59 Prime provides an intense, inspirational perspective on the power of the human spirit. Character: Who we are when no one is looking. It is making the tough decisions to act with integrity and trust when it costs us. My dear friend and business colleague, Michael Francis, epitomizes the utmost of character and an open, teachable spirit. During the darkest days of the pandemic in 2021, when he was smitten with multiple health afflictions, including almost going blind, he did not blame others or utter, Why me? Instead, he humbly embraced the journey by leveraging the strength from his faith, roots, and headwinds. Join me in reading Michael's story of severe trial, near defeat, resilience, and openness to the power of hope, resiliency, and the message God had for him. This story will bless you as few overcomer stories will because it's written right from Michael's heart. 59 Prime will enrich how you think about the past, present, and future as you go through some of your darkest moments. Tom Garrett, Career CFO, Consultant, and Executive Coach This book is a must-read for anyone who finds themselves in a challenging time in their life. It is filled with wisdom, insight, motivation, and optimism to not only help you to survive, but to thrive.
