"I was winning at work. I was losing at everything else."
Eric Himes had every marker of success a road warrior can collect. Elite travel status. A career on the rise. A calendar full of meetings that mattered, in cities far from home.
Then one evening, in another hotel room, a photo arrived. His family, gathered around the dinner table. Everyone was there except him. One chair sat empty. His.
That empty chair became the turning point. What followed was a rebuild from the inside out: faith first, then family, then a completely different way of leading. The Empty Chair tells that story honestly, and it turns the lessons into a practical path for leaders who want their work and their life to hold together.
The truth at the center of the book is simple. You cannot build a whole culture from a fractured life.
