Best-Selling Authors Dr. Marilyn Powers and Steve Viglione publish their new book Dreams: The Story of Your Life
San Francisco, CA ~ After a decade long pause from a 20-year non-profit publishing career, best-selling authors Steve Viglione and Dr. Marilyn Powers, decided it was time to publish again. This time something new and different was in their midst. Marilyn was at an impasse as her 40-year career as a consultant was winding down. Steve was busy managing his career in finance when last year he saw Marilyn needed more of a mission and purpose. It was then they decided to publish a book on dreams. Marilyn had done her Ph.D. on Dream Psychology. It was from there the idea for their new book Dreams: The Story of Your Life was born.
In 1998, Steve began a publishing company in Boston called The I AM Foundation and moved it to San Diego. His vision was to gift books to children and adults worldwide. In 2005 he met the love of his life. “Marilyn had come to me initially with her book The Bridge Between Two Lifetimes to republish. Low and behold we fell in love in 2006 and got married on Wind and Sea Beach in La Jolla. Marilyn brought the foundation to a whole new level, and we traveled around the world to gift our books to kids as I envisioned.” His I AM! Affirmation Book: Discovering The Value of Who You Are for children became world renowned and a best-selling book with over 200,000 copies in print. It was gifted to children in fifty languages. Steve and Marilyn did book gifting missions where they would print the books in English and the language of the culture.
Today, Steve and Marilyn have rekindled their publishing passion with their newest book Dreams: The Story of Your Life, An Interactive Guide and Journal available through Amazon.com. In it, Marilyn shares about her vast career in helping people recall, record, and interpret their dreams. With Steve’s experience as a publisher, they created an interactive guide which can help people understand the importance of their dreams and how to interpret as well as journal about them.
Steve and Marilyn have also created a YouTube Channel @dreamcentralnow that is rapidly catching on with viewers. They have developed a catalogue of meditation, relaxation, and sleep assistance videos. Marilyn also teaches about dreams through her shorts and long videos. You can see their work and receive their support @dreamcentral now on YouTube.
