The books
Crystal Andrus Morissette (previously published as Crystal Andrus)
Crystal Andrus Morissette is an author whose books have been published by Hay House and by Penguin Random House's Harmony Books. Her work spans two decades and turns on one question: how a woman builds a life that is truly her own.
Where it began
In 2002, Crystal self-published the original Simply…Woman: a full-colour book at the centre of a complete program for women, created and produced independently.
She took the program to Canada's The Shopping Channel, which gave her her first purchase order. She then signed a three-book agreement with Hay House, and the first of those books, Simply...Woman!, followed in 2004.
Simply Woman! also appears, at number 14, on an Indigo “Readers’ Resolutions” list of forty titles.
An integrated approach to women's empowerment was already in place seven years before The S.W.A.T. Institute was founded in 2009.
The contents of the original program and the story of its first purchase order are Crystal's own account.
What the original program included
One work, not several: the discs, DVD, meditation and journal are parts of the program and are not counted as separate books.

One author, two names
Her earlier books were published under the name Crystal Andrus. Her later work is published under Crystal Andrus Morissette. They are the same author, and both names appear here exactly as each book was published.
How the work developed
She began calling her work Empowerment Coaching in 2003. Three books with Hay House followed, in 2004, 2006 and 2010, and in 2009 she founded The S.W.A.T. Institute. The Emotional Edge (2015) set out Emotional Age™, which now sits at the centre of the work taught there.
