To make a change, you must do more than want the change. You must desire it and make it an imperative. Once that change is an imperative, anyone can change their lives. I used to believe that no one can change. I have seen people want to change and acknowledge this “want” to change. But over time, they remained the same. Then I personally witnessed members of my family change their lives and their behaviors in a drastic way. They were addicted to drugs and would do anything to feed their habits no matter who they hurt. It was clear they wanted to change but did they have the desire?

Kip Kreiling was arrested three times before he was 10 and eleven times before he was 14. He moved in and out of jail, group homes and street shelters before he was 26 numerous times. In The Imposter, Kip shares his amazing transformation from a drug addicted criminal into a successful executive. Through his faith he transforms his life into a completely different person. Kip shows that even when you have hit rock bottom and facing nothing but doom, you can still hold onto hope. Whether it is a personal, professional or group transformation, you can succeed.

Watching my own family, I knew I wanted a different life. I also watched over and over seeing how people never change. I didn’t believe in drug addiction recovery or any sort of transformation. Then I was shocked to see my loved ones change their lives. It happened and it was amazing to watch. They are people that I can look up to now. They didn’t have a book to tell them how to change. They relied on family and the Bible. Their faith is amazingly strong and such an inspiration. This has led me to believe that with the right tools, anyone can change.

After reading The Imposter by Kip Kreiling, this has just made my beliefs more concrete. When Kip first told me his story, it was unbelievable. How can a person really go from a juvenile criminal to a Fortune 15 executive? Is it possible to change that drastically? This story was inspiring. It is a story that doesn’t just tell you that it is possible to change, it shows you. It isn’t just another self help book on how to transform your life in so many steps. It details a story of a young man’s personal transformation as well as snippets of others. Kip shows his personal growth in depths. He shows real life situations that he has lived through and witnessed to help others transform their own lives.

I am not much of a reader when it comes to books that tell a person how to change. I personally get bored with those kinds of books. I get lost. When I am looking to change my life, I want to read something that gives examples and gives me hope! Kip does that in The Imposter. In detail, he describes his drug addiction, his criminal behaviors, his addiction recovery and the situations that helped him change his life. He didn’t just change his life overnight and he did have set backs. But he knew that he could overcome them and that is exactly what he did! The steps that are in this book are not just for someone who is suffering from an addiction. They can be used in any necessary change that a person must take in their lives.  I look forward to sharing this book with others and recommend it to all.

Kip has been generous enough to not only provide a book for me to review but 11 additional copies that are being donated to the county jail. I was blown away by his generosity to really share his story with others. He is also giving 5 readers the opportunity to read his book. Whether you are looking for a change in your own life or know someone who is, this is a giveaway for you!
