When Megan Gebhart graduated college in 2011, she knew she couldn’t resign herself to life at an aimless 9-to-5 job climbing the corporate ladder. So instead, she challenged herself to have a single cup of coffee with a different person every week for a year to see what lessons she could learn about life and careers. What started out as a strange, unconventional, and slightly awkward experiment soon transformed into a year filled with adventure, hardship, courage, and personal growth. Whether she’s grabbing a grande coffee with a former Starbucks’ Vice President, discussing recess politics with a first grader, or debating talent with the co-founder of Apple, Megan’s enthusiasm and empathy coax the best advice from every walk of life. As a whole, 52 Cups of Coffee chronicles one young woman’s daring and heartfelt first foray into life after college. Separately, each cup delivers a daily dose of inspiration-a perfect pairing for a morning cup of joe.
