Disclaimer

This book is highly opinionated, personal, and full of behind-the-scenes stories. You may not like this. Some people like seeing how sausage is made, but many do not.

Although everything in this book is true and written to be useful, if you don’t always want to hear the truth, this book might not be for you.

This book is written with faith in the idea that if we all spoke thoughtfully and listened carefully, the world would be a better place.
