Rating:  Summary: Wisdom Speaks Review: "Living Your Best Life" is a practical guide on discovering what you want while presenting the skills it will take to get it. The foundation of the book is the belief that each person has their own innate wisdom that can be used as a resource. Once you have tapped into that resource, a change in attitute and perspective can help you create the life your wise self desires.I purchased this book as an informational companion to my role as a coaching client. As someone in the midst of many personal and professional decisions, I found the client success examples illustrating each idea to be energizing and inspiring. Fortgang's perspective is a breath of fresh air in a world that tells you to push for your goals. Fortgang supports allowing your innate wisdom to pull you toward your passion and purpose. "Living Your Best Life" is not about making lists, or even making plans. It is about knowing what you really want in life, instead of what you think you can have. It is about being who you are so you can do what you are meant to do in order to live your best life.

Rating:  Summary: If I could I wouldn't give a star Review: I really tried to like this book. One because I had spent money on it and two because I had really enjoyed the books by Cheryl Richardson. This book is no where near those of Cheryl Ruchardson. I totally got lost and didn't feel like I could help myself.
Rating:  Summary: Living Your Best Life Review: I recommend this book to all of my coaching clients, friends and family! It is a book that if used to its fullest (including the processing work) can truly change your life! I have seen significant changes in my life and my clients' lives! Beginning to see and feel the WHO of who you are instead of the what that you do, your life changes. If you're ready to do the work, this is THE tool for you.
Rating:  Summary: Clarity comes in book form Review: I've never read these self help books but Laura Berman Fortgang has given me a whole new outlook on life. This book is a godsend! A book to refer to as you go through life. Laura is the coach for the future!!
Rating:  Summary: A book full of golden nuggets!! Review: I've read other books by Life Coaches and none of them compare to the wisdom and power of Laura's book. She gets right to the heart of the matter without asking you to spend tons of time in "information gathering" mode. Her process is clear, succinct and to the point. The excercises are real-life, straight forward and very effective. If you are looking for a book where you'll see results without being overwhelmed by the volume of work you need to do, "Living Your Best Life" is a must have book.
Rating:  Summary: An Extraordinary Guide to Personal Empowerment Review: If you are looking to take your life or your business to the next level, Laura Berman Fortgang clearly shows you how to create your own roadmap to get there. This extraodinary guide provides a process for tapping into your own wisdom using empowering "Wisdom Access Questions." My personal favorites are: "How have people used you?" and "Who have you been for them?" -- questions that help determine who we are and what we are built for. Strategies, tools and techniques for creating success (in your own terms) and living a life that is passionate and purposeful, are also provided in this brilliant book. Laura is truly a guru in the world of coaching, and she shares her considerable wisdom and coaching experience in this wonderful book.
Rating:  Summary: A resource that will last a lifetime Review: Laura is truly a writer and coach for the 21st century. She is a refreshingly frank and honest voice who encourages us to ask (and answer) the tough questions that will move us from where we are to where we want to be. Her strategies are realistic, yet challenging. Those who are willing to do the work outlined in each chapter will change their lives. I dog-eared at least 30 pages in this book and will turn to it again and again for inspiration.
