Just as life isn’t linear, the valleys may be more meaningful than the peaks. We might not reach the second mountain but the work is the essence.

A quick thank you....I'd not listened to Circles before you wrote about it. I would call it shatteringly astute. Dark and beautfiul - it's been on repeat this week. So grateful.

I read SECOND STORY MOUNTAIN when it came out. Grabbed GETTING TO KNOW SOMEONE after you wrote about it. Brooks is a great communicator, and like you, he has done a lot of internal digging.

Appreciate your writings and courageous sharing. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

Welcome to Colorado! Eat tacos and jump in cold, running mountain water.

I believe the books we need to read come to us from our Creator.

I have been in this type of valley too, Allison, and I couldn’t have described it better. Wishing you so much compassion and grace 💖 A mountain town in the summer sounds like the perfect place for this moment.

and I have never heard of this book - will have to check out it out. Thank you!🙏

I added “story” to the title. THE SECOND MOUNTAIN. I always think of Merton’s SEVEN STORY MOUNTAIN when I think of Brooks’ book. 🤦
