Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. — Izaak Walton

For those of you familiar with Joseph Campbell’s “Hero’s Journey”, this diagram will look familiar. For those that have not heard of this, I bet you have and just haven’t realized it. It is the storyline for every fairy tail, action movie, and coming of age scenario the world throws our way. Campbell reminds us that life is a journey not a destination. Midlife is the “Threshold” portion of the journey where you have set sail and are starting to lose sight of the shore line. You are adrift, surrounded only by ocean and sky; no land visible behind you nor in front of you. Welcome to the “Unknown”.
This is where I come in. As your health coach I will be with you during the ominous part of the journey, navigating you through the “challenges and temptations”. This is your journey; you are steering the boat. I am supporting you as you overcome the “Abyss” and I remind you of your goal so that you stay the course towards “Transformation”.
