Marking the 5th anniversary of the COVID-19 pandemic, Atlanta author Amy Comeau offers a message of hope with her book, “Every Storm Runs Out of Rain.” This award-winning book, recipient of the 2024 Goody Business Book Award for Leadership-Inspiration, shares Comeau's personal diary entries and leadership lessons learned while guiding her team at Emory Healthcare as Vice-President through the global crisis, beautifully illustrating the pandemic's lasting impact on the world.
