You Win Again, Jack: The story of a man who stopped needing to win, and finally did.

You Win Again, Jack is a modern leadership parable for anyone who’s ever looked successful on the outside while quietly falling apart on the inside. Jack Paulson has it all, at least on paper. A thriving company. A wall of accolades. A reputation for excellence. But what started as ambition slowly became armor, and now, in the second half of his life, Jack finds himself disconnected from the people who matter most, and from the man he used to be. What begins as a journey to sharpen his executive presence becomes something more profound: a vulnerable, sometimes painful, always honest reckoning with his values, his relationships, and the high cost of winning at all costs. Through powerful storytelling, real emotion, and moments of piercing clarity, Jack’s journey unfolds in boardrooms and bedrooms, in coaching sessions and silent car rides, on stages and kitchen counters. Along the way, readers witness a transformation, not from bad to good, but from guarded to grounded. This book isn’t a traditional business manual. It’s a mirror. For leaders in midlife who are quietly asking, “Is this all there is?” - For the partners, families, and friends who see the person behind the pressure. - For leaders ready to exchange performance for presence. - and to discover that the next chapter of life may not be about achievement, but alignment. You Win Again, Jack is fiction, yes. But it reflects a truth many of us are just beginning to name. It reminds us that the real win isn’t always in the next deal, title, or milestone. Sometimes, it’s in the pause. And sometimes, the greatest leadership begins at home.
