I have your book and would love to hear you speak in person. Are you ever going to be in Michigan - the Detroit metro area? Is there a way to hear you via webcast or streamlink? I am a psychologist and acknowledge how a survival situation reveals much about a person’s values, unresolved issues, attitudes, character, etc. You must see a movie called “The Edge” with Alec Baldwin and Anthony Hopkins. A survival situation, involving a plane crash in the wilds of Alaska and a man eating bear, reveals the personality traits that help one character survive and lead to the avoidable death of the other. Another good book about survival consciousness, by Laurence Gonzales, is called Deep Survival. He also examines why some people survive in a disaster while so many others die. Good for you! - in finding your niche and helping so many others to rethink their lives. Helen
