Description

"Though trepidation has haunted me every step of this journey, I have a
trusted force that I cannot see." —Michele Rigby Assad, Breaking Cover: My
secret life in the CIA and what it taught me about what's worth fighting
for

When faced with life-or-death situations on a daily basis, Michele Rigby
Assad knew she had to turn to something greater than herself for support.
Drawn toward international affairs as a child obsessed with reading
National Geographic, she later spent 10 years working undercover in the
CIA, interrogating terrorists while stationed in the most dangerous war
zones across the Middle East.

Michele's journey is a fascinating one, and I loved our first conversation
so much (listen here) that I asked her back for round two to celebrate her
book, Breaking Cover, launching this week!! After a seven year journey with
this project, we talk about finding courage in unexpected places, trusting
that puzzle pieces are falling into place even when she felt stuck or
blocked, and how allowing herself to "be shaped" has provided far greater
blessings and guidance than she could have ever imagined.
