Meet Brenda

Dr. Brenda Shoshanna is a bestselling, award-winning author, playwright, speaker and psychologist celebrated for her ability to blend Eastern wisdom with Western psychology.

Her acclaimed books include Zen and the Art of Falling in Love, published by Simon & Schuster, Zen Miracles: Finding Peace in an Insane World, published by Wiley, Fearless: Seven Steps to Peace of Mind, and The Anger Diet. Her work has been translated into 18 languages and received praise from Marianne Williamson, Lama Surya Das, Publishers Weekly and Tricycle.

Her latest book, The Diary of A Zen Mama (Who Turns Into A Jewish Mama), is a poignant memoir about love, loss, faith, family and spiritual awakening. Drawing upon Brenda’s lifelong practice of Zen and Judaism, the book explores how seemingly opposing traditions can come together to create greater peace, healing and understanding.

Even with her impressive track record, including bestselling books and a global audience, Brenda found herself at a crossroads when it came to promoting her latest work.

That’s what led Brenda to the Book Excellence Done For You PR Program.

Working with Book Excellence allowed her to put the time-consuming publicity process into the hands of a professional team while continuing to focus on the work and message she had spent decades developing.

Using Media Coverage to Expand Her Message

Through the Done For You PR Program, Book Excellence helped Brenda gain high-quality media coverage tailored to her brand and voice, including features in affiliates of ABC, NBC and CBS.

The campaign helped expand Brenda’s international visibility and introduce her work and message to new audiences, all without requiring her to manage the publicity process herself.

For Brenda, however, the value of the program extended beyond media exposure.

Having an accessible and responsive team behind her made the entire experience stand out.

For an established author whose time is best spent writing, teaching and inspiring others, Book Excellence provided something especially valuable: a trusted team capable of helping her message reach further while she continued doing the work only she could do.

Brenda’s Success

Brenda has built an extraordinary body of work around helping people experience greater peace, fulfillment and connection.

Her books have been published by major publishing houses, translated into 18 languages and recognized internationally, while more than 500 workshops and talks have allowed her to share her teachings directly with audiences.

Today, she continues that mission through The Diary of A Zen Mama (Who Turns Into A Jewish Mama).

Through the intersection of Zen and Judaism, Brenda encourages readers to move beyond division and judgment and discover the healing possibilities that emerge when we recognize what unites us.

The Done For You PR Program helped Brenda amplify this message through national media coverage, expand her visibility and connect her work with new audiences while giving her the freedom to remain focused on her writing and teaching.

Her experience demonstrates that professional publicity isn’t only valuable for authors trying to establish themselves. It can also help accomplished authors build upon years of credibility and bring an important new message to an even wider audience.
