About the Book

Discovering how you can find your passion, commit to action, and change the world! "When's the last time you were bothered?" When philanthropist Jamie Amelio poses this question, she's not talking about being bothered about traffic, spilled coffee, or work deadlines. She's talking about the BIG BOTHERS, like how you feel when you learn that every day 1,600 children die from diseases directly linked to unsafe water or a lack of basic sanitation facilities. Or the staggering statistics for suicidal children. What did you do with that feeling? In Staying Bothered, Amelio shows readers that every one of us is capable of affecting real, positive change in our communities and around the world if we just do ONE thing. Amelio describes what "being bothered" really means, a term she coined to explain the uncomfortable feeling we all get when we learn about a terrible wrong--maybe in our neighborhood, maybe across the world. But more importantly, Amelio emphasizes "staying bothered." Because while that initial feeling might motivate us to get involved, finding a way to make it last is the key to making a difference. Staying Bothered tells the story of how Jamie overcame seemingly insurmountable obstacles to positively change her world and the lives of thousands of children and in doing so sparked a movement! What bothers you? You'll be surprised at how this simple question can be a powerful motivator to Staying Bothered: Find Your Passion, Commit to Action, Change the World.

About the Author :
Jamie Amelio has been staying bothered her entire adult life. While living in Los Angeles, she served on the Board of Directors of Vistas for Children and founded Junior Vistas for Children. In Austin, she serves on two important Lake Travis School District committees that advocate for students' success. And in 2003, she launched Caring for Cambodia (CFC), which today supports 6,700 students each year in twenty-one schools in Siem Reap that have been named by the Cambodian government as the model schools for the entire country. She is a four-time recipient of the Cambodian government's prestigious Golden Hand Service Award. Most recently, Jamie founded Staying Bothered, a global movement to help people find what bothers them the most and to motivate them to get involved and stay committed. Jamie and her husband, Bill, lived in Asia for a decade and now make their home in Austin, Texas. They have six children, including two from Cambodia, and one grandson, all of whom understand the importance of "staying bothered" Adam Snyder has written, co-authored, and ghosted more than a dozen books with top CEOs and other leaders. He has also written many speeches and produced and written animated series and documentaries for his company, Rembrandt Films. Now that their two children are grown, he and his wife live and work a life untethered in places across the globe with high-speed internet, as explained further at livinglifeuntethered.com.

Review :
Jamie truly lives the idea that nothing is impossible. Staying Bothered is chock-full of stories and examples proving that challenges are opportunities, and that all ideas--both big and small--can change our world. --Mick Ebeling, Founder, Not Impossible I've seen how Jamie has translated "Staying Bothered" into changing lives. This is one woman's inspirational story, but also an instruction manual for all of us. --Christopher Graves, Founder & President Ogilvy Center for Behavioral Science; former Global CEO & Chair, Ogilvy PR.
