“It is rare to find someone who is, at once, both a keen observer and an enthusiastic participant in the journey of life. Jeanie has never met a stranger she couldn’t strike up a conversation with, an experience that didn’t provide a meaningful learning opportunity, a challenge that wasn’t imparting a needed life lesson, or a situation that didn’t leave room for a bit of humor (and sometimes a bellowing laugh). I am lucky to have had Jeanie as a central character in my life journey for over 30 years and have never met anyone like her. She is the sage, the protagonist, the hero and sometimes the jester. Her ability to understand all of these parts and her curiosity about the human spirit give her a unique perspective which shapes the methods in her book and coursework. Using her unique gift of gab, wit and introspection, Jeanie invites the reader to reflect on their successes, struggles and life choices to find a more meaningful purpose. Everyone needs a Jeanine in their life and this book offers the opportunity to use a little bit of her magic in yours.”
