If we’re honest with ourselves, we all have something in our lives that we want to change. Unfortunately, very few embark on that transformational journey, and those who do struggle to “keep the change.” How do we make change stick?
As we step into the promising realms of 2024, I can't help but reflect on the incredible journey we've had so far.

Stick around as I unravel the essence of the 12 steps and share a chapter from the book that lays bare my journey from a troubled car salesman to a leader using these steps.
