Today we are interviewing Dawn Witte, author of "Be ...: A Coloring Journal Planner That Celebrates Living a Life of Purpose by Design."
Tell us a bit about yourself.I am a certified life coach and the founder of the Desire to Inspire Foundation and upcoming Be Line skincare and fragrance products, and the co-founder of The Be Tour. Being a mom to my two daughters, Taylor and Carrington, is my proudest role and title. Because of my tremendous love for children I started my Foundation to help provide children around the world with a mother's love and care while helping them find and use their own special gifts and talents. All that I do began with my lifelong passion for helping and inspiring others. My books are my way of sharing all that I have learned with others so that they too can live fulfilling lives of purpose.
Describe the purpose of your book, “Be ...: A Coloring Journal Planner That Celebrates Living a Life of Purpose by Design,” in a few sentences.
The Be…Coloring Planner and Journal is something I hope inspires others to live their happiest and most fulfilling life. My co-creator, Deborah Louise Brown, and I wanted to create a book that we would love to have. A place to write hopes and dreams, a place to plan, and a place to celebrate living a life of purpose by design.
Who do you think would most appreciate this book?
I am a little biased but I think that everyone could enjoy this book. We created this journal to help people intentionally design, discover, and record their desires so they can find their own gifts and live into their own unique purpose. We wanted it to be a reminder for everyone that whoever they choose to "BE" in the world will come back to them; that everyone's life has challenges and being strong will help them persevere. We wanted them to understand the importance of being grateful for the life they have, to be inspired so that they can share their great passions with the world, and to realize that kindness and love are currencies more valuable than money. We hope it is a reminder to always be true to who you are and genuine about who that is in the world. And we wanted people to choose happiness, because it puts a special energy into the world that brings about even more joy as it spreads.

What inspired you to write this book?
My daughters have inspired me to be the best role model I can be in all I do. Inspiring them, as well as others, to live lives full of happiness, love and kindness inspired me to write my books.
Why is journaling your innermost thoughts and dreams so helpful for well-being?
No one knows us the way we know ourselves. Many philosophies throughout history believe that we all come into this world with a calling or purpose The way to live into that calling is by paying attention to the things that bring us to life, things that make us happy, things that excite, inspire and attract us. All of those parts of us that make us uniquely us are like puzzle pieces that when all put together create the whole beautiful picture. Through journaling, doodling, planning, and inspiration, we can start tapping into that inner voice that we all have and start putting our own puzzles together.
