A portrait of the author Peter Guercio in a three piece suit.

My name is Peter Guercio, and I’m a former Tech CEO and entrepreneur. After a successful 28-year career at the Fortune 500 level, I began to feel a deep yearning for something more.

I walked away from the success of the corporate ladder to embark on a quest for meaning, a journey that led me to discover profound truths about life, purpose, and happiness.

I wrote this book to share my story of transformation with people like you, hoping it will inspire you to find your own path to a more fulfilling life.

Off the Hamster Wheel

A story of renewal, surviving the end of the world, and finding one's self.

Why I Left

I realized I was missing out on the most important part of my life -the people I love and the things that bring me joy.
