Billy Idol, Bon Jovi + a Book Club

Billy Idol showed up first. He wanted to install a pull-up bar in my bathroom. Awesome. A few weeks later, Jon Bon Jovi invited me to lunch. Awesome AND delicious.

Okay yes, these extraordinary events happened while I was asleep. And now I am publicly sharing my music groupie tendencies for your entertainment. Everyone has bizarre dreams, but I found it remarkable that two rockstars had walk-on roles in my subconscious. I don't usually remember dreams so why did Billy and Jon make solo appearances? I'm no dream expert, but felt I should pay attention.

I tried to tease out the message. Okay, they are musicians. And sure, I love music. Actually, I really REALLY love music. It is my drug of choice and I crave it the way any reasonable person craves a hot Krispy Kreme.

I kept digging. What is better than loving music? Playing music. What would be fun to play? Oh definitely the drums. I'd love to play the drums. Welllllllll...that answer knocked me out. I had pretty much forgotten about my dream to be a drummer. What?! That goal was buried deep in my mind and those big time rock and rollers reminded me it was there.

I'm not one for bold, sweeping New Year's goals. I find that the tiny ones are more likely to stick. And speaking of sticks, I'm gonna get me some.

What about you? What message is your soul sending? I invite you to listen for a whisper (or rebel yell). Stay open to subtle signs and synchronicities. You may be tempted to instantly dismiss what you see, hear or feel. Hold up - and try to tease out valuable information about your heart's desires. I promise that the messages from your intuitive mind are the ones that will generate the most joy.

Thirsty for more inspiration? Well, lean in.

Martha Beck has written a new book, Finding Your Way in a Wild New World, and I'm hosting a virtual book club to celebrate.

Oh, it's going to be wild.

Wild and FREE.

Martha Beck is smart - three Harvard degrees smart - and yet she is still hilarious. More importantly, she is sharing tools that can transform your life. And since I want to be smart and hilarious, I plan to read her book immediately and repeatedly. Won't you join me? Pour yourself some tea, wine or Rockstar and get on the horn with your tribe.

Finding Your Way in a Wild New World is a remarkable path to the most important discovery you can make: the knowledge of what you should be doing with your one wild and precious life. It's a journey to the thing that so fulfills you that, if someone told you, "It's right outside-but watch out-it could kill you!" you'd run straight toward it, through the screen door without even opening it. Life coach and bestselling author of Finding Your Own North Star Martha Beck guides you to find out how you got to where you are now and what you should do next with clear, concrete instructions on tapping into the deep, wordless knowledge you carry in your body and soul.

Who can resist all that? Hope to find you there.
