About this listen
An inspirational, practical guide to success in business and life learned through the opportunities and challenges of growing up as the daughter of NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt, Sr., and becoming one of the most influential women in professional sports. A successful businesswoman shares her story of growing up in the world of NASCAR and the lessons she learned along the way.
Just like a race car as it takes to the track, each of us needs a certain amount of fine-tuning for our journey through life. In Drive, Kelley Earnhardt Miller, daughter of Dale Earnhardt, Sr., and sister to Dale, Jr., opens up about growing up in the world of NASCAR, sharing the lessons she learned about being a successful business leader and what she discovered, often the hard way, about winning in life.
Kelley never felt she was winning at anything until she began to deal with the thoughts and feelings that were driving her decisions and taking her in the wrong direction. Her journey of transformation is what empowered her to run the family business in an entirely different way than she had previously and to lead people not only with her head but also with her heart.
Drive offers nine important lessons learned about winning in business and in life, given not as a formula for greatness but as insight from a fellow traveler on a journey that is sometimes difficult, painful, unexpected, or confusing and sometimes exhilarating and joyful:
- Be authentic and approachable
- Manage your emotions
- Succeed using strengths
- Let go to move forward
- Customize your communication
- Know how to make decisions
- Aim for the win-win
- Show kindness
- Live a balanced life
Become a stronger person and a more effective leader by facing the truth about your own life in a healthy way and then drive to the win!
Workbook content to help you apply Kelley’s nine lessons is available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

Story
When NASCAR star Dale Earnhardt, Jr., retired from professional stock car racing in 2017, he walked away from his career as a healthy man. But for years, he had worried that the worsening effects of multiple racing-related concussions would end not only his time on the track but his ability to live a full and happy life. Torn between a race-at-all-costs culture and the fear that something was terribly wrong, Earnhardt tried to pretend everything was fine, but the private notes about his escalating symptoms that he kept on his phone reveal a vicious cycle.

Carroll Shelby wasn’t born to run. He was born to race - some of the fastest cars ever to tear up a speedway. The exciting new feature film Ford v Ferrari - starring Matt Damon as Shelby and Christian Bale as fellow racer Ken Miles - immortalizes the small-town Texas boy who won the notorious Le Mans 24-hour endurance challenge and changed the face of auto racing with the legendary Shelby Cobra. But there’s much more to his high-velocity, history-making story.

J.D.: The Life and Death of a Forgotten NASCAR Legend tells the true story of J.D. McDuffie, one of stock car racing's most beloved owner-drivers. It's the tale of a man who honed his skills as a mechanic and built his own team from the ground up. It's also about the close-knit group of supporters who came together to make sure McDuffie made it to the track in a rapidly changing sport. And it's about that tragic weekend at Watkins Glen, the investigation that followed, and the legacy he's left behind.

Critic reviews
"The impact of the Earnhardt family in my life and career has been immeasurable. I've practically watched Kelley Earnhardt Miller grow from that confident little girl hanging out with her dad and brother at the racetrack in the early eighties to a successful businesswoman today. Kelley is a person of utmost integrity and has a work ethic like none other. As a result of that hardworking attitude, I'm confident that this book will succeed. Kelley is not only a special friend to the Childresses, but I consider her to be a part of our family." (Richard Childress, chairman and CEO of Richard Childress Racing)
"I got to know Kelley when my team put together the deal for me to come to JR Motorsports and make the move to NASCAR. I've always respected the way that Kelley works to be the best leader for her team, not just the best female leader. She's a strong woman in a man's world who has helped pave the way for other women in the industry. Kelley expects the best out of her employees, and she pushes those around her to succeed." (Danica Patrick, former professional race car driver)
"Reading Kelley's Drive felt like sitting in a room and listening to her tell me all the things she addresses directly and only to me. Through this book, you not only get sage advice from someone who has made a name for herself; you also get to know Kelley. You learn why those who know her respect and appreciate her." (Mike Helton, vice chairman of NASCAR)

People are the problem. They're always the problem. If a business person goes home frustrated, if they talk with their significant other about it, if they lay awake at night stewing about it, inevitably the problem is some person at work - a colleague, subordinate, or boss. Handling people issues is every leader's major headache. It's what takes up the majority of their time and - more important - the bulk of their head space. Every leader can and must develop this most important of all management skills.

For young professionals and entrepreneurs, there is no shortage of gurus, processes, and quick-fix formulas to chase in the quest to grow their business, lead their team, and find personal fulfillment. In fact, there are so many out there that it's exhausting. Wouldn't it be better to realize that the leadership lessons we need to learn are not out there somewhere but in here, in our own lives? That instead of becoming a knock-off of someone else, we can be uniquely ourselves?

People are the problem. They're always the problem. If a business person goes home frustrated, if they talk with their significant other about it, if they lay awake at night stewing about it, inevitably the problem is some person at work - a colleague, subordinate, or boss. Handling people issues is every leader's major headache. It's what takes up the majority of their time and - more important - the bulk of their head space. Every leader can and must develop this most important of all management skills.

Starting in 1997, Bob Chapman and Barry-Wehmiller pioneered a dramatically different approach to leadership that creates off-the-charts morale, loyalty, creativity, and business performance. The company utterly rejects the idea that employees are simply functions to be moved around, "managed" with carrots and sticks, or discarded at will. Instead Barry-Wehmiller manifests the reality that every single person matters, just like in a family. That's not a cliché on a mission statement; it's the bedrock of the company's success.

Challenging and freeing
Kelley does an amazing job of telling her story and letting the readers know how that has impacted the way she leads her company, both positive and negative. How liberating it was to read her battle to both honor her dad’s legacy while forging her own, on her own. I felt as if I was given permission to do the same!

loving this book
I have been an Earnhardt fan since the 80's and I have wanted to know more about Kelley and being in a man's sport.
She is honest thoughtful and raw about what we never saw of Sr and his kids but maybe have lived our selves
Thanks Kelley for sharing your perspective on business and life.

Enjoyed it!
It starts off great! Kelley gives a very unique perspective about her relationship with her father. We have heard Jr. talk about his experience often, so it was nice. However, the book changes to more business leadership side. Which is fine however, many of the chapters or characteristics she talks about start to bleed together and sound like she repeats herself just in a different way and is almost redundant. Then, towards the end of the book, it picks back up and becomes interesting again. All in all I enjoyed it!

Some good advice. Breathy narration, odd.
The best places were when Kelly spoke her own story., but that was only at the first and last. In between? Over-intense, gaspy breaths - several breaths in one sentence.! Odd pauses that betrayed No Rehearsal before recording.
Content was good, expected - but an obvious rant-feel when Dad-issues carried over into the later, business advice chapters. Enough already.
Most ALL children of certain eras had absent, neglectful fathers, and THEIR fathers were the same way. As much as I wanted to give this a higher rating, a 3 star is as generous as I can get.
