A book for baby boomers and others not content to accept an unfulfilling future. The Caterpillar That Roared, a quick-read book in the tradition of Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Who Moved My Cheese? was co-authored with Joseph Sturniolo's fellow baby boomer, Dan Christopherson. Each chapter of the 13-chapter book illustrates the 13 lessons learned in Sturniolo's ROAR workshops - aimed at helping people discover or rediscover their gifts and passions so they can meaningfully employ them in the next stage of their lives. The workshops grew into an organization - ROAR - and a virtual community aimed at creating a revolution of alternatives to conventional retirement or unfulfilling occupations.
Joseph S. Sturniolo shelved his first love, a career in teaching drama & mounting plays, to better support his growing family as a stock broker and later as the owner of a very successful wealth management firm. In the course of assisting his financially secure clients with retirement planning, he realized the real issue for many of them - as it was for him - was not about having enough money in retirement. It was about not having enough meaning in retirement. Aided by two psychologists with expertise in life transitions, he developed ""ROAR-in"" multi-day workshops for his clients, and later the public at large. His ROAR membership organization provides ongoing support and community for workshop participants. The workshops help people rediscover or reconnect with long-abandoned gifts and passions. After three decades away from teaching and employing his flair for public speaking and theatrical techniques, in his workshops Joe now has found that his own journey at last has led him home. Daniel Christopherson is a former sports writer for two daily newspapers who went on to a career in public relations, advertising and marketing. In his spare time, he has been a freelance contributor to a number of publications, including a national travel guide. This is his first book of fiction.
