    " I very much enjoyed listening to Elizabeth Gilbert, her thoughts on inspiration are refreshing, down to earth and, yes, inspiring ; ), even for someone who has been "at it" for a while. It concentrates more on the subject of writing, but I can translate her thoughts for visual work. I especially like her voice too, a criteria I take more and more into consideration before purchasing an audiobook. "

    " Been a fan of Liz Gilbert since I discovered her, like most of the world, with Eat Pray Love...The book touched me, as did this one. Starting on my own newly discovered path of creativeness, unexplored in the past, her words ring true. I do not write, I have discovered other crafting talents, and Liz's words and advice were encouraging and very conforting! Definitely a good listen if you have a little idea in the back of your head that you have been ignoring, for whatever reason...most helpful!! "

    " I really liked Elizabeth's book overall. There were a few chapters where I was thinking, "ok, that is your opinion and interpretation. I don't feel the same way". However, I think she has really good takes on what it means to co-create and manifest. I especially loved the chapter where she speaks on fear being in the backseat of every "road trip" you take. You have to read the book to get what I'm saying. All in all, this was a great audiobook to listen to on my long commutes. I recommend to anyone interested in discovering and living their dreams. "
