EP 182 - The Lighthouse Effect: How Ordinary People Can Have an Extraordinary Impact in the World

Steve Pemberton’s story is unforgettable. His award-winning memoir, A Chance in the World, describes his escape from brutal foster homes and his decades-long quest to discover the identities of his birth parents. Along the way, Steve learned in his journey that family is not just what you are born into; it is also who you find along the way. And some of those people are called lighthouses.

Every now and then, you come across a book that is so timely it stops you in your tracks. Steve Pemberton’s second book, The Lighthouse Effect: How Ordinary People Can Have an Extraordinary Impact in the World is one such book. It offers readers real hope and a path forward, through our divided times. 

Steve’s highly motivational messages: Believe in your dreams, rise above obstacles, create opportunities for others, and most of all, persevere.
