We are pleased to welcome them both on the program to discuss their books and how their creative lives have been impacted and grown as a result of their self-discovery work. Listen in to this amazing episode with two of the BEST people!
Colleen Miniuk, So Said The River
For 40 years, Colleen Miniuk relentlessly pursued perfection, achievement, and success without finding happiness. Then she found herself unexpectedly facing the end of her marriage. To cope with the devastating loss, she and her mother, Jacque, attempted to paddle across Lake Powell, a reservoir along the Colorado River on the Utah-Arizona border. Like life, the trip did not go as planned.
How do you find fulfillment, especially while navigating life’s hardships?
How do you become a free-flowing river when you’ve run into a dam and life tries to turn you into a reservoir?
During her raw adventures on the Colorado from Moab to Lake Mead, Colleen challenges beliefs, confronts fears, and finds the courage to live deliberately and authentically. Out of the storms and rapids, she discovers that “happily ever after” sometimes looks different than what we have been told.
So Said the River shares one woman’s riveting journey of self-discovery. It encourages readers to create their own definition of success and inspires confidence in those who have chosen, or may choose, non-traditional ways to live one’s life.

Guy Tal, Be Extraordinary
An inspiring, educational, and practical book about philosophy and art, and finding a personally meaningful life.
Teacher, philosopher, and author Guy Tal has written several best-selling books on photography, creativity, and expression. While it would be understandable to label Guy a “photographer,” it is more accurate to call him a philosopher and artist who has forged a creative life on his own terms: a life shaped by his love of nature, his interest in science and philosophy, his individualistic temperament, and his desire to create art that is expressive and significant in the ways most meaningful to him.
