The Man in the Glass Office

Description

He had everything. He had built the perfect life. So why was he a ghost in his own story? Ben Harris has achieved it all. The corner office on the 41st floor. The partnership at a prestigious London firm. The perfect home. But he is a man trapped inside a glass office of his own making, hollowed out by a relentless, 24/7 storm of anxiety, distraction, and the constant, screaming voice of his inner critic—the “roommate who never shuts up.” He is a stranger to his family and a fraud among his peers. He is a high-performer who is about to burn out and lose everything. A humiliating public failure in a high-stakes meeting becomes his breaking point. His firm, fearing he’s a liability, forces him into the office of Maya, an unconventional performance coach who sees right through his polished armor. She doesn’t offer him productivity hacks. She offers him an anchor. The Man in the Glass Office is a gripping, fast-paced modern parable that follows one man’s journey from a life of frantic performing to one of authentic presence. Through a series of transformative, page-turning conversations, Ben learns to… • Silence the inner roommate that has been narrating his misery. • Find the “anchor” that pulls him out of the anxiety of the future and the regret of the past. • Stop being a “cloud” who observes his life and start being a participant “in the mud.” • Learn how to hold an “umbrella” for others—to truly listen and connect, not just “fix.” This is a story for anyone who has ever felt trapped by their own success, burned out by the chase, or who has looked at the life they’ve built and asked, “Is this it?” It is a guide to silencing the noise, finding your anchor, and, finally, coming home.
