Great!

I am dealing with a major change in my life and this book just gave me the hope and insight I needed to keep pushing along. She is funny and smart and just made me feel good!

Joan Lunden's Bend in the Road is very helpful

I reviewed the audio tape several times and found it to be very helpful in our approach of how we deal with issues in everyday life. While many of the stories were insightful and inspiring, the one that most stuck with me was when she talked about one of her aids on Good Morning America that told Joan that she could start her day over whenever she liked, when she felt that Joan was off to a bad start in the early morning hours when most of us are still in bed. We all deal with rough times in our lives, and it is important to learn how to best deal with those times. Joan Lunden shares some idea's that would help most anyone. I also attended an Anthony Robbins seminar a few years ago - where he had assembled numerous celebrity or high achievers to speak to the thousands assembled. Joan Lunden was by far the best speaker there. This is not only a great tape or book to review, it would be one that others would really benefit from.

Joan Lunden's A Bend In the Road is Not the End of the Road

I picked this audio book up in a discount store. It was truely what I call a diamond in the rough. Sometimes people give them selves a self evaluation and feel that they need to make changes in their lives but just don't know how or where to begin. I am at that point and thru much prayer my answer came from this book. It makes you realize that though change is a part of life and sometimes it is vital, it is how we handle it that can make the difference. I've read the reviews and I while they are all different it is how we view something as to how we will benefit from it. There are some things I did not agree with and I chose not to focus on those things. There was much that I can use to my advantage and I choose to do just that. My whole life is about to change. From a person who felt that there was no hope I can say keep looking and keep praying. Faith is the substance of things hoped for. Keep an open mind and an open heart and be ready to recieve the blessings.

A good road to take!

I recently read this book AGAIN. Joan has so many stories to inspire YOU to find the courage to make the necessary changes in your life. I'll admit I've thought the world of Joan Lunden for a long time and having worked in TV myself for many years, I enjoyed the "inside" stories. However, this book played an important role in helping me to tap into more of the courage, confidence and creativity I needed in making my own career change to authoring my first book, KIDS RULE! The Hopes and Dreams of 21st Century Children. This book gives you even more reasons to love, respect and embrace Joan Lunden and the adventurer inside you!
