Stoked: A Spiritual Journey from Employee To Lifestyle Entrepreneur
Greg Rex
“You can be the strongest, most limber guy in the world, but if you don’t know how to go with the flow, you’ll get rejected every time.”
“Rejected by who?” Mitch asked.
“The Force. Mother Nature.”
Mitch Springer has an all-too-common definition of success: make millions of dollars, drive a fancy sportscar, wear designer clothes, romance beautiful women, and take epic surf trips to tropical islands. He fantasizes about surfing Pipeline—the most crowded, intense, and dangerous lineup in the world.
At age 28, however, he finds himself fifty pounds overweight, $100K in debt, burned out in a soul-sucking corporate job, hen-pecked by his girlfriend, and staring longingly at the beach from the window in the lobby of Reynolds Pharmaceuticals. A series of devastating losses and a knock-out blow to the head from his surfboard lead Mitch to an enigmatic beach bum named Jake—a true soul surfer.
Through intense surf training, Jake challenges everything Mitch thought he knew about success. Mitch gains new insights into happiness, health, and wealth, then sets out to create a balanced and harmonious life as a “lifestyle entrepreneur”…and surf Pipeline.
