What happens when the ground beneath your feet disappears? At twenty, April Rinne lost both parents in a car accident. In an instant, her entire world-her sense of security, her future plans, her very identity-vanished. Most of us will never face such devastating loss, yet we're all experiencing a collective version of it right now. The workplace is transforming. Climate patterns are shifting. Careers that seemed secure are evaporating. Technology is rewriting the rules faster than we can learn them. We're living through a moment when change has never been faster-yet will never again be this slow. The question isn't whether change will disrupt your life, but whether you'll let it destroy you or transform you. The difference lies not in avoiding uncertainty, but in fundamentally reimagining your relationship with it.
