Overview
Storytelling is one of our oldest traditions. Stories can make us laugh or cry… or both at the same time. They can teach, inspire and even ignite an entire movement. The i’Mpossible Project is a collection of powerful stories. They’re gritty, deep, heartwarming—and guaranteed to help you discover new possibilities in your life.
These stories are all about overcoming obstacles, reengaging with life, and creating new possibilities—a son’s homicide, a transgender man finding love, coming back from the brink of suicide, finding your funny in the face of overwhelming odds, and more…
If you’re ready to create new possibilities in your life, you need to read this book!

This is pretty big. I’ve been curating this book for more than two years—fiddling with the right combination of stories, authors, and concepts. If you’ve followed along on the blog then you know I've put my everything into this book. And you’re getting a little of me and fifty incredible authors and stories when you get this book. It was exhausting and wonderful and a once-in-a-lifetime process to produce this book… and it was all worth it.
