I Don't Know How You Do It

Changing Your Life's Course with Vickie Leuenberger


Listen Later

Vickie Leuenberger went on a 2-week vacation and found her life's dream.  She fell in love with life on the water, and fell in love with who she was on the water.  Vickie returned home and spent four years learning about sailing, diesel mechanics, astronomy, and so much more so she could turn her dream into a plan. Then she quit her job, gave up her home, bought a small sailboat and set out for the sea.

 Vickie's courage and determination are tested over and over -- when her engine breaks, when she dislocates her shoulder, when her toilet sinks in the ocean. Vickie faces unexpected obstacles and the fear of not being good enough for her boat.

You will learn:
1. What it's like to give up everything and move for a life of adventure? 
2. How to make a big life change, even if it's scary. 
3. What to do when you're feeling stuck.
