Award-Winning LIVE IT! Celebrates Collaborative Success as Creator Jodi Hope Grinwald Announces Next

BARNEGAT, N.J. - EntSun -- What began as a mission to connect people through authentic stories has grown into an award-winning collaborative book and an expanding movement of changemakers.

Today is the Day. LIVE IT! – Edge of Comfort to Center of Impact, created and curated by Jodi Hope Grinwald, has been recognized as Top Collaborative Book through Top Talent. The recognition celebrates the collective voices behind a book that encourages readers to move beyond fear, embrace possibility and create meaningful impact. Now, Grinwald is building on that momentum with Today is the Day. OWN IT!, the second installment in the planned trilogy, scheduled for release in Spring 2027.

Published in January 2026, LIVE IT! brings together 31 changemakers, including leaders, entrepreneurs, creatives and nonprofit professionals, who share personal experiences of stepping outside their comfort zones and discovering what becomes possible when purpose meets action.

The transition from LIVE IT! to OWN IT! is a natural one. LIVE IT! is about that defining decision that takes you outside your comfort zone and puts you on a path toward creating meaningful impact, personally and professionally. OWN IT! explores what happens next, how you stay the course when things get hard, fear begins to seep in, judgment causes you to second-guess yourself, or obstacles threaten to veer you off course.

If LIVE IT! is about having the courage to take the first step, OWN IT! is about having the conviction to keep going. "Receiving this recognition is especially meaningful because LIVE IT! was built on the power of collaboration," said Grinwald. "Every author brought a unique voice, perspective and experience to this project. Together, we created something that reaches far beyond any one individual. OWN IT! will continue that journey and explore what it takes to stay committed to the path you have chosen."

The original book also reflects the power of creative partnerships. Design 446 served as a creative partner for LIVE IT!, contributing the book's cover design, interior graphics and marketing support for its contributing authors. Design 446 President, Ann Marie Baker is also among the book's contributing authors. "Being part of LIVE IT! as both an author and creative partner has been an incredibly meaningful experience," said Baker. "Seeing these stories come together, and now receive this recognition, reinforces why collaboration is so powerful. We are excited to continue supporting Jodi and the next chapter with OWN IT!"

As OWN IT! moves toward its anticipated Spring 2027 release, additional information about contributing authors, the book launch and upcoming opportunities to connect with the Today is the Day community will be announced.
