On the 15th of March 2016 Dutchman Wiebe Wakker (December 1986) left Amsterdam with his electric ‘Blue Bandit’ car as part of his project ‘Plug Me In’. Without money in his pocket it seemed like a challenging task to reach Sydney, his ultimate destination, on the other side of the world. Wiebe asked help from the crowd; on his website plugmeinproject.com people could select their location on a map and support Wiebe by offering him a meal, place to sleep or electricity for his car. Thousands of people signed up and along the way these offers would determine the route of Wiebe’s record-breaking journey. He drove from Amsterdam to Italy to turn around and drive all the way to the Northcape. Via the eastern parts of Europe he continued southwards to Turkey and thereafter he crossed the Middle-East, India and Southeast Asia. With every kilometer travelled his message gains more strength: the lone ranger in the Blue Bandit is the living proof that sustainable mobility is possible.

Kelly Donahue, PhD is a health psychologis and mind-body coach. She has over a decade of experience in mind-body health as a practitioner, researcher, author, consultant, speaker, and trainer. Her work has been featured in Health Psychology, TheraNest, Integrative Medicine, Explore: The Journal of Science and Healing, and more. She’s used the knowledge from her training and practice to recover from the ill-effects of people-pleasing, striving, and the need to achieve and loves helping others do the same. Kelly is passionate about empowering others to practice essential self-care strategies that nourish the body and mind. Her training in behavioral medicine and clinical psychology provided her with the framework to help clients create real, lasting change; however, she soon realized that psychology’s focus on the past and fitting people into a diagnosis box didn’t feel right. She didn’t want to focus on disease and helping people to just get by; she wanted to help people grow and thrive! The missing puzzle pieces were 1) a connection to the body and 2) optimizing the present for a better future. After additional training in mind-body skills at the Benson-Henry Institute, the Center for Mind Body Medicine, and Mindvalley University, the puzzle was complete. Kelly has lived the power of the mind-body connection and learned the necessity of self-care. Her individual clients include entrepreneurs, executives, working moms, physicians and other health care providers, and empty-nesters ready to overcome overwhelm and regain their health and purpose in life. Her mission is to share that knowledge and translate the insight to action (often the missing step) to help over-stressed women and men thrive and reach their personal, professional, and health goals. Kelly has worked for the military in public health designing and delivering trainings on mental health across the country. Her work as a psychologist led her to provide resiliency training to the military. Her book, Everyday Self-Care: Your Proven Holistic Guide to Feeling Better, was released earlier this year. The book began as a simple handout to help her clients develop foundational self-care tools. The handout quickly grew to a book as she realized the need to reach people beyond those who were able to sit on her couch or on the other side of her computer's video camera. She currently resides in Maryland and loves walking in nature, chasing after her son, and laughing every day.

Guy with only 10 years left to live changes his fate. Logan Sneed went from high school athlete and college freshman to a stage IV glioblastoma patient overnight. (That's terminal brain cancer, for those of us who aren't doctors). Doctors told him he wouldn't survive his diagnosis, and even if he did, he'd never have the quality of life he wanted. Logan refused to believe that. Each time someone told Logan he couldn’t do something, he used it as fuel to prove them wrong. Today, Logan is a fitness entrepreneur making a six-figure income, in remission, and inspiring the world with his story of beating the odds. In his new book, Thank You, Cancer (out December 3rd and became Amazon’s #1 Best Seller in multiple categories), Logan challenges us to thank the obstacles in our way. In the book, he asks, "could you write a letter to your weight, your debt, or your business? Could you thank it for making you grow? Can you find room to become happier, to enjoy the present, and to face the fear and doubt that has held you back?" By thanking our obstacles, Logan says, we can become CEO of our lives, and the best-version of ourselves.
