The Story
The exec who walked away.
After 25 years climbing the corporate ladder, Ian Aman did the unthinkable. He stepped off. What followed was a year of stripping life down to the studs: 200 mile ultramarathons, brutal honesty, and the slow rebuild of a man who'd lost himself to the grind.
Today he's an author, speaker, and endurance athlete who helps others do the same: trade burnout for purpose, and live with intention, discipline, and fire.
Praise
"Ian's talk hit me like a lightning bolt. Raw, honest, and exactly what our team needed to hear. Weeks later, people are still referencing his message."
Christeine Murray
"He lived every part of what he wrote. It echoed so many of the thoughts I had about what was missing, and what needed to go."
