In 2001 I was going through a divorce and was an executive for a large management consultancy when Enron and WorldCom imploded which slowed and changed business to consultancies. As a result, I was let go and free to find a new challenge while at the same time, navigating the turbulence of a divorce. I was checking my mailbox one day and found a postcard for a "Coaching School" addressed to my next door neighbour. The fact that it was a postcard allowed me to read it and the concept intrigued me so after delivering the postcard to my neighbor, I decided to look more into coaching. I didn't know then but certainly realized later, that the postcard was meant for me to see. After speaking to many coaching schools, one of my last calls was to iPEC. I actually reached Dr Bruce Schneider the founder and President and we spoke for a while about his views on coaching and the approach his school took. It felt right and so I went for it not knowing what (if anything) I'd do with it but more for a personal journey given all the changes I was in the midst of. The class took 7 months to complete and was the most amazing learning I had ever gone through. It was cathartic and caused a huge shift in the way I thought and subsequently felt about almost everything. The training was geared towards being in the moment and to suspend the need to react to or judge events. I speak about these things in this book in more detail and believe these concepts are critical to finding personal freedom and happiness in one's life. The purpose of this book is to share the many insights and valuable life lessons I have learned along the way of being a seeker of truth and a student of life
