Diane Gansauer's Waypoints book cover

The Waypoints: From 400 Farewells and 3,000 Miles was designated a Finalist in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards — the largest book award for independent authors and publishers.

The Waypoints

A Physical Journey, A Spiritual Adventure– At the age of sixty-one, Diane Gansauer committed to something great: hiking the entire length of the Continental Divide Trail, from Mexico to Canada.

Over a seven-year journey through mountains, rivers, and forests, Diane continued her work officiating celebrations of life. By the time she completed all thirty-one hundred miles of the trail, Diane had honored more than four hundred life stories through memorial services and gatherings. The Waypoints: From 400 Farewells and 3,000 Miles chronicles the wisdom that overlapped her experience of these lives and the trail, like stacked stones on the path, guiding the way.

The Waypoints Book was awarded the Readers Favorite Book Award“The Waypoints is an inspiring, extraordinary, and transformative work that awakens your soul to the wonder in this world…This evocative read makes us contemplate what matters over time and reflect on our legacy.

Anyone who wants to fall in love with life and nature again should read this book.”

I help audiences embrace what they need to thrive personally and professionally by sharing inspiring examples of focus and courage.
