Dr. Michaela welcomes Adam Witty, founder + CEO of Forbes Books, for a conversation that blends publishing, purpose, and aviation (because apparently the coolest people do both).
Adam shares how he fell into the world of books through a summer internship that sparked a lifelong obsession with storytelling—and why he believes literature has the power to genuinely change lives.
Then… we shift into the cockpit.
Adam talks about how a friend’s encouragement nudged him into getting his pilot’s license—and how flying has become a major part of both his business travel and personal life.
Together, they unpack the parallels between flying and living, including:
The power of preparation
Why proficiency matters
How staying calm in an emergency isn’t a personality trait… it’s a practiced skill
Adam also drops a great reminder using the windshield vs. rearview mirror analogy—encouraging listeners to stop living in the past and start focusing on what’s ahead.
Because the windshield is bigger for a reason.
Thinking of publishing your life story, big idea, or message? Consider Forbes Books—a leader in authority branding and bringing powerful concepts to life.
