About the Author

Ken Friedman speaks and performs in the Sacremento area, teaches, and promotes the methods presented in From Turtles to Rainbows. A nonprofit has currently hired him to speak throughout Northern California at public and private schools about their program, the benefits of experiential education and developing From Turtles To Rainbows approaches to parents, teachers and children.

Ken is on the board of the Fiscal Policies Studies Institute. FPSI is single-handedly changing the way governments operate around the world with sensible, results oriented techniques. When applied for personal improvements, people have also achieved practical results.

Ken is a charismatic renaissance man, a successful business person, self-published author, waldorf teacher (one of the largest private schools in the world) and experienced dance teacher with the International Dances of Universal Peace. His striking blue eyes and smile show his clarity and joy of life. Ken had meditated and practiced holisitic approaches to good health and led workshops for over 20 years which include: business and personal planning, decision making, retirement and life-choices planning for individuals in corporate settings and workshop classes, meditation, yoga and chi gung, creative writing and journaling, goal-setting, marketing, and investing- especially in one's self. Ken has found the key to being happy by applying From Turtles To Rainbows in his life.

"I spent fifteen years running an investment business. Finally I realized it was really about being a counseler and planner for all that my clients wished to have. Everyone wanted more money so they could have more happiness, more free time, better health, better relationships and reach their life goals. Along with monetary objectives deep feelings permeated their family life: family, personal dreams and life changes such as divorce, retirement and death. The investment business took me deeply into people's personal choices and significant changes, and all that related to their fears and desires.

"While managing millions, giving financial and economic presentations, meeting with Fortune 500 CFOs, and writing newsletter articles, I wrote The Decision Tree. The novel showed what I, relationships developed through self respect, mutual consideration and love. I could not find any modern day myths showing people overcoming life challenges consciously and without victims and suffering- so I wrote it. I then applied my business experience to publish and market the book myself.

"As an unknown author , I did what worked to build my business- meet and tell lots of people about the book. Selling books at art festivals led to national and independent bookstore presentations which led to teaching decision-making workshops. The novel was profitable, but people seemed more interested in learning how to make better life choices.

"The speaking presentations I developed became the content of my Guides and From Turtles To Rainbows wrote itself. This book contains the core material from the world of self-improvement and raises it to the next level in one easy to use guidebook. The following three years were spent organizing, refining and polishing, teaching and testing the material. Each day I applied the process myself and began creating a new business and life. With clear and effective, steps the book presents a straightforward method for creating a life to treasure."
