Owen is a master of his meticulously constructed life-a project manager who prides himself on being the glue that holds everything together. He's the human insurance policy, the one who patches up problems with invisible tape and always makes things go good. But beneath the surface, a quiet unease hums, a low thrum of impending burnout. Then, his world shatters with a single, brutal layoff. Stripped of the very identity he built his life around, Owen is forced to confront the truth: his carefully constructed routine was a cage, and his professional purpose was draining him dry. As he grapples with the wreckage of his career, he begins to see the cracks in his life not as flaws, but as opportunities. A flat tire becomes a moment of clarity. A missed flight leads to an unexpected connection. The setbacks that once felt like a personal failure become disguised gifts, each one guiding him toward a new, brave path. Going Good is a powerful, inspiring journey from burnout to purpose. It's the story of what happens when the life you thought you wanted falls apart, and you discover that changing jobs isn't the first step-it's the last. With honesty and heart, Marc Roche reveals how to find the anti-burnout compass within, proving that even from the deepest professional despair, you can extract something good and build a life that truly thrives.
