 San Diego Author and Compassion Advocate Amy Quesenberry Celebrates Launch of Amazon Best Selling Book at AleSmith BrewingCommunity book signing event invites San Diegans to explore how compassion can create meaningful change in themselves, their relationships, workplaces, and communities
That question is at the heart of It Starts With Compassion: Meaningful Change Begins Within, the Amazon Best Selling book by San Diego author, speaker, executive and organizational development coach, and Founder of Start With Compassion®, Amy Quesenberry. On Tuesday, August 4, 2026, from 5:00–8:00 PM, Quesenberry will celebrate the official launch of the printed book and companion workbook with a community book signing celebration at AleSmith Brewing Company in San Diego. The event brings together readers, business leaders, community members, friends, and supporters to celebrate a message that extends far beyond the pages of a book — compassion as a catalyst for personal growth, stronger relationships, healthier workplaces, and a more connected world. "My hope is that this book reminds people that meaningful change does not require a title, position, or perfect circumstances," Quesenberry created the Start With Compassion® framework after decades of experience helping people and organizations navigate change, strengthen connection, and build cultures where people feel valued. Her work combines more than 25 years of leadership experience with a deeply held belief that compassion is not a weakness — it is one of the most powerful drivers of transformation. Beyond her work with organizations, Quesenberry actively serves the San Diego community through The Start With Compassion® Project, delivering care packages and meaningful moments of connection to individuals experiencing homelessness. She also serves on the Board of Directors for Anvil of Hope, a local nonprofit focused on breaking the cycle of poverty and creating opportunities for at-risk youth in San Diego. The August 4 celebration will include book signing opportunities, community connection, and the opportunity to learn more about the movement behind Start With Compassion®.
