Running to Catch Up: Winning in Spite of Myself is a captivating memoir by Stephanie “Steph” Jones. In her debut work, Jones takes listeners on a personal journey as she confronts the obstacles she faced in overcoming her fears in the workplace and in her personal life. As a successful executive, wife of over 30 years, and proud mother of two remarkable young men, Jones seemed to have it all. However, the transition to an empty nest triggered a temporary depression and exacerbated her fears even further.

Jones, known for her problem-solving skills, refused to let herself be crippled by depression. Instead, she took control of her life by applying her problem-solving approach to her personal challenges. This decision prompted her to embark on a transformative journey of self-reflection. Drawing inspiration from her 11-year-old self, the person she admired most, Jones, at the age of 52, courageously confronted her fears, transformed her life, and redefined herself as a legacy builder. From navigating the challenges of the workplace to managing her personal life, Jones shares her experiences and the strategies she employed to tackle these hurdles head-on.

Through her candid storytelling, listeners gain insights into the lessons she learned, the personal growth she experienced along the way, and a glimpse into the future she envisions for her life. This book serves as an inspiring guide for anyone seeking to overcome their own fears and find the courage to live their best life.
