  • You Can Overcome Insurmountable Odds and Create A Life You Love
    Sep 14 2024

    Being the target of an organized crime hit, narrowly escaping an abusive cult, and battling breast cancer has caused Kendra Petty to wonder, “How much can one person take?” More, life replied. Much more.

    Here is a story of survival unlike any you have heard: Kendra Petty began life by enduring years of childhood abuse, culminating in a stunning breakout from a cult led by her parents that nearly consumed her. Escaping that, she married an abusive drug addict.

    The story does not end there.

    She successfully climbed the corporate ladder–only to discover she worked for an organized crime family, who tried to murder her. It would take every survival tactic she had learned (and more) to avoid ending up dead.

    And that’s just the beginning. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, she finally realized that the changes she needed to make could only be achieved by exploding the life she had deliberately created.

    Listen to her story of how she survived and learned to thrive despite it.

    Kendra Petty is a woman who has succeeded in an all-male industry, becoming an executive vice president at two firms, a dynamic public speaker, a powerful negotiator, and a dealmaker.

    Far from your typical misery memoir, here is a harrowing page-turner: an inspirational story of resilience, grit, and perseverance and a jaw-dropping thriller that proves some lives are stranger than fiction.

    Have you ever wanted to give up? I have.
    You can overcome insurmountable odds and create a life you love. I did.

    Just don’t quit.

    As if surviving years of childhood abuse and narrowly escaping a cult and my mother’s insanity wasn’t enough, I ended up married to a physically and emotionally abusive woman with a hidden drug habit. I tried to make it work. I really did. Despite my success in climbing the corporate ladder my questionable instincts caused me to stay in a toxic business environment longer than I should have. Because of my warped sense of what was acceptable, and even desirable, I ignored countless red flags. Many times I wondered, How much more can one person take?

    After almost dying, I finally realized that the changes I needed to make were so vast and far-reaching that they could only be achieved by exploding the life I had and deliberately creating a new one. For me, it began when I realized that I worked for an organized crime family – who I suspect was trying to kill me for knowing too much. Does this sound impossible? Well, dear reader, I dare you to open the pages of this book, and be the judge. This is my story – the one that I wish wasn’t true but is. Join me on this intense adventure, and here’s a spoiler alert – I’m not dead.
