Colby’s seminal book The Curveball : a Story of Grit, Adversity, and Winning the Game of Life was published during the pandemic in 2020. It takes an awe-inspiring journey through struggle, teaching perseverance, grit and daily tactics and habits.

Colby explores the ideas of the egoic self the heroic self and the battle to overcome adversity. This ongoing battle exposes the challenges and difficulties all humans face. A big proponent of daily habit, Colby believes that good rituals and can lead to increased productivity and growth and provide a solid foundation, particularly in times of change and instability.

Colby’s second book The Underdog is a thought-provoking book that helps readers learn how to tap into their own personal ‘underdog’ as a source of personal power, consider their ‘inner saboteur’, learn how to live a life greater than thought possible and how to consistently stay strong every day.
