In Exercises in Futility Connor Lyons delivers a raw, unflinching autobiography that charts his tumultuous journey from the depths of addiction to the heights of personal and professional success.
Lyons, once a promising athlete in junior and NCAA hockey, found himself ensnared in a 16-year battle with alcoholism, navigating through toxic relationships and national & international scandals that could have defined his life's endgame. Yet, this memoir isn't just about the fall; it's a testament to resilience.
From coaching elite athletes to confronting his own demons, Lyons shares his story with a candidness that is both shocking and inspiring. He discusses his recovery, his role in international sports, and the personal victories that have shaped him into the man he is today: a devoted husband, father, and mildly successful entrepreneur.
Exercises in Futility is not merely a recount of a life lived on the edge but a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with their own battles, proving that from the most futile of exercises, one can emerge stronger, sober, and ready to face the world.
