Amazon #1 Bestseller!

Alex Bratty was a superstar in the public-opinion polling field. One of the youngest partners ever in a prestigious Washington research firm, her job was to listen to people and find out what they think and how they feel. She tuned into their emotional responses to get deeply in touch with
their “whys” in life.

The irony is that during the 15 years she was rising to the very top of her field, she wasn’t listening to her own inner voice to discover her true emotions, to pay attention to her deepest desires and to understand why she was so miserably stuck in her own life!

Through tremendous trial and error, she finally found her way. And now she’s giving other people the shortcut–through her remarkable book From Chaos to Clarity: Getting Unstuck & Creating a Life You Love–the essential quick-start guide to getting your life back on track.

Who amongst us hasn’t felt stuck at one time or another? Maybe you’re stuck right now! We all know that feeling of not knowing what to do next, or how to break out of the same old patterns of behavior, or listening to all that negative chatter that tells us we’re not enough. As Alex puts it, when this happens, we keep ourselves running in place, playing small and safe.

Help is on the way! Like having a personal coach encouraging you, urging you gently and specifically, From Chaos to Clarity, an Amazon.com #1 bestseller, gives you the tools to take back control of your life, to stop struggling and to focus on how to create a life you truly want, rather than one you think you should want.

Alex knows that empty feeling. She wasn’t fulfilling her life’s purpose and she felt trapped in a life that was like a hamster wheel she couldn’t get off. In her quest to find the missing piece, she embarked on a personal development journey that helped her uncover the true essence of what she wanted: to help people and to be of service in a way that would contribute positively to the world. In the book, Alex shares her own struggle with being stuck and how she moved from a life that felt unfulfilled, constricted, and frustrated to one that is expansive and filled with love, abundance, and joy.

From Chaos to Clarity provides a step-by-step guide for clearing the gunk from
your path and getting you moving with alacrity to the REAL life awaiting. Alex offers examples, charts to fill out and questions to ponder that lead you to the answers you may not have been able to discover on your own. Along the way, you will learn:
• To understand what’s really keeping you stuck (not always what it appears)
• To reprogram your mind to dash those limiting and long-held beliefs about yourself and others
• To connect with your true self and recognize you already have the answers to your burning questions
• To release the past once and for all
• To embrace the present and the future whilst being open to all possibilities
• To clear your mind so you can find space and time to create
• To identify what you really want, your calling, and your higher purpose
Alex’s From Chaos to Clarity puts you back in the driver’s seat of your life and reminds you that you can have a life you love! Each chapter provides the tools to get unstuck and to be a deliberate creator of your own life!

To book Alex Bratty for an empowering and dynamic interview that can get your listeners unstuck in their own lives, please send an email with the name of the show, your contact information, a proposed date and time, and the calling details.

“From Chaos to Clarity is a step-by-step, soup-to-nuts guide to reclaiming freedom, joy, love and abundance in any area of your life where you are not creating the results you desire. Learn the art of getting unstuck, and you will forever have a reliable formula for transforming any challenge and manifesting any outcome you want to create.”– Christy Whitman, NY Times Best-Selling Author

“A powerful book that charts a clear course from the darkness of being stuck to the bright light of clarity and opportunity. Read this book and transform your life!”- Tom Bird, Renowned Book Whisperer & Best-Selling Author
“A profound renewal of self! With passion and enthusiasm, Alex gives us a step-by-step guide to reprogramming our belief system. It’s Your Turn to leave burnout, depression, and exhaustion behind. You only have to read this book once to reach the richness and goodness that is within you. UNSTUCK is a personal transformation experience.” – Tom Puetz, author of Secret Choices

“An inspiring call to self-action and betterment, packaged in an easily digestible and approachable form. This book will help to prepare, challenge and guide the reader to receiving the amazing life that awaits those willing to receive it, by re-calibrating from an outward to an inward focus in the personal search for answers and direction.”-James “Mick” Andzulis, MBA, MSF, PhD, Assistant Professor, Louisiana State University

Special thanks to Isaiah for inspiring so many with your positive conviction for making the most out of  our lives.

Early years

Austin was born October 25, 1993 in Fresno, California to Ben and Lisa Green. His family later moved to Arlington, Texas where he grew up and attended Grace Preparatory Academy.

High school career

Austin attended Grace Preparatory Academy. As a senior, he averaged 15 points, 11 rebounds, and 5 blocks a game. This lead him to his second straight Fort Worth Star-Telegram Super Team Player of the Year. Austin participated in the 2012 McDonald’s All-American Game, 2012 Adidas Nations and the 2012 Jordan Brand Classic. In the McDonalds All-American Game, he recorded 10 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks and 2 assists to lead the West to victory. In the Jordan Brand Classic, he recorded 10 points, 8 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks to again lead the West to victory. He was named to the ESPNHS All-American Elite second team and was the nations no. 3 recruit according to ESPN.

College career

In his freshman season at Baylor, Austin was named to the 2013 All-Big 12 third team and the Big 12 All-Rookie team. On April 4, 2013, he recorded 15 points, nine rebounds, five blocks, four assists and two steals in the NIT championship game in which Baylor defeated Iowa 74–54. In 35 games (all starts), he averaged 13.0 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 1.7 blocks in 29.9 minutes per game.

In April 2013, he declared for the 2013 NBA draft, but later returned to Baylor due to a shoulder injury.

In his sophomore season, he was named to the 2014 Big 12 All-Defensive team. In 38 games, he averaged 11.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.4 assists and 3.1 blocks in 28.0 minutes per game.

On April 22, 2014, he declared for the 2014 NBA draft, forgoing his final two years of college eligibility.

On June 21, 2014, Austin learned that he had been diagnosed with Marfan syndrome, a genetic disorder that affects the body’s connective tissue. In an emotional interview with ESPN‘s Holly Rowe, Austin said that he could no longer play basketball at a competitive level since there was too much risk of his heart rupturing. In response, NBA commissioner Adam Silver invited Austin to attend the draft as his guest. Shortly after Austin’s diagnosis was made public, his agent revealed that Austin had taken out an insurance policy against career-ending disability through a special NCAA program. The amount of the policy was not disclosed, but the agent stated that it was at least $1 million. The policy would not have paid out if his career had ended due to the aforementioned shoulder injury or his eyesight, but is expected to pay out due to his Marfan diagnosis.

Personal

Austin is blind in his right eye from an injury he sustained in middle school. He had kept the injury a secret, known only to his teammates and close friends until January 17, 2014.
