Review :

"A smart and honest freight train of a book, one that's as witty and approachable as it is pragmatic."

-- "Chicago Tribune"

"Jonathan Todd Ross's can-do tone adds positive energy to the practical, down-to-earth advice in this career development audio. His personal flair and perfect phrasing are highlights of the production; furthermore, his clear and boyish speaking voice stays humble and supportive of the author's altruistic intentions. Author Shipp's own humility also figures in the overall effectiveness of this audiobook. A longtime personal development trainer, he's a kind messenger whose thoughtful tips on how to do the work you really desire are very accessible. His inspirational stories--as deftly performed as they are perfectly crafted--make this audio program sneak up on you and challenge you to go to the next level."

-- "AudioFile"

"This book shows you how to take a stock of yourself and then focus your insights onto the ideal job for you. The key to lifelong success!"

-- "Brian Tracy, author of Earn What You're Really Worth"

"Too many people walk away from their dream, swayed by those who say it's not possible. If you're one of those normal people, you'll hate this book. Using 'uncommon' sense, humor, and profound insights, Josh shares how he went right straight toward his dream and how you can do the same."

-- "Dan Miller, bestselling author of 48 Days to the Work You Love"

"When it comes to understanding the minds of young adults, there is no greater expert than Josh Shipp. I've witnessed firsthand the connections he's made and the lives he's transformed. With Jump Ship, he applies his one-of-a-kind talents to helping those who feel stuck at a dead-end. The book he has produced is a masterpiece of intelligence and acute insight. A must-read for anyone entering the workplace or looking to find their place within it."

-- "Ellen Rakieten, Emmy Award-Winning producer of The Oprah Winfrey Show"
