Here’s the description: What if the real mountain you need to climb isn’t made of rock and ice—but self-doubt, perfectionism, and the fear of not being enough?

Brandon Cox had all the outward signs of success: a solid career, a picture-perfect family, and a growing reputation. But beneath the polished surface, he was crumbling—trapped in a lifelong struggle with imposter syndrome, approval addiction, and the pressure to perform. When the cracks widened, the life he’d built began to fall apart.

In search of clarity, healing, and a deeper sense of identity, he set his sights on something that both terrified and inspired him: climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. What began as a physical challenge quickly became something much more—a reckoning with his own shadow.

This isn’t just a story about summiting a mountain. It’s about everything that goes with you on the way up—and what’s still waiting for you when you come back down. With powerful metaphors and real-life reflections, It Goes With You explores the terrain of transformation: from shame to self-acceptance, from striving to surrender, and from pretending to becoming.

Whether you’ve climbed a literal mountain or not, this book will meet you where you are—and challenge you to keep going
