With a curious and sometimes quirky outlook on the world, 'Back to Life' tells the story of a very personal journey; from stress of work, life and bereavement, to finding new purpose, passion and meaning in life. Set in 1998, at the dawn of the internet and mobile technology, the author shares her insights on life, love, loss and information overload! As she comes to realize that she is caught in a workaholic rut, she also discovers tools and techniques to lift herself out of that and redesign her life.

Filled with hope and optimism, this book will inspire you to find your own Big Dream, and give you some tools to realize your own dreams too. 'Back to Life ... Finding the Dream' is the first in a series of four books, which chart the highs and lows of Clodagh's adventures, at sea and ashore; discovering the joy and challenges of sailing, following the dream to sail to the Azores, and on to racing across oceans with the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race.
