“This book shook something loose in me. It reminded me, viscerally, that we are living through a pivotal moment in human history, one where the soul of our species hangs in the balance. With extraordinary courage, grace, and grit, Jeff Burningham delivers a message that is as urgent as it is eternal: before we hand the reins to machines, we must remember what it means to be fully, achingly, beautifully human. This book is a mirror, a fire, and a prayer. A roadmap home. Jeff doesn’t write from the head; he writes from the heart, the gut, the scar tissue. His words invite us to slow down, to feel again, to reconnect with the depth, presence, and wisdom that no algorithm will ever replicate. In a time obsessed with artificial intelligence, this book is a masterclass in embodied wisdom. It is brave. It is needed. And it just might help save us.”
