In his new book, Rob illustrates how our internal voice influences every thought, belief, and action. By sharing his own hard losses – the unexpected death of a beloved partner, substance abuse, depression and other family challenges – Rob demonstrates that whatever adversities we may encounter don’t have to be permanent setbacks.
