At first glance, you might assume that Lyle McKeany is just an average dad who just so happens to be a fantastic writer. Upon further inspection, you'll find little gems in his writing that expose you to the highs of fatherhood and seeing his daughter grow up, while also seeing the arduous tasks involved in raising a daughter with cerebral palsy. You'll learn about how he's been leaning into his creative juices once again, but with a keyboard, not a bass guitar. After a roughly twenty-year (a little under) hiatus of performing in front of thousands of people with his band, Pressure 4-5, Lyle has returned but this time through a screen and with a few more stories to tell. A career path that has had him working as a golf pro, professional musician, poker player, startup founder, growth marketer, and eventually writer, Lyle's seen quite a bit. 

In this episode, we discuss his background, how writing for his book is different than for his band, and how 9/11 impacted the trajectory of Pressure 4-5.
