About this ebook
"It is not just the answer that enlightens, but the question. I firmly believe that QUESTIONS are the ANSWER."
I am not one to quote myself often, but this statement tends to sum up the energy and intention of my work over the past seven years. As a naturally curious person, I have found my own sense of awe, enlightenment and pure joy simply by asking questions – both to myself and to others. I have discovered that oftentimes the answers to these questions tell a powerful story and that is the root and mission of our collective work within The SpeakEasy Method: to help people unlock their true, authentic voice to tell and share the greatest stories ever told – their own. From my own journey of self-discovery and awareness, I have collected and curated thousands of questions that I have used as tools to help "dig deeper" into the conscious and subconscious mind to find my own answers to life's most pressing questions. They have helped shape my life and continue to teach and guide me each day. This workbook is a small sampling of these very questions I have asked myself and others and are the foundation of many of the story projects me and my team at The SpeakEasy Method use to bring amazing stories to life for our authors. If you are curious about your own story, I invite you to contact me for a chat!
I hope you find them enriching and valuable in your own life.

Acknowledgements
There are countless names and faces that come to mind to whom I would like to send my deepest gratitude for making this book possible – both known and unknown, famous and not-yet-famous, everyday people but all of them extraordinary. Spiritual and philosophical teachers, mentors, coaches, experts in their fields and shape-shifters included, but who comes to mind with these specific themes and questions are the countless people I have had the pleasure and honor to connect with over the years where many of these questions were the basis of our conversations and story projects. If you happen to find a question here that you feel we may have explored before, I’m talking to you and I thank you.
I’d like to extend a very special thank you to my editor and publisher, Hailey Nantais, for bringing this book to life in ways that I couldn’t possibly have done by myself. Her love of stories and her devotion to her work show in all that she does and I am so blessed to have someone so gifted and talented to bring my vision to life. If you have a similar creative project you need assistance with, Hailey is for you! She can be found at www.malachitemanuscripts.com.
Finally, I would like to thank my immediate and extended family for their continued support within all of my work and for inspiring many of the questions that are included in this book. This is just the beginning of what’s to come…
