About Carter James Publishing

At Carter James Publishing, we believe books have the power to do more than educate. They have the power to change the way we see ourselves, the people around us, and the work we’re called to do.

Founded by husband-and-wife team Bo and Jordan Bowen, Carter James Publishing was created with one purpose: to publish meaningful books that leave people better after reading.

Together, we believe the best ideas deserve to be shared with excellence, authenticity, and heart. Combining Jordan’s passion for writing, education, and human connection with Bo’s business expertise and unwavering support, we’re building a publishing company rooted in purpose and designed to grow for generations to come.

The name Carter James is deeply personal. Inspired by our children and family, it represents the legacy we hope to leave, one built not only through the books we publish, but through the lives they impact.

Our books explore the human side of leadership, wellness, personal growth, business, and the professions that shape our communities. We value thoughtful storytelling, practical wisdom, and evidence-based insights that inspire meaningful change.

Every project we create is guided by a simple belief: people matter.

Because the best books don’t simply inform us.

They become part of the legacy we leave.
