Acknowledgments

This book is the natural result of many articles, blog posts, and studies I’ve done over the many years of my dream work so far. Taking that journey and documenting it would not have happened without the support of many people. First, thank you to my longtime friend and mentor Ryan Hurd, for helping me to understand dreams and their importance to my personal life. Huge thanks to my wife, Kristie, who has kept me grounded while I’ve explored my dreams and sometimes acted a little crazy. To my mother for helping me always know that dreams are important and to listen to their messages, regardless of how outlandish they seem. To my colleague and life coach Richard Guinn, for his help in teaching me the importance of self-discovery. I would like to thank my Buddhist teacher and friend Jay Feldman for being a wonderful help in accepting my shadow. I would like to thank Meg Ryan for her help in editing this book and turning it into something that could be readable and informative to all.

And importantly, thank you to the Taileaters online community. Your enthusiasm and contributions have inspired me, challenged me, and helped me to grow as a thinker, writer, and dreamer.
