Sample Book Insights:
#1 I was ready to quit my career as a journalist. I had spent six years at the ABC News headquarters in New York City, filing reports for the network and co-hosting World News Now. I was ready to move on.
#2 I explain to James that I need to walk away from The View and the weekend anchor desk at GMA. The Wednesday-through-Sunday schedule is killing me. It’s affecting my marriage and keeping me from my kids.
#3 The executive had warned me of the long-term vocational implications if I left, but I didn’t blame them. After all, they weren’t the only one. Just days before, when I’d told my co-anchor Dan Harris that I was considering leaving the co-anchor desk, he’d said much the same thing.
#4 I had a full portfolio of big interviews in 2017, but the hardest year of my adult life was the previous one, when I thought I was in the clear but ended up having a miscarriage and having to have an emergency surgery due to an infection.

#1

I was ready to quit my career as a journalist. I had spent six years at the ABC News headquarters in New York City, filing reports for the network and co-hosting World News Now. I was ready to move on.

#2

I explain to James that I need to walk away from The View and the weekend anchor desk at GMA. The Wednesday-through-Sunday schedule is killing me. It’s affecting my marriage and keeping me from my kids.

#3

The executive had warned me of the long-term vocational implications if I left, but I didn’t blame them. After all, they weren’t the only one. Just days before, when I’d told my co-anchor Dan Harris that I was considering leaving the co-anchor desk, he’d said much the same thing.

#4

I had a full portfolio of big interviews in 2017, but the hardest year of my adult life was the previous one, when I thought I was in the clear but ended up having a miscarriage and having to have an emergency surgery due to an infection.

#5

I was afraid to take a break, and I was afraid that if I did, I would never find my identity outside of my ability to bounce back from adversity and dive back into work, regardless of how much I was hurting myself or others.

#6

I want to cover the consequential stories. I want the big interviews. I want to do it all on the weekdays, no more weekends. I want to pursue the stories where politics, life, and religion intersect.

#7

I’ve been plagued by fear my whole life, and over the years, I’d almost lost myself to those fears. But time after time, God moved me through those fears and into a deeper sense of my callings.

#8

The buzzwords of our time are calling, purpose, focus, and intention. But what do they mean. And what if we’re called to pursue the wrong thing. Will our lives be full of meaning. Will they be out of balance.

#9

Your faith calling is the direction of your life’s path, and it’s often difficult to figure out. You might feel lost, and you might be too scared to take a vocational leap of faith.
