  Spirit Traffic - A Mother's...

  Spirit Traffic recounts how, at the age of 50, the author learned to ride a motorcycle, overcame the terror of navigating her steep dirt driveway in Vermont, and, three days after her son’s college graduation, set off with him and her yoga-teacher husband (his stepdad) on a 10,000-mile two-wheel adventure that took them all into uncharted territory—both as novice riders, and as a family. As if in the saddle of her dual-sport BMW, the reader will experience the good, the bad, and the heartbreak of her journey as a soon-to-be-empty-nester grappling with impermanence, sexuality, hot flashes, high winds, and tailgating tour buses.  
  Spirit Traffic is at once a colorful travelogue of a bucket-list bikers’ route across America and an unflinching memoir of a middle-aged mom conquering her fears (on and off the bike), unpacking a complicated childhood with an addict father and stoic mother, and ultimately, learning to let go of her only child. (Think Blue Highways meets Zen & The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance meets Operating Instructions meets Wild.) 
  With its first-person accounts of legendary rides such as the Burr Trail, Hell’s Backbone Road, and the Pacific Coast Highway, Spirit Traffic will find a ready audience among bikers. But as a midlife memoir, Spirit Traffic will also resonate for anyone who is navigating the departure of a child, negotiating the dynamic tensions of family, or simply yearning for life’s next adventure.

  I. B. P. - Inevitable Breaking Point 
  Picture your existence as a sequence of traffic lights—each experience a crossroad. An I. B. P. - An Inevitable Breaking Point. A stage in every development must be reached before venturing on to the next. Just as drivers pause to evaluate their surroundings, we too encounter crucial moments in life that demand attention. The intertwining personal narratives akin to the universal act of halting at red lights reveal the subconscious cues to navigate life's turns, urging readers to embrace their distinct breaking points, guiding them to navigate their paths consciously. 
  Motivation 
  Why do we cling to motivation? In a world painted in shades of darkness, envision dawn's first light and take a deep dive while asking yourself why motivation must be part of our equation for change. Challenge the belief that excitement is a prerequisite for action. Reflect on patterns, recognizing pivotal moments before they consume you. Understand that motivation fades, but conscious action transcends, steering you toward your Inevitable Breaking Point. 
  Warrior or Worrier 
  Every scene in life presents a choice: to be a warrior or a worrier. To navigate this choice, look within, and discern your default mode. Reflect on your habits, transform them into open-ended questions, and explore your readiness for change. Strategize to embrace discomfort and learn how to separate pain from action by updating your approach based on self-assessment. Recognize the need to adjust your trajectory by calculating the balance needed for the right amount of aggression and calmness for which a situation requires and sometimes even demands. 
  Consciousness 
  In shared spaces, collective consciousness affects our behavior. Body language communicates unspoken truths, revealing hidden emotions. By practicing self-awareness you’ll learn how to anticipate a reaction aiding in decision-making as the subconscious is often left on autopilot as our inner truth resides in moments
