Before you can win - whether it’s a sweepstakes or in life - you must believe you are a winner.

These mindset and metaphysical books include all of Helene Hadsell’s works, and soon to be released are all of Tag & Judith Powell’s books and audio series. In fact, Carolyn has committed to publishing one book each month in 2024.

Carolyn came to prominence as The Contest Queen, teaching others how to find, organize, enter, and win sweepstakes, contests, and giveaways. Her proven online entry system, outlined in How To Win Cash, Cars, Trips & More!, has helped others win millions in cash and prizes.
