55 Things Learned at 55: My Journey Through Work-related Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) (55 Things Learned at 55 and 56 Book 1)

By the time you’ve turned fifty-five, you’ve lived a lot of life, had made a lot of mistakes, and learned a lot of lessons. Philip Habacon knows that perhaps better than anyone: he’s been a young hellraiser growing up in the Philippines, a diving instructor in Thailand, a paramedic after immigrating to Canada, and a hunter in the cold Manitoba wilderness. From these rich experiences, he offers fifty-five stories ranging from hilarious to heartbreaking, each with an essential life lesson. An unflinching voice with an extensive range, Habacon delights with narratives of his exciting adventures and enlightens with his portrayal of the harrowing reality of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) facing Canadian first responders, and his uphill journey of mending his mental health and relationships. Honest and unforgettable, 55 Things Learned at 55 is an essential read for all students of life. Read more
