How Starbucks Saved My Life by Michael Gates Gill Book Summary

Now in paperback, the national bestselling riches-to-rags true story of an advertising executive who had it all, then lost it all—and was finally redeemed by his new job, and his twenty-eight-year-old boss, at Starbucks.

In his fifties, Michael Gates Gill had it all: a mansion in the suburbs, a wife and loving children, a six-figure salary, and an Ivy League education. But in a few short years, he lost his job, got divorced, and was diagnosed with a brain tumor. With no money or health insurance, he was forced to get a job at Starbucks. Having gone from power lunches to scrubbing toilets, from being served to serving, Michael was a true fish out of water.

But fate brings an unexpected teacher into his life who opens his eyes to what living well really looks like. The two seem to have nothing in common: She is a young African American, the daughter of a drug addict; he is used to being the boss but reports to her now. For the first time in his life he experiences being a member of a minority trying hard to survive in a challenging new job. He learns the value of hard work and humility, as well as what it truly means to respect another person.

Behind the scenes at one of America’s most intriguing businesses, an inspiring friendship is born, a family begins to heal, and, thanks to his unlikely mentor, Michael Gill at last experiences a sense of self-worth and happiness he has never known before.

Starbucks saved my life. Interesting read. I loved all the life lessons on what is most important. Really put life into perspective. I admire the authors honesty. A good read and greatly written.

Good book!. I really liked it. The only problem is it made me crave Starbuck's throughout it. :)

Amazing. It's incredibly eye-opening to me. I find myself - while much younger than the author - identifying with him. Why? The best I ever had was working in a local supermarket when I was in HS and college. All the other "professional" ones, while I have met some amazing people I am proud to call friends, the vast majority have been soulless corporate automatons that once I leave where I am, they might as well never have existed to me. More companies should follow the Starbucks lead of nurture from a human level and maybe it might be better to work in Corporate America. One day, I hope to find what the author has found. This book gives me hope that, soon, I, too, will be happy again.

Makes Me Smile. A heartwarming story with fun facts about Starbucks that is a fun read.
