SYNOPSIS:
For most of his life, Vincent Massey was surviving.
Surviving the streets.
Surviving addiction.
Surviving prison.
Surviving pain he didn't yet have words for.
In What a Change: From Survival to Living, Vincent tells the unfiltered story of a man shaped by abuse, violence, illiteracy, incarceration, and a life-altering injury-yet transformed through accountability, faith, and radical honesty with himself.
This memoir does not offer quick fixes or polished inspiration. Instead, it confronts the internal work required to break generational cycles of pain. Through deeply personal reflection, Vincent reveals how healing begins when a man stops running, tells the truth about his life, and chooses responsibility over excuses.
Written for anyone standing at the edge of a hard decision, this book is proof that survival does not have to be the end of the story.
Change is possible. But it costs truth.
