SHIFT: Getting Unstuck in Work, Life & Relationships

In Shift, pastor, chef, and nonprofit leader Ben Dubow invites you into a honest, practical look at what it really takes to get unstuck in work, life, and relationships.Drawing on stories from crowded restaurant kitchens, church basements, and community nonprofits, Ben shows how real change doesn't start with willpower or a new to-do list. It starts with three things we usually overlook: - the stories we tell about ourselves and others- the questions we ask (and avoid)- the metrics we use to measure our livesWhen those three things are off, we stay trapped-burned out at work, isolated in relationships, or stuck in patterns we hate but can't quite shake. When we shift them, new possibilities open up.Blending insights from psychology, neuroscience, leadership, and scripture, Shift offers: - simple tools to rewrite the stories that keep you stuck- better questions that move you from blame to curiosity and growth- healthier metrics for success that honor both results and relationships- a path from transactional relationships to genuine kinship and belongingEach chapter weaves real-life narrative with reflection questions and small, doable practices you can try right away-no spiritual perfection or advanced degrees required.Whether you're a leader, a caregiver, or simply tired of feeling stuck, Shift is a field guide to rethinking how you see yourself, your work, and the people around you-so you can move toward a life marked by purpose, courage, and connection.Shift is part of the Running the Way series, which explores what it means to follow the way of Jesus in real life, with open hands, open questions, and an open table.
