About this listen

If you're looking at this book for you, I'm sorry for what you're experiencing.

You now know heartbreak is an exquisitely painful concoction of:

  • Constant nausea
  • Obsessive thinking
  • Crushing depression
  • Stabbing pain in your heart
  • The now lovely potential of having your entire day decimated in an instant
  • Betrayal, groundlessness, and fear

Quite literally, heartbreak is a personally prescribed hell. Trust me, like you, I know it well, and wouldn’t wish it upon my worst enemy.

No book can take this pain away for you, and anyone who says they can is flat out lying. Yet, while the pain may feel like an emotional death sentence, it can be quite the opposite.

I believe heartbreak, as god-awful and gut-wrenching as it is for you, can actually be the greatest opportunity ever you've ever been handed - a gift wrapped in razor wire and sh-t, but a gift none the less. Why?

That's what it was for me, and what I'm going to turn it into for you. The pain you feel right now is the catalyst for growth and development like you've never experienced, fueled by the exact awfulness you now believe is your new normal.

After using the two-and-half year odyssey of my own divorce to very publicly change every aspect of my life, something interesting began to happen - people just like you started reaching out to me and asking how you could do the same. People like you who wanted to not only survive their situations but also use them to do all manner of amazing things like:

  • Lose weight
  • Quit smoking
  • Get sober
  • Start businesses
  • Or rebuild their entire lives

When a close friend had her husband leave, I made the commitment to speak with her for 90 straight days, telling her exactly what I wished someone had told me the moment my own wife walked out.

Every morning, I'd send her an email with a story from my own "hellacious" experience, giving her something inspirational to focus on and an action step to get her from heartbroken back to thriving - as fast as possible.

Those letters were then forwarded to thousands of people in your exact situation, navigating the darkest chapter of their lives.

My goal was simple - to get her just a little bit stronger each and every day, and it worked. And worked. And worked.

This book is those exact letters, compiled for you, with zero punches pulled. The raw truth of my experience. The truth of what you're now facing with no bullshit, plus the best ways to survive, revive, and then thrive.

Here's to you. Getting past today and on to tomorrow.

You will rise, one morning at a time, making yourself one day stronger.

Great advice but a rough editing job

I think this audio book has a lot of great content, but the performance and editing needs a retouch. The author does not need to state quotes and unquotes as much as he does, it’s extremely redundant and not necessary for most things he uses it for. Also there are a lot of parts where there are repeated sentences, like they didn’t manage to edit out two sequential takes.

It changed everything

This is a great book for someone who is dealing with a breakup. It is ok for men to be vulnerable and that made all the difference for me. Though anyone could read it, I think it is a little more directed from a man’s perspective. Thank you, Traver!

Chicken soup for the broken heart in a man

Great advice and cheering up from a man that had his brush with the pain of a breakup. This book not only gives you advice but helps you cope and deal with the pain as it eventually subsided. Highly recommended.

Read and Listen

If you are a man experiencing divorce, read or listen to this book. I did both. Honest and authentic. Divorce is terrible and the author doesn’t sugar coat things one bit.

men need more resources like this

being vulnerable is not a weakness, and more things in culture need to provide that message!

Wish I had found this earlier

With a no-nonsense, tough-love loving way, Traver tackles a topic few have been able to do for men: moving on with grace. Not a grace that is on its surface very pretty (he readily admits and suggests to allow oneself to fall-apart or let off steam as part of the process) but one that is intentional. Maintaining a grasp on masculine logic, he helps guide across the emotional gap that is often challenging for men that have been taught to suck it up or fuck it up. No, we can allow our emotions to be expressed, experience them, look at them, and work through them in a constructive form.

This book is written in a chronological order that takes one for ground-zero day one of a break up to the finish line of a man who has leveraged his pain into power, recognizing his Personal Legend. It’s filled with exercises and first person anecdotes that provide takeaways beyond a heart-ache. It is tool box to fix our perspective on tragedy.

Thanks Traver!
