Product Details


Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Despite its whimsical, touchy-feely title, This Time I Dance: Trusting the Journey of Creating the Work You Love is a down-to-earth, often funny account of author Tama J. Kieves's odyssey from high-powered corporate law to a far more fulfilling life of writing. Kieves, a Harvard Law School graduate who is now a motivational speaker, describes how she decided to leave her well-paying job her first stirrings of discontent, insecurities about finding a different career and fears of losing her overachiever identity, and finally her leap into the unknown. Based on her own experiences, she offers advice to readers on overcoming their own anxieties about switching paths.

Kieves is the tour guide you've been looking for. This book is brilliant. I simply loved every word.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of its kind!, Nov 29 2003
By A Customer
Like having a good friend at hand. This articulate, experienced, account travels with me whenever I go to contemplate. For career-changers, mid-lifers, artists, looking for new dimensions, just looking for a breath of fresh air seekers! This single text could replace the entire self-help section! Well worth the time and a place you will re-visit again and again.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Time I Dance, May 14 2003
By Dee Relyea, M.Ed (Madison, WI) - See all my reviews
Filled with quotes from her personal journal and splashes of lavender, this book is truly marvelous! Tama tackles head-on the "yes, buts...", "the I can't becauses...", and the other typical blocks to making successful life transitions. I found familiarity in her words, both my own and those of clients. Leave a job without a plan? Yes, proclaims the author, how else are you going to have the energy to follow your path if you are exhausted just getting through the workday? "You will engage the totality of your intelligence to find a means to succeed instead of to tally up and analyze the many ways you could fail."

Unlike other books I've read on the subject of:" finding and doing the work you love", this one encourages the reader to simply trust their inspired yearnings and yield to their inner knowing. Rather than follow a step-by-step process (like so many self help books recommend) Tama suggests you allow yourself time to let the path unfold before you. "..we only tend to find our mission once we take an intermission from the work life that doesn't work." As one who took an "intermission" to pursue my dreams, this book totally re-affirms my path. I recommend it to anyone who has felt "inklings" that there is a way to realize authentic, meaningful work.

5.0 out of 5 stars She Really Inspires Me, Feb 25 2003
By Stacy Clark (Boulder, CO United States) - See all my reviews
This Time I Dance! is absolutely inspirational.

It is not a how-to, but I learned a *lot* about How To. I thought I had read all there was to read about how to do what I love for a living and earn what I deserve and live long and prosper. I have read maybe 25 books or more on the subject.

Tama simply tells her own story in a way that inspires me to live *my* story. Listening to her story makes me feel that I can do this, too. It was obviously written with much love and caring.
