Synopsis
If something inside keeps whispering this matters-do something, this book is for you.
It Lit a Fire is a companion for anyone who feels a call to do more-whether your flame is already blazing or just beginning to flicker. Through story-rich chapters, honest reflection, and practical prompts, it helps you nurture that spark, align your values with purpose, and create transformative change that lasts.
At the heart of the book is the Firestarter Model, centered on Pull, Passion, and Courage-the three forces that power every Impact Journey.
Drawing on more than twenty years of work partnering with changemakers in nonprofits, universities, global companies, and the entertainment industry, Tom Bourdon reveals how these forces show up again and again in real lives-and how to activate them in your life and leadership.
As you read, you'll explore three foundational phases-Emerging, Ongoing, and Sustained-and see how smaller micro-moments compound into larger macro-movements of change. Along the way, you'll meet everyday Firestarters as well as iconic public figures from sports, publishing, fashion, and entertainment who share their firsthand stories alongside the author's personal reflections as a leader and coach. Each chapter closes with reflection prompts to help you gain clarity, build momentum, and move from intention to action.
This isn't a book about perfect plans or polishing yourself into the 'ideal' change agent. It's an invitation to honor your inner fire, follow your voice, and choose courage in a way that's sustainable and aligned with your own impact journey. It Lit a Fire will leave you inspired, equipped, and ready to strike the match-to let your inner spark ignite a change reAction.
*****Featuring inspiring firsthand contributions from Sherri Shepherd, Greg Louganis, Donna Karan, Gregory Maguire, Deborra-lee Furness, Jeanette and Jazz Jennings, Stacy and Tim Wakefield (as told by the author), Jennifer Brown, Ronni Sanlo, and more.
