What do you do when everything you’ve built suddenly falls apart?
For Bill Bailey—a U.S. Army veteran, husband, and entrepreneur—the answer was to rebuild from the inside out.
This Is My New Foundation is a deeply personal memoir that traces Bill’s journey through childhood trauma, military service, personal loss, and spiritual awakening. From the streets of Detroit to military posts around the world, William lived a life defined by discipline, loyalty, and service. But when the COVID-19 pandemic brought his business to a halt and claimed the life of his brother—his closest friend—Bill found himself confronting grief, depression, and the painful remnants of a past he thought he had outrun.
What followed was not a breakdown, but a breakthrough.
With raw honesty and unwavering faith, Bill shares how hitting rock bottom became the beginning of something sacred—a rediscovery of purpose, identity, and divine guidance. Through moments of quiet reflection, unexpected blessings, and acts of generosity, he built a new life rooted not in success or status, but in authenticity and healing.
More than a memoir, This Is My New Foundation is a testimony for anyone who has ever felt lost, broken, or forgotten. It’s a reminder that even in the darkest hours, there is light. That grace still finds us. And that our greatest rebuilding often begins where everything else ends.
