Matt Brown is a founder, advisor, and educator with 25+ years of building and scaling organizations across multiple industries. A lifelong runner, rider, and student of human performance, he's fighting his way back to form.

In 2023, a motorcycle crash sent him airborne at highway speed. The impact fractured bones, shredded cartilage, and forced a reckoning: had decades of disciplined preparation actually built something that could hold under existential pressure? The answer—revealed through months of grinding recovery—became this book. Not a motivational story about bouncing back, but a systematic examination of what must be built in quiet seasons so it exists when everything breaks at once.
