Not just another inspirational book, the message of {An} Unsinkable Soul book is "You can transcend this and here is HOW others have done it." There is a transparency that is apparent, even with the brevity that precludes extensive instructions, a road map is provided in each instance. No matter what your personal challenge, a trail has been provided and the pathway lighted for you. A loved one's passing, an abusive complicated relationship that fear won't allow you leave, belief systems that have created a chaotic over-all life, health challenges of your own or your loved ones that brings you to your knees, or just finding your authentic self when you are so lost you don't know what to do next. The authors have lain bare their very souls to provide you with the methods they utilized for climbing out of the depths and finding their inner strength and connection to the Divine. From those who have been there to those of you who ARE there now, there IS hope. You can transcend your situation and this book will detail how. As Anais Nin stated, "And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." Transcending challenges by utilizing her own methods is not new to co-author Diane Floerchinger, whose challenge in life was her life. She attracted people, circumstances and lack of money as tangible proof her beliefs were accurate. There was always something worse around the corner. Everyone was out to get her. Struggling with obesity from childhood on, contributed to her staying safe and silent. Her first real relationship left her living in a car. Future toxic relationships found her being a chameleon in order to be accepted. When life felt as if it could not get any worse and she could not possibly hate herself or the world more; something snapped. Once she woke from the nightmare, she began a healing journey. With the first step of writing in a daily journal, she began finding her way out of her jungle in the Land of the Lost, step by step. Repeatedly stumbling and learning to combat the vines of fear that wrapped around her and tugged her back in to experience more horror. Yet, always getting back on the trail. Utilizing methods she learned and invented, she began dissolving two key negative beliefs; that silent meant safe and that of being a victim of life. She began following a life map based on enthusiasm and inspiration and learned to stop running from who she was. In the process, she created a series of metamorphoses that led to a complete mind, body and spirit transformation. Following her heart, she began a writing career, creating and facilitating programs that teach others what she learned for their own personal growth and happiness; uncovering their inner self, finding their voice, speaking out and being heard, and creating and following individualized life maps that cut a pathway to just what they love. She welcomes the opportunity to speak about the experience her life has provided and enjoys responding to every contact.
