Description

Are you trapped in a life you built but no longer recognise?

Derek Thomas spent nearly three decades in education, and the last five years as a headteacher, inspiring thousands of pupils to discover their potential.
From the outside, he had it all: respect, purpose, a career he loved. But inside, he was drowning. His wife had to jokingly introduce him to his own children at breakfast. His health was failing. And the profession he'd poured his soul into was slowly destroying him, one impossible budget cut, one sleepless night, one missed family moment at a time.

Then came the heart scare that forced an impossible choice: stay the course or save his life.

From Classroom to the Climb is the raw, unforgettable story of one man's transformation from burnt-out educator to standing atop Mount Kilimanjaro, reclaiming his health, his family, and his freedom in just one decade.

In this book, you'll discover:

The 'ethical exit strategy' Derek used to build financial freedom whilst still employed (without compromising his integrity)

How 1% daily improvements compound into extraordinary life transformation

The GROW framework that turns overwhelming change into achievable action steps

Why grit, not talent, intelligence, or luck, is the ultimate predictor of success

The 'consistency chain' method that creates unstoppable momentum

How to reinvent yourself at any age, even when it feels impossible

This book is for you if:

• You feel trapped in a career that once fulfilled you but now drains you

• You're successful at work but failing at life

• You feel guilty for wanting more when you "should" be grateful

• You think you're too old, too tired, or too far along to start over

• You're looking for a practical roadmap (not just motivation) to change your life

What makes this book different:

Derek doesn't just share his story, he gives you the exact frameworks, strategies, and mindset shifts he used to transform every area of his life. From financial independence to physical vitality to emotional presence, this is a complete blueprint for reinvention.

Plus, 100% of book profits support orphans at Stella Maris Primary School, so every purchase creates real change for children in need.

The best time to create your exit strategy was ten years ago. The second best time is now.
