New 30-Day Empowerment Book Encourages Readers to Choose Themselves With Intention

By Design, Not By Default offers daily motivation for readers ready to shift from survival mode to purposeful living.

Harper Woods, MI – April 8, 2026 - In a time when many people are seeking clarity, confidence, and emotional renewal, author Chnell Guydon introduces By Design, Not By Default: 30 Days To Shape Your Mind At Your Own Pace, a new empowerment book designed to help readers strengthen their mindset and reclaim their personal power.

Written as a 30-day inspirational experience, the book speaks directly to individuals who have struggled with self-doubt, emotional exhaustion, misplaced priorities, or the burden of living according to the expectations of others. With direct, affirming language and reflective prompts, Guydon offers daily encouragement for readers who are ready to reset and refocus.

The book’s central theme is simple yet transformative: becoming your best self requires intention. Through messages centered on self-worth, discipline, courage, healing, forgiveness, and purpose, By Design, Not By Default helps readers build a healthier internal dialogue and create momentum in their lives.

“This is for the person who forgot about themselves while carrying everyone else,” Guydon said. “I wanted to create something that reminds people they are valuable, worthy, capable, and allowed to grow at their own pace.”

Each entry is crafted to inspire action and reflection, making the book suitable for daily reading, journaling, group discussion, women’s empowerment circles, coaching communities, and faith-based or personal development spaces.

Among its strongest messages are reminders that peace is non-negotiable, confidence is built from alignment, and no one needs permission to become who they were created to be. Rather than promoting perfection, Guydon encourages readers to honor progress, forgive themselves, and live deliberately.

By Design, Not By Default is positioned as both a motivational companion and a personal development resource for readers seeking encouragement that feels grounded, relatable, and affirming.

The book is now available at [Amazon/author website/bookstore link].
