Once I was alone, depressed, and suicidal. One small act of kindness, a cup of coffee bought for me, totally changed my life. Today, I search for opportunities to serve those same acts of kindness and encouragement to people who need it most with my book, or with a simple cup of coffee brewed just for them.
Tim Stiffler-Dean, Founder of the online coffee finding community Brew The Way, has been working in coffee for nearly 5 years as a barista, and has pursued a career as an entrepreneur for more than a decade. As revealed in his TEDx Talk, Tim's experiences as a child in protective services has pushed him to actively seek opportunities to show compassion to those who need it most.

Hello friend,
We've made tremendous progress over the last month in bringing Brewing The Way to book shelves everywhere. Here are a few updates for you:
With 1 week remaining, we're 50% of the way there!
That's right - we made it to the halfway point. That's just AWESOME. I am so encouraged by everyone who ordered and supported the campaign. Thank you!
How can we reach the goal, together?
Remember, even if we don't reach the goal, I'm going to be self-publishing. This book IS going to happen, thanks to all of you.
Check out the book's official website and be sure to share with your friends: https://brewingtheway.com/
Cheers!
Tim
