A COMING OF AGE TRUE STORY ABOUT FAILURE, SELF-WORTH, AND PURPOSE.

 

As far as Rick Williams was concerned, being drafted out of high school by the Atlanta Braves was the realization of his dream and the solution to every problem. He could leave behind his turbulent home life in the California High Desert and focus on the game he grew up loving.

 

But when baseball was ripped away, he could never have prepared for the massive void it left in his life and the pain that would define him and his future. No matter how hard he tried drugs, partying, womanizing, or Hollywood life, nothing could fill the emptiness inside.

 

Only after decades of struggling with crippling fear, anxiety, and broken relationships would Rick finally discover a greater power and purpose on his long journey home.

 

This inspiring story will speak to anyone who has struggled with:

  • THE END OF A SPORTS CAREER
  • RELATIONSHIPS
  • SELF-WORTH
  • FAILURE
  • FEAR AND ANXIETY
  • ACCEPTANCE
