Author Tim Skillman Chronicles a LifeChanging Midlife Journey in Looped

California, USA - August 22, 2026 - Tim Skillman, first-time author, releases his memoir Looped, an intimate and adventurous account of a father, husband, and successful business consultant who walks away from a 20-year career and a life of stability in search of purpose, adventure, and self-discovery.

In Looped [https://www.amazon.com/Looped-Straits-Mackinac-Bitter-End/dp/B0HBLNBBQL/ref=], Skillman recounts a year-long, eight-thousand-mile journey spanning the Great Lakes, the Mississippi River, the Eastern Caribbean, and back through New York City and the Erie Canal. Along the way, he confronts pirates, storms, and life-altering decisions, ultimately finding love and a renewed sense of purpose. This memoir provides readers with a candid look at the anxiety and restlessness often associated with midlife and demonstrates that it is possible to break free from societal expectations and reclaim one's life.

"According to Cornell University sociologist Elaine Wethington, over 25% of Americans between the ages of 35 and 65 experience a midlife crisis," Skillman explains. "I wrote this book to share my journey of leaving it all behind, pursuing a dream, and discovering meaning, in hopes of inspiring others to take courageous steps toward the life they truly want."

Raised on Lake Angeles north of Detroit, Skillman embraced adventure and risk from a young age alongside his siblings. After 20 years of conventional success and raising a family, he fulfilled a lifelong dream of sailing across oceans, facing both physical and emotional challenges that tested his courage and resilience.

Looped [https://www.amazon.com/Looped-Straits-Mackinac-Bitter-End/dp/B0HBLNBBQL/ref=] is a story of risk, resilience, and rediscovery-a testament to the human spirit's capacity to reinvent itself at any stage of life. Readers can expect a narrative that blends adventure, self-reflection, and the search for true purpose.
