About this episode
In her new book, Next Chance You, Wagner offers a roadmap to move forward from where readers currently are in life. “We are all a product of our experiences, but none of us are stuck. We sometimes lack the courage or knowledge to move forward and create different,” Wagner says. “I want to inspire and equip people to believe in who they are and start from where they are to evolve, create and believe in something better. The starting line may be different for each of us, but none of us are operating on our 'last chance.' There is hope! We will have a 'next chance' and I want to equip the readers with the mindset to see it, believe in it and go for it.” Using practical strategies and empowering examples from her own life and those she has counseled, Wagner will show readers how to build positive daily habits, overcome obstacles, and develop a growth mindset. Included at the end of most chapters are Sharpen Up! activities to allow readers the opportunity to self-reflect and apply ideas from each chapter. BRITTANY WAGNER is the breakout star of the hit Netflix docuseries Last Chance U, which followed the top-ranked junior college football team at East Mississippi Community College, where Brittany served as athletic academic counselor. After leaving EMCC, Brittany founded Ten Thousand Pencils (10KP), a consulting company focused on providing solutions-based programs to professionals at corporations and higher education institutions, and the Last Chance Foundation, a nonprofit that focuses on meeting the social and emotional needs of low-income students, while also addressing academic needs. Brittany lives in Birmingham, Alabama. Visit her website at brittanywagner.com.
