Max Stephens isn't your coach. He's what comes after your coach stops working. He doesn't believe your problem is a lack of clarity, confidence, discipline, or morning routines. He's not here to help you optimize your calendar or believe in yourself. He's here to ask the question none of those ""positive mindset"" peddlers want you to confront: What the fuck do you really want? Max works with high performers who've ticked every box society told them to, and are quietly panicking that they still feel empty. He calls bullshit on the cult of productivity, the lie of ""success equals fulfillment,"" and the myth that you can fix your existential dread with breathwork and a green juice. He's a personal development strategist who helps ambitious people stop playing the game they never actually chose, and start building a life that matters. His approach is raw, rigorous, and rooted in developmental theory, ontological coaching, effective conversational practice, and a very healthy disrespect for cultural conditioning.This book is not here to inspire you.It's here to break the trance.If you make it to the end, you'll know where to find him.
