Authentic

I love that Tim narrated-it gave an extra level of authenticity. This is a great read that everyone should be able to walk away from feeling inspired and motivated to make a positive change in their life.

Inspiring story

Great inspiring story ! Enjoyed the book and it has inspired me to get healthier, Highly recommend

Moving and Inspirational!

This book was sooo captivating that I listened every chance I could and had it done in under 48 hours! I absolutely appreciate the author himself reading it--as I think that makes audiobooks all the more powerful and overall enjoyable compared to a narrator.

From going over his hardships, how he got there, hurdles to getting out, and the final updates, the story was entirely relatable, authentic and motivational the entire time!

I've definitely read my fair share of "inspiring" books, but generally they are authors who have it all together and always have. Hearing about Tim's struggles and how he changed his mindset as time went on definitely helps me put my own "problems" into perspective. If he can come back from the rock bottom he was at, then I can change in my substantially more miniscule ways.

At times while listening, I was glad to have been alone in my car while tears rolled down my cheeks. This book definitely took me on a roller coaster of emotions, and I especially love the underlying love story beneath, even though that was not the focus.

I can't possibly recommend this book enough! No matter who you are, what you believe, or whatever stage of life you're at, there will be some major takeaway for everyone from Tim's story!

How is Tim still standing?

A well written book read by the author. I love it when authors read their books for audio versions.

I knew Tim had a miraculous story but Wow. Thank you so much Tim, for sharing your story. This will help so many people. The details he shared had to have been hard to put to paper and relive them!

Heather is quite the angel too.
