A quick summary
Tom Chapman tells the story of how he started the Lion’s Barber Collective – an international movement of barbers skilling themselves and others to have meaningful conversations that improve mental health and help prevent suicide. The books tells his personal story of a secure childhood and relatable young adult misadventures – and the shock and grief losing a friend to suicide. This loss moved Chapman to act and rally other barbers to act as well. It’s a heart-on-sleeve, highs and lows memoir, with plenty of lessons for anyone wanting to make a difference.
