b"In her new book,\\xa0Next\\xa0Chance\\xa0You, Wagner offers a roadmap to move forward from where readers currently are in life.\\xa0\\u201cWe are all a product of our experiences, but none of us are stuck. We sometimes lack the courage or knowledge to move forward and create different,\\u201d Wagner says. \\u201cI want to inspire and equip people to believe in who they are and start from where they are to evolve, create and believe in something better. The starting line may be different for each of us, but none of us are operating on our 'last\\xa0chance.' There is hope!\\xa0 We will have a 'next\\xa0chance' and I want to equip the readers with the mindset to see it, believe in it and go for it.\\u201d\\xa0\\n\\nUsing practical strategies and empowering examples from her own life and those she has counseled, Wagner will show readers how to build positive daily habits, overcome obstacles, and develop a growth mindset. Included at the end of most chapters are Sharpen Up! activities to allow readers the opportunity to self-reflect and apply ideas from each chapter.\\xa0\\xa0\\n\\nBRITTANY WAGNER is the breakout star of the hit Netflix docuseries\\xa0Last\\xa0Chance\\xa0U, which followed the top-ranked junior college football team at East Mississippi Community College, where Brittany served as athletic academic counselor.
