Sinossi
What if you achieved the life you once dreamed about—only to discover that somewhere along the way, you stopped feeling it?
Invisible Fence is a deeply personal memoir about survival, ambition, success, love, loss, and the search for meaning.
Born during the Lebanese Civil War, Mark H. Awad grew up surrounded by uncertainty before immigrating to America with little more than determination and the hope of building a better life.
He learned English. He pursued an education. He earned advanced degrees. He built a career in automotive sales, entered real estate development, became an entrepreneur, traveled the world, took risks, survived setbacks, and continued pushing toward the next goal.
From the outside, it looked like the American Dream.
But success came with a cost he didn't recognize while he was paying it.
In the relentless pursuit of the next deal, the next accomplishment, and the next version of success, Mark slowly became disconnected from the things no amount of money could replace—family, relationships, love, time, and ultimately himself.
He had become numb.
Not only to pain, but to joy.
Not only to loss, but to the moments that make life worth living.
Through stories of war, immigration, entrepreneurship, relationships, heartbreak, world travel, financial setbacks, personal loss, and unexpected second chances, Mark looks back at the experiences that shaped him—and the invisible beliefs that kept pushing him forward even when he no longer knew what he was running toward.
The deaths of people he loved forced him to confront something ambition could never solve:
Time does not negotiate.
Money can be earned again. Businesses can be rebuilt. Deals can be replaced. Careers can change.
But some dinners never happen again.
Some conversations cannot be repeated.
Some people leave before we realize how much we still needed to tell them.
And some opportunities disappear simply because we assumed there would always be more time.
Eventually, Mark was forced to ask the question many of us avoid until life asks it for us:
What is the point of building a successful life if you become too numb to experience it?
Invisible Fence is not a story about abandoning ambition.
It is about understanding what ambition is for.
It is about recognizing the invisible fences built from fear, expectations, money, status, failure, regret, and the stories we inherit about what a successful life is supposed to look like.
And it is about discovering that sometimes the greatest success is not reaching the next destination.
It is waking up before the people, moments, and life you were working so hard for are gone.

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. WHAT IF THE WALL THAT SAVED YOUR LIFE ALSO KEPT LOVE OUT?Mark H. Awad spent his childhood surrounded by shelling, gunfire, death, and uncertainty during the war in Lebanon.To survive, he learned not to feel.That emotional distance became a source of strength. It allowed him to immigrate to America, face uncertainty without fear, build businesses, travel the world, and pursue opportunities others considered impossible.But survival came with a hidden cost.Behind the achievement was a man who struggled to connect, trust, and recognize love-even when it was standing directly in front of him.Then he met Kate.Through her patience, wisdom, and ordinary acts of care, she reached a part of him that war had buried. For the first time in years, his house felt like a home. His carefully protected life began to open.But feeling love and knowing how to accept it are not the same thing.By the time Mark understood what Kate had awakened inside him, she was gone.Beyond Numb is a deeply personal memoir about war, survival, loneliness, regret, and the woman who taught one man that protecting yourself from pain can also protect you from happiness.Some people survive by building walls.Living begins when they find the courage to open them.
