Dr. Michaela welcomes Adam Witty, founder + CEO of Forbes Books, for a conversation that blends publishing, purpose, and aviation (because apparently the coolest people do both).

Adam shares how he fell into the world of books through a summer internship that sparked a lifelong obsession with storytelling—and why he believes literature has the power to genuinely change lives.

Then… we shift into the cockpit.

Adam talks about how a friend’s encouragement nudged him into getting his pilot’s license—and how flying has become a major part of both his business travel and personal life.

Together, they unpack the parallels between flying and living, including:

The power of preparation
Why proficiency matters
How staying calm in an emergency isn’t a personality trait… it’s a practiced skill

Adam also drops a great reminder using the windshield vs. rearview mirror analogy—encouraging listeners to stop living in the past and start focusing on what’s ahead.

Because the windshield is bigger for a reason.

• The behind-the-scenes world of modern publishing
• What separates a dreamer from a finisher
• Why aviation teaches focus, clarity, and emotional control
• How to keep your cool when life gets turbulent
• Why forward motion matters more than perfect conditions
