Description
Get Up and Go Heroes brings together twenty-four real stories of hope, courage and second chances — people who forgave the past, lived fully in the present, and went on to create a future nobody expected of them.
Why Get Up and Go Heroes Resonates
Compiled by Eileen Forrestal, with a foreword by Judymay Murphy, the collection includes contributions from Gordon Ryan, Bill Liao, Nikki Bradley, Pat Falvey, Roger James Hamilton, Samantha Kelly, Jerry Cahill and many more — each a short, honest account of getting back up and going again, from illness and loss to reinvention and adventure. Twenty-four different lives, twenty-four different starting points, and one shared thread: none of them stayed where they fell.
Who It’s For
Anyone who wants proof, in someone else’s own words, that a hard chapter isn’t the last one. It sits well beside the diaries and journals for a reader who wants a story rather than a blank page to fill, and makes an easy gift for anyone going through their own version of starting over.
Get Up and Go Heroes is a book to dip into rather than read start to finish: pick it up on a hard day, and find someone who’s already walked a version of it.
Every Copy Gives Back
Get Up and Go Heroes is a not-for-profit publication. Every cent of profit from every copy sold goes to B1G1 (Business for Good), a global giving initiative that turns everyday purchases into real, measurable impact — clean water, education, healthcare and livelihood projects for people who need them, tracked and reported back. Buying this book is itself a small version of the same story it tells.
