Unbalanced

Maureen Rank, freelance writer and corporate leadership developer, was growing restless in her midlife stability. So she paid attention to English poet David Whyte who described 'balance' as "a deadly boring concept. There is a sense of unbalancing that must take place in order to push a person into a new and larger set of circumstances." In response, she left Kansas City for Budapest, where she could neither speak, read or write the language, and explored life. In this daily diary, she shares an alternatingly funny, serious, provocative and life-altering adventure.
