3 – Interactive tools to help you track your personal D.R.E.A.M. progress online
4 – An easy way to connect with others who are committed to following the 5 D.R.E.A.M. steps (Might be a good idea to accomplish this with a forum on the site)

I love the idea of the local LWYL support group. I think there would need to be some type of expert or mentor leading it though.
I’m so glad that you have developed the books and the site. I read A Trip to the Beach years ago when it first came out. It was on the Recommends shelf at Barnes and Noble and I couldn’t put it down. I’ve actually read it twice.
Enjoy your weekend!

Your ratings are extremely helpful. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts. Stay tuned for updates!

How do I find what I want to do “when I grow up?” How do I know what to do in the next stage/journey of my life? After 27 years in corporate America — where it has sucked me dry of my energy, enthusiasm and zest for life — there’s nothing left. And now I have no idea what I want to do.
Just read your book and loved it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Here is my list of what I’d like to see:
- Interactive tools to help you track your personal D.R.E.A.M. progress online
- An easy way to connect with others who are committed to following the 5 D.R.E.A.M. steps
- A guidebook for establishing a local LWYL support group in your area
- An online Changing Your Course Mentorship Program
- D.R.E.A.M. workbook
- Private Coaching Program
- Advice and information from other people who live what they love
Stay tuned for updates. We’re working on some of these things right now. The more feedback we get, the easier it will be to provide as many helpful tools and services as possible. If you have any friends who might like to join in the conversation, please feel free to send them a link. Thanks for your input!
thank you so much for sharing your story and being so open to helping others.I am on my second book of yours and I feel the beginning of a transformation.
I think for me a lot of what you have listed above sounds great…in particular
- An online Changing Your Course Mentorship Program and Private Coaching Program. This would help with specific questions and obstacles.
I think reading advice and information from other people who live what they love would be helpful too in realizing that it is actually possible in all circumstances.
Also, I know I could use some kind of concrete suggestions/direction on finding options for careers. Help for researching and locating the less obvious options. Help to broaden my thinking as far as turning a passion into a business or career. Maybe more information on the practical side of it.
thank you!

Pam, thanks for your suggestions! We’re working on a plan to provide you and others with as much practical information as possible. It may take us a little while but that’s only because we want to make sure we do it to the best of our ability. As far as offering concrete suggestions about finding creative career options, we’ll try to address that subject in an upcoming blog entry. Thanks again!
I just received five of your Changing Your Course books, and have two couples, two singles and myself that are starting our journey. Thank you for your personal note! I am just to step two but want to say, I can already see how things can change. I must admit though, I still have some negative thoughts and will be using my “flash” cards several times a day. I like many of the ideas you have for additional ways to get to where we want to be. I would love An online Changing Your Course Mentorship Program, a D.R.E.A.M. workbook and a Private Coaching Program. An easy way to connect with others seems like it would be very helpful too. We received the books and your note, just after the July 3rd event. Hopefully there will be more.
Thank you! Hope we can keep in touch.
Hugs,
Julie
Thanks for your enthusiasm, Julie. We love the fact that you’ve formed your own “Live What You Love” support group. We’re also working on some of your suggestions. In the meantime, we’re looking into the possibility of another live chat so stay tuned for updates. Thanks again and please keep us posted on your progress. We’d love to hear more about what you and your friends are discussing and have no doubt that your thoughts, questions and experiences would be helpful to others as well.
