This book is about a fictitious character named Micah. His life begins in a working-class family in Australia and takes you on his traumatic but inspirational life journey.

Micah's childhood experiences included domestic violence, childhood sexual abuse, bullying, relationship issues and attempted suicide at 16 years of age. As a consequence of these traumatic events, he struggled with mental illness and relationship problems for most of his life. As well as this, he was called up for national service in the Australian Army and spent one year fighting the Viet Cong in Vietnam, resulting in PTSD. In spite of all these difficulties, he was eventually able to turn his life around, succeeding in business and relationships. In his later years he became a counsellor and was able to help many people overcome mental illness and relationship problems.
