An author describes losing a close family member to a multi-year decline at age 13, when the relative was 47. The death became a turning point that shaped the author's later leadership and life choices.
Look, I can't wait for our listeners to read your book, Lives Lost and Leadership Found. And you know, the book is all about how loss can transform us. I want to start with a personal story or a turning point when a significant loss reshaped how you lead or live.
Ian yeah, I think maybe this story goes back actually quite a few years. It probably shaped me more than anything as a human being. Over the course of a couple of years, he really had a fairly steady decline and passed away when I was 13. He was just approaching his 47th birthday, so fairly young.
