About this listen

 Layne Beachley, one of the world's most successful female surfers, and Tess Brouwer, then Virgin Australia's Head of Partnerships, met while both at the top of their game. But when an accident put Tess in need of two spinal operations, with months in hospital and no guarantees of walking again, it was Layne who offered much-needed hope. When she turned up with a bright yellow journal and told Tess to fill it with positive plans for her future, it seemed impossible. But step by step, following the same loose set of principles Layne had been using to reinvent herself after retiring from the circuit, Tess gradually learned to walk and laugh again.

They went on to create Awake Academy together and their tried-and-true method has since helped thousands wake up with a renewed sense of purpose and a deeper self-love, even - often especially - following heartbreak, loss and trauma. Now, for the first time, they share their formula on the page.

Structured by the three main pillars - Awareness, Align and Awake - the book features real stories from Layne and Tess's lives, easy-to-apply positive psychology principles, and practical exercises.

With guidance from Layne and Tess you will develop a deeper understanding of yourself while gaining skills to combat uncertainty, boost your confidence to embrace challenges and live life by design.

So what are you waiting for: detach from fear, take control and live a life you love. Personal Development Heartfelt
