Publisher's summary

Is it possible for a news anchor to become a professional athlete? Can a disheartened architect build a new career as a luxury car designer? They can, and they have, says Martha Beck, whose advice is sought each month by over two million readers in O: The Oprah Magazine. Now, on Follow Your North Star, she teaches you how to recognize the cues from within that will tell you whether your job, relationship, and environment (even your daily schedule), are leading you in the right direction. "Just as a compass needle always turns towards true north, you already know how to find the right life," she says. Join Beck to learn more about:

  • How to recognize when sabotaging your own success is really an expression of your inner wisdom
  • Too many unavoidable tasks bogging you down? Reinvent your daily routine to maximize your "life momentum"
  • How to use your own "internal navigation system" to chart a course toward freedom and fulfillment
  • Eagle vision/mouse vision: why both perspectives are crucial to clarify your dreams, and more

With visualizations, meditations, and relevant insights, Martha Beck guides you step-by-step through the process of changing the life you have now into one that will move you to the "true north" you are meant to travel.

This book helped change my life!

Finally I broke through! I cannot send enough love to Martha Beck for writing this book. It explained to me not only the stage I am (was) in but why I was feeling what I was feeling, and why things seemed way harder then they should be. The tools she offers here are life changing and absolutely amazing.

If you feel stuck or unsure about where you are going or working extremely hard but not getting anywhere this book will help you!

This is the first book by this author I have read, I have seen her before on Oprah. I will be reading all the other books by her!

I hope this book can help you understand the mystery and much as it did me.

I needed this book.

My on going joke is that I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up. I’m 33. I have a child, 3 businesses and have been through a lot of loss this past year. Motherhood also has a way of throwing a creative seeker through a loop. If you have ever wondered “What the hell am I doing!?” you will be in for a surprise. You can figure it out. Martha helps you get out of your own way and see a clear path to what the soul really wants. I will now recommend this book to every creative entrepreneur I know. It was the little bit of sunlight I needed.

love it!

this is the 5th Martha Beck book I read, and for sure my favorite one. highly recommend it, especially the audio version since it was read by MB. listening to the book feels like getting several free coaching sessions from her directly.

I can't get enough of Martha Beck!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes! I recommend all of Martha Beck's books all the time! This is a quick "read" and it gives you some concrete ways to get your life on track. She's very intelligent and funny and so likable!

What does Martha Beck bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I am always thrilled to hear Martha Beck's words from her Martha Beck's own voice. She brings a level of personal connection into it. It feels as though she's sitting right there talking directly to me.

Love Martha Beck

I love everything about this book. Martha acknowledges how hard change is, but how necessary change is. It’s not easy, but she gives us a roadmap and permission to be our authentic selves.

directions for change

a mix of metaphors but solid advice from an eastern philosopy. I enjoyed the journey and was helped.
