From the Second Half to the Atlanta Book Festival: A New Chapter Begins

I am incredibly honored to share that I have been invited as a Featured Author at this year’s Atlanta Book Festival.

My debut book, “The Second Half: Stories of Soccer, Courage and Soulful Comebacks,” was born out of a desire to look past the superficial metrics of success.

It is a collection of raw narratives my own career ups and downs that’ll help people navigating mid-career pivots, structural burnout or other deep personal changes.

But writing a book is only the first phase.

The magic really happens when those stories move off the printed page and turn into actual, human conversations.

That is exactly what we are going to do at the festival.

I will be hanging out to chat about career pivots, reinventions and how to successfully navigate your own second half.

And yes, I am fully prepared to defend my soccer hot takes, talk about the existential dread we all secretly share.

Whether you want to grab a copy of the book, talk strategy, or simply share your own professional journey, do stop by my table and say hello.
