Author Bart Mahrer's New Audiobook, "It's a Silver Lining," Chronicles the Valuable Lessons the Author Has Learned from Both Mistakes and Triumphs Throughout His Life

Chandler, AZ, March 02, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Bart Mahrer, a loving father and grandfather who has been a real estate agent for thirty-seven years, has completed his new audiobook, “It's a Silver Lining”: a heartfelt look back at the author’s life, exploring the life lessons he learned from his struggles to reveal how even the hardest moments can lead to growth, wisdom, and success.

“My name is Bart Mahrer, and I have spent almost four decades as a real estate agent,” shares the author. “When times were good, they were very good. But there were times when it was anything but easy. All my time was essentially spent trying to stop a fully loaded ship from hitting the rocks. After much angst and reflection, I found that the ship needed to hit the rocks, and it did! I cannot tell you what a relief it was to make that discovery. Once that concept was established, I could then begin the rebuilding process on a stronger and more responsible foundation. Part of the rebuilding process involved going back through my life and looking for the ‘instances’ where things seemed painful or difficult and following the rest of the story to its conclusion. There was always a silver lining. So the seemingly bad usually turned out to be in my favor. I found that in virtually every instance, my life was enhanced, not degraded, by the result. How do you think that knowledge will benefit your life.”

Audiobooks are the fastest growing segment in the digital publishing industry. According to The Infinite Dial 2019, 50% of Americans age 12 and older have listened to an audiobook. This huge growth can be partly attributed to increased listening in cars, which surpassed the home as the #1 audiobook listening location in the 2019 survey. Smart speaker proliferation also bodes well for future listening growth and more mainstream listening.
