What's On Your Sign? is unique among activism books.
I don't tell you to head to the streets. Instead, I help you recognize what you bring to the table that will positively impact your cause.
Other books direct you to the author's cause. I help you focus on your passion. Find your purpose and master your path.
My goal is to inspire you to consider something more than marches. Today's activists use art, music, public speaking, writing, teaching, and the power of the pen to change the world. You can, too. Make a difference doing something you love.
This is an activism book for teens and adults who want to make an impact.
I was in your shoes once. I was spread thin and overwhelmed. Worse, I wasn't sure I was making a difference.
Feeling discouraged, I looked for activism and impact books but couldn't find what I needed. Instead, I took a deep dive into the research. I pulled together well-tested results and techniques into my Activism Path. Rather than trying to solve multiple issues, focusing my passion and finding the cause closest to my heart made all the difference. When I matched my skills with an activism method that motivates me, I began to make a difference.
You can change the world, too.

"I learned so much from Terri Lyon's book What's on Your Sign? I am not a sign-toting, march-going activist but through her book I found ways to bring change in the places that matter to me in a way that works for my personality. I felt inspired and encouraged due to her step-by-step layout from finding my passion to making a difference. This is more than a go-get-em type of book. It has practical steps and ideas that bring you through the process if you are a beginner activist or someone who needs an infusion of centered focus." ~Dr. Catherine Denton, author of Metaphysical Girl: How I Recovered My Mental Health
