A powerful new book by Richard Radstone

How to more fully love yourself, see others, and navigate this polarized world

An affirmation of your unique value, Sidewalk Ghosts is more than a personal growth book. It’s an entertaining, thought-provoking, and deeply human invitation to live with greater presence, purpose, and impact. Grown from decades of real-world encounters of interviewing strangers, research, and personal insights, author Richard Radstone offers a set of applicable ideas and engaging stories that invite you to slow down, listen closer, know yourself, and cultivate the best in you while connecting with others.
