homey & "woo woo"

diane ladd writes with a homeyness that feels like you're sitting with your favorite eccentric aunt. some may be put off by the new agey stuff, but they usually are:) personally having experienced some of what ms. ladd writes about this was not an issue for me. this is a joyous, quick read.

Spiraling through the school of life

This is a very down to earth , honest book. It will make you feel that you have known diane Ladd all of her life, and that you are chatting with her at the kitchen table. It is uplifting, empowering and and a wonderful example of what you can do and apply to your own life situations. A great addition to your personal library.

Steven E. Anderson

This is not a typical, photo filled, glitzy biography of a renowned actress. This is a story of the heart. It is a courageous, honest, intimate self disclosure from Diane Ladd. Diane has a way to quickly connect you to each person's soul. I have known Diane Ladd for about 10 years as a client, student and friend. As I read this book I laughed and cried, easily hearing and seeing her in front of me telling these stories. Healing is passed down through story telling. Diane does it all here. What a gift she has given for us all to enjoy. Her ups and downs are expressed here, her life's learning wisdom is shared. But more importantly her compassionate heart is tenderly written. Diane, in her words, "tithes" my healing services to her friends, who are willing to receive. It was a delight to learn more about Diane's friends whom I have given long distance sessions, but never met in person. This book gave me another great connection with them. Diane is also quick to "jump my bones" (pg 149) when I forget, or purposely don't charge her for my work. Read this book! Get to know this actress and experience her passion for life and all that life has brought to Diane Ladd. Thank you, Diane, for putting this into print. Steve Anderson, RN Certified Holistic Nurse

A road map of an incredible heart

This book is a must read for anyone interested in improving the quality of their life, and having a great time doing it. Touching and heartfelt, Ms Ladd is an amazing lady who has steered herself through an incredible life of ups and downs (her spiral) and all that fame and fortune can bring AND take away. It is an enchanting, wonderfully written autobiography whose wisdom left me with renewed hope and tools to better my own life.
