In her first book, Breaking Cover, Michele Assad introduced the concept “get off the x.” In CIA terms, this is how officers are trained to survive deadly situations: get out of the kill zone as fast as possible. While working in counterterrorism in the Middle East, every day brought a life-or-death situation for Michele. After learning to “get off the x” and use determination and discomfort to fuel a thriving life, Michele calls upon us to do the same. With stories of her time in the CIA and the lives of those whom she encountered, as well as everyday people who found ways to get unstuck in their own lives, she will encourage us to stop feeling stuck and take charge of your situation, much like an agent in the field would.
