Creating Your Own La La World—with Sally-Anne Cast

How do you go from having a traumatic experiences as a child/young adult to fulfilling a dream to having no home or job to having a dream job find you? This is some of the life that Sally-Anne Cast has experienced. 

Sally-Anne Cast knew at the age of 16 that she wanted to work in the field of sign language. At 19 she achieved that goal, but it was not in a job that felt right. After a few years, she discovered she had another purpose—to be a wife and mother. Over the next 20 years, Sally-Anne focused on raising her four children (including one who was diagnosed at age 3 as being deaf). Even though Sally-Anne cut back her sign language career, she taught all of her children American Sign Language (ASL) as a second language.  

After 25 years of marriage, Sally-Anne and her husband realized that it was not a situation they should continue. On July 15, 2012, Sally-Anne boarded a plane with her two minor children and six backpacks and travelled 3,000 miles from New York to California to begin a journey that she labels to be “of epic proportion.” After a year of spiritual growth, accompanied by a few challenges, including housing issues and not having a job, she now describes her life as living like Elmo from Sesame Street, living in a La La World. On Monday, Sept. 1,  noon PDT/3 p.m. EDT/8 p.m. UK, she will she how it all came to be.

Join host Cindy Freeman on Mondays live at 12 noon PST/3 pm EST/8 pm UK with her guests who are living their life with a purpose and are willing to share with listeners how they got there and how others might benefit from their experience.
