Acknowledgments
There are so many people I want to thank at this point, as it takes a village to write a book or do absolutely anything that matters in life. I am so grateful to Lauri Hornik, and the team at Dial Books, for their focus and clarity and for wanting to create books that inspire. A heartfelt thanks to my agent, Faye Bender, for her enthusiasm every step of the way. To Libby VanderPloeg, you are a genius. To Leigh Standley for always reminding me that “fortune favors . . .” Leslie, Bruce, Brenna, et al, thank you for your honesty and for being part of my team. I am grateful to Brian Leaf for his wise counsel and to Adrian Zackheim and Kate Cortesi for being in my corner. To Ben, Bekah, Sarah, and Alex, how did I get so lucky? To Rolf Gates, thank you for being my friend and partner in all things and for making every single day an adventure. And to Jasmine and Dylan, you two are everything and you make me want to make this world a better place.
