Plot twist: I stopped looking for a job.

Hey! How have you been! It’s been a while, I know.

I’ve spent the last few months trying to get my new business, Mighty Forces Books, off the ground.

I finally realized that chasing a traditional job just wasn’t going to happen for me.

Ironic, I know, for a guy who spent two years writing a job search newsletter.

But I think one of the many lessons here is that if you can’t find someone to hire you, make your own thing.

That’s a hard road.

Hard.

But sometimes the path chooses you.

And I wanted to let all of you know that my first client book to be sold on Amazon went live over the weekend! This is an exciting development.

Here’s a little about the book:

When Karin Krause was 17, she walked into a nursing home to visit her beloved neighbor. What she found broke her heart: staff pushing residents down halls while talking over them, as if they weren't even there.

That experience launched a 40-year mission.

Karin became a nurse, fought the system from within, then built something revolutionary: Hope & A Future, an intergenerational community where seniors don't just survive—they thrive alongside families and children.

Her new book reveals how she did it.

"Hope and a Future: Where Generations Find Purpose Together" just launched on Amazon. It's Karin's blueprint for creating communities where no one feels invisible.

This isn't just about eldercare—it's about rebuilding how we care for each other.

If you’re interested in Karin’s story or the mission of Hope & A Future, please consider buying a copy of the ebook and writing a truthful review. Those early reviews help a lot in spreading Karin’s message to new readers on the platform. Thank you.
