Description
You may not have been chosen by the world's standards but you are purposed and very much needed.
Undrafted & Purposed is a powerful and practical guide designed for men-especially Black men-who are tired of playing less than standard. If you've ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, this book is your call to rise, reflect, and reclaim your position in life.
Written by licensed professional counselor Kervin Searles, this book combines real-life stories, psychology, and sports metaphors to guide you on a journey of:
Understanding your emotional needs and relational patterns
Breaking free from harmful narratives
Embracing your leadership role in your family and community
Creating a game plan for mental, emotional, and spiritual growth
Each chapter closes with "Pause, Reflect, and Reclaim" prompts and "Locker Room Wisdom"-actionable advice that will challenge and empower you.
Whether you're a father, mentor, or just trying to figure out your next move, Undrafted & Purposed will remind you how to play the game. The power to live, love, and lead is already within you.
