Welcome to Welby Island is a story that revolves around five troubled people from Los Angeles who come from different walks of life but will soon be traveling down the same path to enlightenment. That is, if they can survive twelve weeks on Welby Island at the hands of world renowned life coaches Micah and Blair Claine. When they arrive via seaplane to the uninhabited island off the coast of Washington State, they are none too happy. After a fifteen-minute walk up the beach and through the woods, they emerge to the sight of a rundown cabin that in no way resembles the large sprawling beach house from the Claine Enlightenment Retreat brochure. It doesn't take long for the life coaching gurus to realize that these feisty five are not buying what they are selling. Knowing that they are each carrying burdens that are clinging to them like seaweed, the five guests of Welby Island have to figure out how to get along and survive twelve weeks in a shack on a deserted island. Welcome to Welby Island is a witty, sassy, humorous and emotional journey that will take you along on the road to enlightenment. | Welcome to Welby Island by Julie Julie Ives, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
