the Author
Dr. George James is a therapist, executive coach, speaker, and proud dad who believes in helping people show up fully: for themselves and the people they love.
He’s spent over 20 years walking alongside individuals, couples, families, and leaders as they navigate relationships, tough decisions, and the deeper work of personal growth.
George has had to give himself permission too—to take bold steps, to slow down, to build a life aligned with who he really is. He’s a lifelong Eagles and Phillies fan, a believer in honest conversation, and someone who’s still learning every day. I Give Myself Permission is both the heart of his work and the message he lives by.
