Joel Steele’s failures almost broke him. By age 24, he’d fallen flat on his face in the business world and owed nearly half a million dollars. But failure didn’t extinguish his flame — it became his accelerant. In his Amazon #1 New Release, Life Switch: How to Experience the Power of Living ON, Steele helps readers see what’s possible when they learn to envision with clarity the life they want to create.
“Sometimes the lesson isn’t in the moment,” Steele said. “It’s in choosing to overcome hard knocks on the walk back home.”
In Life Switch, Steele retraces his candid story of resilience and reinvention, from facing jail time, bankruptcy and a near-death experience, to ultimately finding professional success and even an NBA championship ring. Blending unflinching personal narrative with practical advice, he reveals strategies for unlocking potential, rediscovering passion and transforming adversity into purposeful opportunity.
Life Switch serves as a roadmap for readers seeking change, offering guidance on how to “flip the switch” and fully engage with life’s possibilities. Steele’s journey illustrates that fulfillment is not a matter of luck but of mindset and action.
To underscore his commitment to giving back, Steele has pledged to donate $1 million to charity if Life Switch reaches one million copies sold. For Steele, the pledge is more than a sales goal — it’s a statement about the ripple effect of positive change.
“When people flip their switch, they don’t just change their own lives,” Steele said. “They impact their families, their communities, and ultimately, the world. This pledge is my way of sparking more positive light in this world.”
