Literary Titan is proud to announce that Elaina Kelly Smith’s acclaimed #1 Best Seller, Changing Course Gracefully: A Strategic Guide to Building Foundational Self-Trust, has been honored with the Literary Titan Gold Book Award. This recognition celebrates the book’s methodical approach to helping readers navigate change, overwhelm, and a life on autopilot.

In Changing Course Gracefully, Smith invites readers to confront a pattern she calls “Remote Control Living,” where daily life is guided by a relentless chorus of “shoulds” rather than an internal signal. Utilizing her signature PARQS Framework—Preferences, Awareness, Right Action, Questions, and Self-Acceptance—Smith offers a practical, “brick-by-brick” approach to rebuilding foundational self-trust.

Kirkus Reviews has praised the work, noting that “Smith is a first-rate teacher—calm, methodical, and warmly encouraging”. Drawing from decades of travel across all seven continents, Smith presents a strategic guide designed to support readers through emotional waves and moments of self-discovery.

Literary Titan lauded the book as a “guided travel companion built around the PARQS Framework,” emphasizing Smith’s warm and steady voice as she models the framework through real-world experiences across Cambodia, India, Russia, and beyond.

Changing Course Gracefully is available now on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. For those ready to stop navigating blind and start building self-trust one step at a time, pick up your compass today.
