Built From The Quiet: Secrets From A Basque Sheepherder That Will Transform Your Business And Life.

This is a fantastic book that follows her father's journey escaping the dictator Franco out of the Basque Region of Spain and through the Pyrenees Mountains when he was just a teen.

It is about legacy and coming to this country to become a sheepherder and to make a name for himself.

It's about modern day business and how to operate with legacy passed down and intention in mind, not just the bottom line or how to make a buck but how to make a living.

The prose are beautifully crafted, the insights are poignant for business leaders, and the hard won wisdom is universal.

This is a very impressive business book while also being an amazing book on life.

Anamarie Lopategui didn’t learn business from textbooks. She learned it by watching her father lead with grit, consistency, and care.

Years later, Anamarie built what many would call a successful, thriving business in one of the toughest industries.

From the outside, she looked like she had made it. Yet beneath the polished exterior there was disconnection and a single question from her father that unraveled it all: “But are you happy?”

Built From the Quiet is part memoir, part business guide, and part permission slip to reimagine what success really means.
