SAN FRANCISCO, December 31, 2023 — Author and coach Lucy Chen is honored to announce that her first book, “Build Resilience: Live, Learn, and Lead” received the International Impact Book Award for Author for Spirituality in December 2023.
She attended the Grand Book Awards Gala in Phoenix, Arizona, on March 30, 2024 to celebrate the award with other International Impact Book Award winners. This annual gala honors the winning authors and their publishers.
“This gala isn't just about celebrating an individual achievement; it's an opportunity to connect with fellow authors who share my passion and dedication,” Chen said. “This achievement wouldn't have been possible without the incredible support of friends and family.”
“Build Resilience” was released on November 2, 2023. Offering a captivating narrative spanning three generations, two countries, and over eight decades, "Build Resilience" shares the author's remarkable experiences interwoven with down-to-earth principles for conquering life's obstacles. At the heart of this inspiring journey are seven down-to-earth principles that serve as the foundation of resilience. These principles are not just abstract concepts; they are practical tools, forged in the crucible of real-life experiences. "Build Resilience" is a compass for navigating life's ups and downs, providing valuable insights and lessons to help individuals tackle challenges effectively.
The International Impact Book Awards is a prestigious platform that began in 2019 to celebrate stories that have an impact, “that resonate with excellence.” They welcome submissions from self-published authors like Lucy Chen, traditional publishing houses, and others in the form of both print and e-book formats.
