Did you ever wonder what would happen if you actually gave up your day job and experienced the job of your dreams?  Today on the Powerful Stories we speak to Alisha Fernandez Miranda to talk about her book “My What If Year” which is a thought-provoking exploration of what we're made of and what we could make of ourselves still.”



On the cusp of turning forty, Alisha Fernandez Miranda has climbed to the peak of personal and professional success, but at a price; she's overworked and exhausted.

She decides to give herself a break, temporarily pausing her stressful career as the CEO of her own consulting firm. With the tentative blessing of her husband and eight-year-old twins, she leaves her home in London to spend one year exploring the dream jobs of her youth, seeking answers to the question, "What If?"

What follows is a spirited and hilarious journey as she gofers for two high-profile Broadway productions (and nearly tramples Stephan Sondheim), attempts to master a fitness regimen called Voga (a cross between yoga and "voguing"), feigns confidence while handling multi-million-dollar artwork at Christie's, and literally sets her shirt on fire while serving rack of lamb in a posh hotel on Scotland's remote Isle of Skye. 

For anyone who's ever felt stuck in a rut Alisha proves that it's never too late to say yes to second chances and explore the possibilities of life if we just say YES!
