Career to Calling is really a call-to-action to re-kindle your passions, restore your belief in what’s possible and reset your compass to live the life you truly want.’

‘This book will help you wherever you may be in life’s journey.’
JACKI JOHNSON, Co-Chair United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative'

 ‘What if you could do more Great Work: work that has more impact, work that has more meaning? Finding your calling is one doorway to that; and if you're willing to roll up your sleeves and do the work, this book might just show you the way.’
MICHAEL BUNGAY STANIER, author of The Coaching Habit

‘In an age where so many are looking for deeper purpose, meaning and impact, Annie provides us with a comprehensive roadmap to discover and live our true calling. A powerful and practical read.’
RAJEEV DEWAN, Author of ‘Be.Do.Live.’ ,Peak Performance Coach 

‘I remember asking a world famous philosopher “What is the meaning of life?” His succinct answer was “What you make of it!”
In this important book, Annie, in her loving way, offers us lessons on the “how”. These may sound simple, but are profound, and are taught in the major religions of the world.
She describes the fundamental process as looking within ourselves, and answering the calling. This is the noble purpose, greater than ourselves, but central to our happiness. By answering, we are able to confront the fear, and fulfill our true potential. In this we can find true happiness.
I commend this book, and its call to action, to all who are contemplating the calling, or who are answering it.
May you be happy.’
GORDON CAIRNS, Chairman of Woolworths Group
