START WHERE YOU ARE Life Lessons in Getting From Where You Are to Where You Want to Be

Mirron Willis's strong voice and thoughtful phrasing are wonderful vehicles for unfolding this back-to-basics guide to living one's best life. His calm reading and connection with Chris Gardner's story are sure to promote listening with an open heart. With the author's recovery from homelessness never far from view, this work is an inspiring invitation to engage with life's possibilities, even when events work against us and no help is in sight. The message stays close to two themes—being honest about ourselves and our present circumstances, and using all the formal and informal learning experiences we can to move our lives forward. Gardner's focus on personal growth has a spiritual component, reflected in Willis’s delivery, that will move listeners in any challenging circumstance.
