The Compost File: Stories for the Striver in Us All
From the ties that anchor us, to the have-to/get-to junctures that scaffold our days, to the shoulder-brush interactions that shape our perspectives, the stories in The Compost File alert us to what we might be missing while we’re looking the other way.
Sherri Coale sees what many miss and is willing to dive out of bounds to save a moment so that others can see it as well. She sets the stage, tells the story, and then creates the space for it to land where and how it will.
Coale’s bite-sized nuggets, told with intimate detail, provide a thought provoking exploration into the human condition. They speak to the challenges and wonders of parenthood, the agony and euphoria of competition, the rewards and sacrifices of leadership, and many other seeming dichotomies that are really siblings at heart.

Rooted to Rise: The Redwood Legacies of Life-Anchoring People
Every story starts somewhere—with the people and places that leave an imprint on us like fossils.
Rooted to Rise is a deeply personal collection of essays about the individuals who shape us—mentors, family, teammates, and even strangers. Some of the people in these pages have achieved extraordinary success; others have lived quiet, uncelebrated lives. But all have left a mark.
This is not a book about accomplishments. It’s a book about identity—about how the intersections of our lives define who we become. Through these heartfelt and vivid narratives, Coale reminds us that we all have "our people," and their impact ripples through us in ways we may not always recognize.
Whether you see yourself in these stories or find yourself remembering the people who shaped you, Rooted to Rise is a tribute to the connections that make us who we are.
