Industry Reviews

"Troy Karnes is a testament to the power of resilience, gratitude, and transformation. His journey-overcoming cancer, battling addiction, and emerging with a deeper purpose-offers invaluable lessons for anyone seeking to live with intention. His book isn't just another story, it's a roadmap for recognizing the good in others, fostering meaningful connections, and embracing the power of gratitude. His wisdom is a reminder that the strength we need is already within us-we just have to nurture it. This book isn't just inspiring; it's a guide to living a more connected, grateful, and fulfilled life." - Sean Swarner: USA Today's top 8 most inspirational people.

"Troy Karnes makes a powerful case for prioritizing healthy habits as the foundation for a resilient, fulfilling life. Through vulnerable memoirs and well-researched insights, he shows that nurturing our physical and emotional well-being is the most impactful investment we can make in ourselves." -Stephanie Fee, Founder of Wild Larynx

"A wise and uplifting book, Troy Karnes's No Silver Bullets is an invaluable resource for getting and staying on track in the midst of human struggles. It offers a strong guide and source of motivation to establish the best version of oneself." - Marcy Rubic, CEO Limb Preservation Foundation

"Hard to put down! Troy's storytelling is super engaging and honest-it really pulled me in. His mix of personal stories and research made me reflect on my own experiences in a way I didn't expect. His honesty made me want to be more honest with myself, too. Definitely recommend!" Aaron McElhattan
