Publisher's Summary

We all fail. We all fall. We all need to know how to get back up. Few know this better than New York Times best-selling author Neil Pasricha. Before selling over a million copies of his Book of Awesome series and touring the world to teach Fortune 500 CEOs, Ivy league deans, and members of the royal family how to unlock a positive mind-set, Pasricha’s life hit rock bottom. In this Audible Original, you'll hear for the first time Neil's very personal story of failure and resilience - and you'll learn how you, too, can find the strength to get back up.

Behind the Scenes with Neil Pasricha

The problem with the self-help industry, Neil explains, is that ''we aren't sharing the grey stories — the stories in between the lines of the big, high-milestone moments that are on the cover of every greeting card.''

Great story

Thank you, Neil for sharing your story. I’m on that dark and twisty path of self discovery and your memoir has provided me with some courage, hope, feeling that I’m totally normal, and some laughs! Also, Oshawa in the house! 🙌🏻
