I’m deeply grateful to Frank White for contributing the foreword to my book and for these incredibly generous words.

Frank’s work on the Overview Effect has shaped how we understand the profound way seeing Earth from space can change our perspective, and his belief in expanding humanity’s relationship with space has inspired so many.

I’m especially grateful that our paths have also crossed through Moon DAO, an organization built around the wonderfully ambitious idea that we can work together to make access to space more open and possible.

MoonDAO helped make my own journey to space possible. It’s pretty special to now help support the mission to send Frank White to space so he can experience The Overview Effect for himself. 🚀

Check out MoonDAO’s mission and see how you can help send Frank to space:

He wasn’t born a “space guy”…he declared it. 🚀 Mike Mongo built a career by giving kids something many adults never do: permission. Permission to imagine. Permission to ask bigger questions. Permission to believe, “I can do anything.” Sometimes one person’s encouragement can help change the way we see our future.

Mike’s philosophy? Do what you love, with who you love, and help others. That’s more than a space lesson—it’s a life lesson. What would you do if someone gave you permission to dream bigger?

I’m deeply grateful to NASA Astronaut Scott Parazynski, Katya Echazarreta, Richard Garriott, and Amanda Nguyen for their generous endorsements of my book.

Writing this book has given me the opportunity to reflect on the lessons, challenges, and experiences that have shaped my journey, and I’m so honored that these remarkable individuals chose to share their perspective on it.

Their words mean a great deal to me, and I hope the book continues to spark meaningful conversations about resilience, pursuing our dreams, and what it really takes to keep moving forward.

It’s FINALLY here!

I’m thrilled to share that my book, ‘A Heart for Space’ is now available as an audiobook!

Writing this book was a very personal experience for me, and hearing it as an audiobook has made the whole thing feel real in a whole different way.

It’s a book about dreams, setbacks, persistence, and what happens when you keep going even when things don’t go according to plan. It is not just my own story, but includes the journeys of 8 modern space pioneers who have dared to dream big, faced incredible challenges, and refused to give up on what they believed was possible.

If you’ve been meaning to read it, you can now listen to it too.

What if the path you’re on isn’t the only path you’re meant to take?

On this episode of ‘A Heart for Space’ podcast, I talked with physician and author of ‘A Dangerous Diagnosis,’ Dr.Shantanu Rai, who turned to storytelling to capture what medicine cannot. We talked about what it means to have the courage to step outside the lane that’s been defined for you, the need for meaningful healthcare, and more.

His journey is a reminder that pursuing something different can sometimes help us rediscover our purpose, and reveal what we’re capable of!

Looking back at the book launch events for ‘A Heart for Space’ brings back so many great memories and so much gratitude!

From Barnes & Noble Cool Springs and Vanderbilt Bookstore to Adventure Science Center and the U.S. Space & Rocket Center, it was incredible to meet so many people who came out to share in the journey.

Signing books is special. But getting to meet readers (and hear their stories too!), answer their questions, and talk about dreams and space in person is something I’ll never take for granted.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, supported the book, and made these moments so memorable.

I’m so grateful I get to share Kellie Gerardi’s insight in ‘A Heart for Space.’

Having flown to space aboard Virgin Galactic’s Galactic 05 mission as a scientist following her work with IIAS. Kellie didn’t just pursue her own dream of going to space. She’s building a team of scientists, has created opportunities for others, and continues to make the door wider for the next generation, exemplifying fulfilling dreams with teams while also using her platform to make the IVF journey more visible, break the stigma around infertility, and help other women and families feel less alone by creating a sense of community through the journey.

That’s one of the things I love about her story: sometimes achieving a dream isn’t only about getting where you want to go, but about who you bring with you along the way. Thank you, Kellie, for sharing your journey and your perspective in my book. 🚀
