Magnetically written by former CEO of the North Carolina Council of Girl Scouts and award-winning CEO for New York's Children's Council of the Arts, this uniquely engaging travel narrative describes four keys to unlocking personal and spiritual fulfillment: solitude, introspection, challenge, and commitment. Through a series of compelling travel essays and deeply thoughtful memoirs, Janice Booth draws readers into each adventure—ranging from a solo hike through Northern California to galloping across the fields of Ireland to a short stint with the Circus Arts learning the flying trapeze—and shares her secrets to a fuller life through traveling alone. Step by step, she demonstrates why leaving everything—and everyone—behind for a few days (or more!) is the best path to inner strength, confidence, and true self-knowledge.
