SACRED CROSSROADS — TIP SHEET / HOST TALKING POINTS

Written as questions a host can ask. Each is designed to be answered in 2-3 minutes.

1. You built companies and chased outcomes for decades. What made you finally ask, "Is this all there is?"
2. You've described a complete spiritual awakening in 2023. What actually happened in that period?
3. Why did this material need to be a novel, rather than a business book?
4. Noble Manning's life "works" — that's the problem. Why is quiet discomfort more transformative than dramatic crisis?
5. A hardware store as sacred ground: what drew you to the most ordinary possible setting?
6. Who is the Night Walker, and what is the question he refuses to answer for Noble?
7. You write about "the void." What is it, and why is staying with it so uncomfortable but so important?
8. What did you have to let go of in order to write this book honestly?
9. Why do so many high performers quietly relate to Noble's situation?
10. What's the practical takeaway for someone standing at their own crossroads right now?
11. How does Sacred Crossroads connect to your business books on certification and licensing?
12. What role does a book club play in a book like this?
