Author Jocelyn Pepe was born and raised in Niagara-on-the-Lake, and she’s returning next week to promote her new book “Claim Your Brain” at the NOTL Public Library.

The book is a practical guide to mental health, based on a model she developed through her work coaching executives, teams and individuals.

“I wanted to share my research, education, and coaching experience with a broader audience. I wanted the model to be more accessible to more people,” she said.

Pepe draws on both her professional background and her own mental health journey, which she shares in the book.

“My journey felt like I was feeling my way in the dark, piece by piece, so the model I created is a whole person approach,” she said.

The book “bridges academia and the real world,” she added.

“It’s useful for everyone, whether you want to elevate your quality of life, or deal with anxiety and depression.”

“Claim Your Brain” was published by UpLevel, a company owned by Christie Mann. Mann and Pepe are longtime friends who grew up together in NOTL.

Pepe will be at the NOTL Public Library on Thursday, July 10, from 6 to 8 p.m.
