I am obsessed with creating a life that I love. A bad ass, ridiculously fun life, built around service and greatness. I want to surf when the waves are good and work hard at projects I am passionate about. I have spent that last 10 years creating my Coconut Wireless Life. You can too. I wrote everything down! I’ll help you stop all the busy work, and focus on the right work. Everyone has it in them, we all just need some tools and a map to help lay it out. Your ridiculously good life is not far off, so lets get to work!

The people and resources you are looking for are all around. But to get connected, the work must come from the inside out. When you adapt first, everything else will follow. This light-hearted, motivational book will unveil a four-part equation to create your Coconut Wireless Life. You’ll learn some “real wisdom gems,”

including how to show up, do less, be unrealistic, trust your TUG, be a life raft, find your masterminds and embrace the flow. You’ll find write-in space to personalize your path and more than 60 supersized nuggets of knowledge to continue your awakening, from books you can’t afford to skip, music you need in your life, websites to poke around on, and creative O.P.D.s (Opportunities for Personal Development or mini challenges).  

This high-octane, meaningful read is perfect for the millennial student, new graduates, young professionals, parents, educators, mentors or anyone soul searching to create a life on purpose.

“It is a practical, funny, well-written, zen, quirky, bizarre and obviously very thoughtful guide to building the life you want…kind of somewhere between “Think and Grow Rich” and “Fu— It”. (Those are two of my favorite books. This may now be one of the top three). Definitely. Definitely. Definitely give this a read.
