Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am Kallen Diggs, author of Reaching The Finish Line. I have helped over 1600 people to reach the finish line. Within the last 5 years, I have helped Average Joes go to college for free (no high SAT score or athletic association necessary), helped people change careers without returning to college, helped dropouts (high school and college) land great careers as well as link people up to six figure entry level careers.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Reaching The Finish Line.
The main inspiration behind the book was seeing the ongoing occurrence of people getting stuck. It is not typically where people want to remain but they become content when they think there are no other alternatives.
As stated in the book, there is nothing wrong with being an average Joe. It can be perfectly fine for some people. However, people shouldn’t be limited to being average if they desire something greater.
Everyone has a different finish line. I just want people to start reaching their finish line.
