The Book Worm Set

Our new written Guide and iconic Sage Candle.

Last August I sat in the goat shed and started writing a book. 

It was the kind of book I NEEDED to read. I was hungry to learn about how to live a GREAT life — not just a good one. I wanted to hear directly from my heroes about how they found their way to happiness, greatness and joy. And how they found their way out of mediocrity and darkness.

600 pages later, I have never been more proud of anything I have ever done. Ever.

The Guide to Becoming Alive is part manifesto, part memoir. It includes lessons from the garden, and candid conversations with my heroes and friends including: Jane Goodall, Alice Waters, Jo Horgan, Martha Stewart, Jane Fonda, Terry Tempest Williams, Kelly Wearstler, David Leon, Jobi Manson, Gonzalo Samaranch Granados, Elise Loehnen, Erica Chidi, Ellen DeGeneres, Chrissy Teigen, John Legend, David de Rothschild, Dr. Kerry Howells

Together we talk about work ethic, sex, love, purpose, food, exercise, technology, politics, design, plants, and dogs. There’s plenty of great images and lots of words to live by. In a world that feels chaotic, this is a roadmap.

massively impressed

I sent The Guide to Becoming Alive to my daughter.

It arrived exactly on time with updates along the way

AND my request for a card to accompany this gift was a physical handwritten card with a little flower drawing!

Impressed every step of the way!

The only coffee table book I actually pick up

I love to buy beautiful coffee table books and most of them just sit there looking pretty. But this is a book I reach for again and again. I am so in love with the photography and design of the book and it truly takes me into the world of Flamingo Estate!
