This Ocean Called Freedom: An Alternative Life (Paperback) by Ted Cabarga, Diane See

This Ocean Called Freedom: An Alternative Life chronicles the life of an extraordinary woman who, for eight decades, would repeatedly challenge the status quo, refuse to conform, and insist the world meet her on her terms. As a trendsetter and a born leader trapped in an oppressive suburban lifestyle, the author found freedom born of a miraculous spiritual awakening. As an expansive thinker, each obstacle she faced marked a turning point in her exciting but treacherous course through life. Eventually she broke free, brought her whole family into the 1970s counterculture, and reinvented the nuclear family. After a devastating disaster she became a healer, stood firm by her convictions, and never gave up the fight for justice. A lifetime of pioneering, combined with an uncommon gift for writing, makes for a riveting memoir that takes the reader along on an inspiring journey of transformation and self-realization. This memoir is important reading for anyone raising a family, changing the world, or just having a serious go at life.
