About the Author

Jake Ducey, a kid from a good Southern California family, seemed to have it all. But he didn't. Something was missing, and the emptiness had led him to a life fueled by alcohol and drugs. Following his heart, Jake left it all behind and, with his meager savings, traveled the world. He discovered that what he was seeking was inside himself the entire time--that our destiny is realized only if we look within ourselves first. Upon returning from his spiritual adventure, Jake raised the funds to build a school and home for orphans in Guatemala. Now twenty-one, Jake is the author of Into the Wind and The Purpose Principles and he speaks throughout the country on consciously and responsibly creating our lives.
