Brett's two books come directly from lived experience. The third is a collaborative fable that universalizes those principles for readers everywhere.
These two books come directly from Brett's lived experience — the real events, the raw emotions, the hard-won wisdom. Written for anyone navigating major life transitions.
Kim Blair never knew a stranger. Warm, generous, and relentlessly alive, she spent her years building a life full of people who loved her — and who she loved in return, without reservation. While living her best life at fifty-one, tragedy struck: ALS.
She would die within a year of diagnosis.
This memoir is Brett's account of that year — the caregiving, the grief, the impossible ordeal of watching someone you love disappear in slow motion. It is honest in a way that most books about loss are not. There is no easy arc, no tidy resolution. There is only what happened, and what it took to keep choosing love over anger and faith over fate.
At 45, Brett Blair had everything that was supposed to matter. A career. A family. The markers of success that high-achieving men spend their lives accumulating. And a quiet, growing sense that something was fundamentally wrong.
This is the book he wrote when he finally stopped performing and started paying attention. It is the story of waking up — of recognizing that a life built on external achievement can be technically successful and internally hollow at the same time — and what it took to build something real on the other side of that realization.
Part memoir, part philosophy, part practical framework, it speaks directly to men who sense that the second half of their lives could be richer than the first — if only they were willing to do the honest work of figuring out what that means for them.
This collaborative fable takes the principles from Brett's journey and weaves them into a timeless story. You don't need to know Brett's story to be moved by this one — the wisdom speaks universally.
Are you outwardly successful, but feel that something is missing on the inside? Do you strive for passion in your life and wish your days were more meaningful?
Living at the Summit is an entertaining, riveting, and thought-provoking story that takes you through the eyes of five main characters on an emotional journey of profound life change. This is not a typical business fable — it addresses the personal, foundational aspects of life that matter most. The story will tug at your heart and soul, speaking to your unique gifts, passion, and purpose.
If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice to organize yourself, develop right habits, and access resources for growth, this book is for you. By reading this story and applying its principles, you move from mere success to true significance.
