FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Zolly House Press Celebrates the Pre-Order Release of You Are Just Beginning: A Journey Into Leadership by Jim Ridgway
[City, State] — [Date] — Zolly House Press is excited to announce that retired U.S. Navy aviator and leadership expert Jim Ridgway’s new book, You Are Just Beginning: A Journey Into Leadership, is now available for pre-order.
For Ridgway, leadership has never been about titles or positions—it’s about growth, resilience, and the willingness to start fresh no matter where you are in life. In his new book, he draws on 23 years of service in the U.S. Navy, including deployments around the world and command of multiple units, as well as a decade of leadership in business and emergency management. The result is an inspiring guide that’s both deeply personal and refreshingly practical.
“Leadership is not a finish line you cross—it’s a journey you choose to begin every day,” says Ridgway. “This book is for anyone ready to take that first step, or the next one.”
You Are Just Beginning weaves together stories, wisdom, and lessons learned in high-stakes environments, showing readers that true leadership is about courage, humility, and service.
“At Zolly House Press, we’re proud to bring Jim’s voice to the world,” said Zolly House co-founder Lyle Smith. “This project captures what we value most: authentic stories that inspire people to lead, live, and grow with purpose.”
✨ You Are Just Beginning: A Journey Into Leadership is now available for pre-order, with official release on September 30, 2025.
