What this is about
When Life Comes Full Circle is a deeply personal and universally resonant exploration of what it means to live with purpose.
Drawing on her own experiences and those of the leaders and professionals she has coached, Antoinette weaves together stories, reflections, and practical wisdom.
This is a book about the moments that change us. The losses that reshape us. The transitions that, in hindsight, were exactly what we needed.

Introduction: The Shape of a Full Life
I did not plan to write this book. It wrote itself — in the margins of difficult years, in the conversations I had with people who were trying to make sense of what had happened to them.
What I have seen — and what this book is about — is transformation. The kind that only happens when something ends.
Those moments are not interruptions to your life. They are the life.
