"LIFE IS FILLED with encounters between people that profoundly shape our lives. How can you deepen these interactions and become more aware of their importance? What does it mean to be true to yourself? These and many other questions are answered in this book, which will inspire you to start viewing your life with new eyes.

OVER THE YEARS, Rikard Karlsson has become increasingly fascinated by the endless possibilities that exist in every interaction when people meet. The book you hold in your hand is very personal and is partly based on the insights and experiences that Rikard has gained through encounters with his patients during his twenty-three years of work as a surgeon.

The book is also about connecting with yourself, making conscious choices in life and in doing so, becoming the best possible version of your-self. Here, humour is mixed with profound seriousness, prompting you to pause and reflect on how you are living your life.

The author's care for you as a reader is the overarching theme of the book, which makes this encounter special on many levels. This is a book for those who want to go further in their lives.

Welcome to a world filled with exciting encounters of all kinds!"
