Lion is You: Lessons from The Wild on Coming Alive Again By David Gerber

The Lion Is You draws on David Gerber's experiences tracking lions in Africa and confronting grief and fear. He uses the contrast between safety and feeling fully alive to question a life built only around external signs of success.

Part memoir and part personal-growth reflection, the book invites readers to notice restlessness and longing as prompts for inquiry. Its wilderness stories are metaphors for examining purpose, not instructions to approach dangerous wildlife.
