"WHERE TO?" is a Compelling Journey

Jennifer Monahan wrote a thought-provoking and fascinating account of her journey to become a shamanic healer in her 2016 memoir, This Trip Will Change Your Life. She shares the next chapter of her incredible story in her new book, WHERE TO? How I Shed My Baggage and Learned To Live Free. Jennifer’s personal odyssey continues as she makes the courageous decision to leave her successful job in the corporate arena. She shifts her focus and follows her heart in a quest for personal and spiritual rebirth. This new chapter of her story involves travel to sacred sites in places such as Japan and Cambodia, on a self-described “global walkabout.” She opens up her soul to the wonders and gifts our world has to offer her, and truly accepts the messages the universe is sending to her soul with an open heart.

As Jennifer re-invents herself and renews her spirit, she makes plans to live in Guatemala for a few months while writing her new book. Inspired by the beauty and positive energy she finds there, Jennifer ultimately decides to stay in Guatemala for an extended period. Not only does she have some life-changing moments working with local shamans and spiritual guides, she forges meaningful personal relationships with her neighbors and fellow residents. As readers, we get to experience Jennifer’s awakening to a more authentic style of living. We share the joy she feels as she immerses herself in the beauty of Guatemalan culture, and this portion of the book provides some truly enjoyable and enthralling moments.

But Jennifer’s journey is not without its difficulties. As the title of the book suggests, she needs to “shed her baggage” both literally and figuratively. There are some roadblocks obstructing her development, in the form of difficult events in her life from the past, which are still affecting her. She needed to make peace with these negative experiences and move beyond them, before attaining true balance and harmony in her life. Jennifer candidly conveys these powerful, reflective and transformative moments in the book’s most emotional and moving passages. I know this part of her story will strongly resonate with anyone who’s had to overcome adversity in their own lives.

WHERE TO? How I Shed My Baggage and Learned To Live Free is a beautiful, engaging and insightful book. What you realize after reading this amazing story is that Jennifer’s journey isn’t over yet. Her lovingly written account of her adventures just might empower you to reflect on your own life experiences, and start your own journey of discovery. WHERE TO? How I Shed My Baggage and Learned To Live Free is now available on Amazon, in both print and digital formats. Jennifer's first book is also available there for purchase.
