This isn't just a book about me and my Codefi story... it's for you. We've entered a time when there are seismic shifts in nearly every direction we look, where the pace of disruption leaves even grounded people uncertain about what comes next.
I've had discussions with many of you about mental health, startup journeys, the tech landscape, rural innovation, and creating systemic impact. Thank you for the deep conversations, the hard work, and the shared experiences.
I'm now using my journey as a springboard to share how I've found purpose navigating through uncertainty. For you—your work, your team, your town. So you can embrace, "I don't know where I'm going—but I know exactly how to get there."
"Chris Carnell has been one of the most thoughtful and driven leaders I have seen emerge from a rural innovation ecosystem. His work blends vision, rigor, and purpose—and his story is one that more people need to hear right now."> - Matt Dunne, Founder of the Center on Rural Innovation
