Editorial Reviews

NetGalley

Love this book for its comfortable conversation, the feeling of the author's presence. It is easy to read and plenty to learn. Simple stories with simple conclusions that drive you through the wisdom of the author aka coaching you through storytelling.

Amazon

This book is a heartwarming and uplifting read. The best part is how much the reader can identify with the life lessons, Mr. Pasternak has learned from his travels and encounters. And yes, these lessons are useful in business, but carryover to all of our shared experiences. The self effacing humor makes this little gem an easy read. Highly recommend.
