About this listen
Are you living your life the way everyone thinks you should, instead of how you want to live it? Do you constantly crave something more? A purpose? A direction? The feeling that you can accomplish anything you want to in this world?
Joseph Campbell said it best. "We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us."
From the death-defying streets of Pamplona to the life-saving Transplant Unit in Pittsburgh, this motivational and inspiring memoir tells the story of a young man lost in the meaningless depths of corporate America who, in search of his next big adventure, donates his liver to a stranger and finds his life changed in ways more powerful and purposeful than he could ever have imagined.

Story
On the one-year anniversary of her divorce, Alex Martinez is getting closure—and margaritas with her two best friends. But just before the celebratory meetup, Alex is clobbered by life once again. Damping the cheer is the diagnosis of a brain tumor she can’t pronounce, a procedure she’d rather postpone, and the prospect of what to say to an already heartbroken mother. Not that Alex plans to tell her anything anytime soon.

For us, it was a literal knock, with two men standing in crisply pressed uniforms. They had news. News that gutted us to the core - the death of our loved ones, a brother and two husbands - in combat zones. The thing about those moments is that it's almost inconceivable that they can happen to you. That is, until they do.
