Taking the Cape Off
A conversation about leadership, identity, and the weight you were never meant to carry alone.
The Book That Started the Conversation
Taking the Cape Off is part memoir, part leadership framework. Damon Lester built a $45M enterprise, served as President of a national organization for over 15 years, and learned the hard way what happens when a leader carries more than they were ever meant to hold.
This book is not motivation. It is the conversation most leaders never get to have.
Damon Lester built a $45M automotive enterprise, led a national organization for over 15 years, and was inducted into The HistoryMakers with his legacy archived in the Library of Congress. He was also exhausted. Not because he stopped caring.
Because he never did.
Taking the Cape Off is the book he had to write. The one that tells the truth about what it costs to carry everyone else's weight and what happens when you finally decide to put it down.
