Squeezed out of his company in mid-career, Heyward finds himself unsure of what to do next.

Put the career on hold, pull the children out of school, sell the house, and buy a boat in Greece to sail the Mediterranean? Why not? And so begins Heyward and Charlotte’s one-year businessman’s sabbatical. But with the winter months approaching and the Gulf War under way, this dream cruise will soon present them with a whole new set of obstacles.

Becoming immersed in the cultural traditions of Turkey, Greece, Italy, Malta, Tunisia, and many other Mediterranean destinations, Heyward and his family learn to appreciate a variety of cultures, the delicate art of cruising life, and much about themselves. With cresting highs and dipping lows, the Coleman family is about to begin the most important experience of their lives.

Based on an inspiring true story, Where the Wind Blows uses broad strokes to take listeners through the many steps of deciding, planning, and executing this once-in-a-lifetime adventure. With copious planning and preparation, the Colemans’ trip ultimately enriched their lives in ways they never anticipated.

Both he and Charlotte gain the courage to take off 10 years later for a circumnavigation that is the subject of his other book, The Next Port. With a wonderful message that teaches listeners to follow their destiny, this inspiring story shows us that it is never too late to take control of our lives.

Full of humor, this action-packed story is an armchair sailor’s delight, as well as a wannabe cruiser’s “how to guide”. It is sure to captivate anyone ready to embrace the winds of change.
