Blueprints for the Brave

Genre: Business / Leadership 
Premise: A guide to taking courageous steps in business and leadership. 
Brief Synopsis:
Blueprints for the Brave is your backstage pass to the minds of leaders who’ve turned fear into fuel. Through gripping stories—like a CEO who gambled her life savings on a moonshot idea and a startup founder who defied industry giants—you’ll learn to thrive in uncertainty rather than cower from it. This isn’t about stale case studies; it’s a rebel’s toolkit for making bold decisions when the stakes are high. Discover strategies like “Controlled Arson” (burning outdated norms to spark innovation) and “Scar Tissue Leadership” (using past failures to build unbreakable confidence). From navigating boardroom battles to surviving market crashes, this book arms you with frameworks to transform paralyzing risks into rocket fuel. For fans of Brené Brown’s vulnerability meets Elon Musk’s audacity.
Target Audience: Entrepreneurs, leaders, and risk-takers. 
Approximate Book Length: 75,000 words.
