Right now, I’m in Juneau, Alaska — one of the most beautiful, rugged, and remote places in America. I’m here conducting a professional development workshop, helping leaders adapt to the whirlwind of change that’s redefining how we live and work.
But this post isn’t about the workshop. It’s about a man I met on my way here — a professional just like you — whose story shook me.
I was flying with Alaska Airlines, somewhere between Seattle and Juneau, when the man seated next to me struck up a conversation. At first, it was casual — weather, the view, the trip.
Then it got real.
He shared that his company — a regional supplier — is going out of business. Crushed under the weight of a new tax regime and economic shifts that no one in his leadership saw coming. He wasn’t a low performer. He wasn’t lazy. In fact, he was the opposite — dedicated, experienced, and respected.
But none of that mattered now.
He looked at me, eyes rimmed with fatigue, and said, “I gave everything to this company… and now I don’t even know where to begin.”
That hit me hard. Because he’s not alone. Professionals everywhere — maybe even you — are being blindsided by change: AI, politics, economic upheaval, industry disruption. Many are overwhelmed. Unprepared. Paralyzed.
So I promised him something.
I promised him a resource. A roadmap. A lifeline.
I promised him a free copy of my book.
And now, I’m offering it to you too — for the next 3 days, my book Change Proof Your Career: How Professionals Can Survive and Thrive in a World of Change is FREE on Amazon Kindle.
You can get your copy here:

Don’t wait for your next layoff, merger, or mandate to start preparing for change. Take action. Take back control.
This is your window — grab the book while it’s free.
And maybe… pass it on to someone else who’s at their wits end, too.
