Where are my Feet?

Searching for Solid Ground.

Life rarely falls apart politely. Where Are My Feet? speaks to the moments when confidence cracks and direction feels unclear. Through personal story, hard lessons, and moments of humor, Paul Carlson invites readers to slow down, take inventory, and learn how to stand with intention again. It is honest, grounded, and written for those who are still standing, still searching, and unwilling to quit.

FINDING MY FEET

Student & Young Adult Edition
17 Simple Truths for Staying Present in a Distracted World

​​

After speaking about Where Are My Feet?, I realized those lessons needed another voice and a different lens. Finding My Feet grew from that idea: 17 simple truths about relationships, emotions, uncertainty, and staying present while you’re still figuring out who you are and where you’re going.

​

And seventeen wasn’t nearly enough. The Bonus Truths continue the conversation with lessons that could just as easily have found a home in the book.
