ENDORSEMENTS

“A funny, fresh spin on the cruise industry, Pip Coleman’s journey to self-acceptance is a must-read for crew and passengers alike. Finding my Soul at Sea is raw as ship life and just as rewarding.”  
​Brian David Bruns, author of Cruise Confidential

"In her new book Pip shares the unique story of her journey on a cruise ship with liveliness and great humour.  Her stories show us that we can either live a life dictated by others or we can shift to living a life that is designed by our soul. Becoming authentic and real is always a hard task in a world that pays more attention to the superficialities; doing so on a cruise ship sounds even tougher. Yet Pip shows us that our life’s journey can lead us to a place of greater spiritual connection if we allow ourselves to take that path."
Dr Carol Head, Integrative General Practitioner and author of 'Holistic Medicine - Beyond the Physical'. 

‘If you’ve ever been curious about what happens behind the crew only door on a cruise ship, this book gives you the inside story with a surprising twist; as the author shares a spiritual element that tests her moral compass - not for the faint-hearted or politically correct.’

BOOK REVIEWS

"This book takes you on an emotional and spiritual journey through chapters right out of Pip’s life story book. I laughed, I cried, I was truly moved by the candor and honesty of her experiences and felt like I was part of the story.  It gives a very realistic look into what 'ship life' is like.  It is completely relatable and captivating, I  honestly had a hard time putting it down.  This book inspires you to search for more in life, never settle or try to be what others think you should be.  And most importantly follow your heart, don’t be afraid to take risks and makes mistakes as it may lead you to a place where you are able to live your best and most authentic life." Cassandra.

“An honest, entertaining and eye-opening account of life as a social host on board various cruise ships over a period of six years.  Pip regales us with stories which help to illustrate how, over time, she was able to spread her wings and find herself, as well as her true purpose in life.  A highly recommended read whether you’re on the spiritual path, or headed elsewhere!” Beverley. 

“It was wonderful to relive stories, places and experiences that only who has worked on ships can relate to! This unique book has made me laugh, as well as got me very emotional at times.  Pip is a beautiful kind soul and it is so amazing how living and working on ships has brought her to where she is now, physically and especially spiritually. A true self discovery, at times challenging, but that helps you really see how important it is to listens to your inner voice and follow what feels right.” Deborah.

"A wonderful collection of stories that are quite real to anyone who has had the privilege of working on a cruise ship.  This is a very personal book which takes you on a journey about self discovery, and in the process, inspires you to find your own calling.  An excellent read!" Nathan. 

“Pip Coleman's pioneer book, 'Finding My Soul At Sea' is truly an entertaining read. The enlightening and true to life stories she shares, capture the journey to her authentic self.  Love, lust, disappointment, heart break, humour are some, but not all the experiences captured within this book.  To discover them all, you will need to read ...” Claire.

“What an amazing story of where our souls can lead us if we are only brave enough to follow.  I knew she was brave when she first set off from Tasmania, roaming around the world and then on to cruise ships performing for thousands at a time. It wasn't until she left that all behind to take a chance on a spiritual quest that I realised that she is one of the most courageous and inspiring people that I know.” Anita. 

"I finally finished your lovely story of finding your soul at sea. I loved your story and so glad you found your “authentic you” which is such a powerful part of your book. You grew and blossomed as a woman on your journey working on the cruise ships however you grew and blossomed as a person, spiritually and , as you say authentically finding your true and divine path. I wish you every success with your fantastic novel." Christine.
