your vision into 90 day goals, a weekly task, and daily to dos. Lo and behold, before I had finished the book, one of my little actions had led to a big breakthrough!”
