Biography

Ireland writes and teaches in two areas: how to live with peace and success instead of struggle, and how to communicate easily and effectively in the workplace. Her most recent book is The Job Survival Instruction Book: 400+ Tips, Trips, and Techniques to Stay Employed.

Ireland draws on a personal breast cancer experience as an exemplar of the power of self-help. The experience, in which she rejected further recommended surgery after a lumpectomy, resulted in a 2004 memoir.

Ireland teaches communication training in business organizations.

Ireland resides in the San Francisco East Bay area of Fremont, California.
