We want to protect the people we love, solve their problems, and keep life running smoothly. But in trying to “fix” everything, we sometimes make things harder—for them and for ourselves. That’s where You’re Not God (That Job Is Taken) steps in. In this heartfelt, relatable, and often gently humorous guide, Scott H. Silverman—addiction recovery expert, crisis coach, and CNN Hero—shows why letting go of control can be one of the most loving choices we make. Drawing from his own journey from addiction and rock bottom to over three decades of sobriety, Scott offers a refreshing truth: you are not the answer to everyone’s problems, but you can be part of the healing. Through inspiring stories, practical insights, and simple tools, You’re Not God (That Job Is Taken) teaches you how to: Support without controlling Lead with empathy instead of perfectionism Listen more deeply to those who need you Release the pressure of trying to “do it all” Whether you’re a worried parent, a burnt-out leader, or someone feeling overwhelmed by the demands of life, this book will give you hope, perspective, and a clear path forward. It’s not about saving everyone—it’s about showing up, making space for growth, and choosing progress over perfection. Real love listens. Real change happens when we stop trying to be God—and start being fully present. About the author Scott H. Silverman is the author of "tell Me No, I Dare You!" and is an in demand leadership speaker.
