Oola is a way of life. Surf the Oola wave! --Ms. Flor Villarrealowner, Panama Surf School I've often heard people say, play to your strengths. I have done that in my life, which has made me a successful singer songwriter. But life is not all about singing and songwriting. In fact, very little of life is about singing and songwriting. I want an OolaLife. I don't want to just be good at my job, and epically fail at everything else. This book is a fantastic read, and extremely helpful in creating the kind of life I think we all want to live. --Tyrone Wellscritically acclaimed singer songwriter Admittedly, I've never gotten all the way through a self-help book. They always feel too pompous and preachy. After finishing Oola, I still don't feel like I've read a self-help book. Oola reads more like a collection of kick-ass anecdotes and sincere stories that just happen to have meaningful messages. These two guys--the OolaSeeker and the OolaGuru-- aren't telling their stories for selfish reasons. They truly want you to live the OolaLife. Oola seems more like the script of a classic 'buddy road-trip' movie than a self-help book. Here, though, is maybe all you really need to know: In one single chapter, you'll get the story of the OolaGuru's matching purple shorts/tanktop outfit right next to the OolaSeeker's tale of the time the cops pulled him out of the car while he was wearing nothing but zebra-striped, bikini-cut undies. --Steve LangeAward-winning columnist, magazine editor, writer From the boardroom of NBC's The Apprentice, to the podium of some of largest Fortune 500 corporate functions, I thought I had firsthand seen and heard it all on the subject of life mastery. Oola provides a personal GPS to enlighten, inspire, and give life direction. This is a must read! --Troy McClainCEO of McClain Companies As a mother, physician, exercise enthusiast, and entrepreneur, I am constantly seeking to find balance in my life. Oola showed me how!

I want the OolaLife! --Dr. DelRae MesserCEO of DrDelRaeDetox.com, Ms. Fitness Minnesota In all my years of playing and coaching in the NFL, I have never seen a better playbook for balancing and growing your life. This book was 70 percent entertaining, 30 percent educational, and 100 percent life- changing. If you desire to have a better life, an OolaLife, then you need to read this book. --Brant Boyerprofessional football player and coach Wildly creative, packed with insights, this extraordinary book is a gift for anyone who doesn't want to accept 'ordinary' as the only option for life. --Jon AcuffWall Street Journal bestselling author of Quitter This book couldn't have come at a better time for me. Life takes us on different routes with ups and downs and hearing the stories in this book really hit home with me.
