Are you answering life's call to the hero's journey? Known for her "What is your call?" series, Dr. Barbara Flood's breakthrough presentations help you find your life's path and embark on your own personal hero or heroine's journey. Whether you're searching for your place in the corporate community or for a sense of oneness and connection to something beyond yourself, her enlightening talks give you the tools and skills to take a quantum leap forward -- beyond where you've been. A Life Coach and the author of Illumination: Contemplations for an Awakened Life, Barbara speaks to leaders, entrepreneurs, and both management and employees, helping everyone find the best, most satisfying use of their talents in the corporate community.

Barbara's dynamic presentations guide you through the 5 Steps to Your Life's Journey, as you learn how to ask the right questions that lead to even more profound questions about your life's purpose and calling. In synch with the work of Jim Collins and other pioneers in the field of emotional intelligence, Barbara gives you the keys you need to move "from good to great" in both your personal and professional life. Drawing on Jungian archetypes, she shows how to gain a sense of oneness and connection with a force or power beyond yourself. You'll leave Barbara's life-changing presentations with a clear sense of your personal calling to joy, service, self-awareness, and community contribution, and a deep sense of harmony between personal humility and professional will.

Each talk is customized to suit your group's needs.

What is Your Call to Leadership?
Do you lead with confidence, clarity and intention? This talk supports the development of those qualities so that you can become a Level 5 leader, utilizing, as Jim Collins suggests, both personal humility and professional will. You'll learn to use the principles of positive psychology, supported by strength finders and other tools, to increase productivity with enthusiasm. This talk inspires and motivates managers to find their place among leaders.

What is Your Call to Aging? Creating a Living Legacy
Are you embracing life's transitions and passages with confidence, joy and enthusiasm? This talk, suited for Baby Boomers and others, reveals the 4 steps to conscious and positive aging that improve your quality of living and inspire you to create a "living legacy."

What is your Call to the Hero and Heroine's Journey?
Our world is filled with everyday heroes, and this talk shows how to view your own life as a hero or heroine's journey. Barbara guides you through the 4 steps along your personal heroic path, leading to the same discoveries that fictional heroes like Frodo made in Lord of the Rings. You'll learn why, as Dorothy remarked in The Wizard of Oz, what we're seeking is always "right there within us."

What is your call to the Joy of Service?
Are you answering your inner call to service? Learn how to uncover and utilize the unique talents and strengths you need to act on that call and gain fulfillment by contributing to your community. “The essential challenge is to transform the isolation and self-interest within our communities into a connectedness and caring for the whole,” says Peter Block. You'll learn how to see opportunities for service as you meet life's simple and profound challenges and answer the call to serve others.
