Bobbie Sandoz-Merrill

Hawai'i born author Bobbie Merrill dove into the ocean simply to play with wild dolphins and whales, but emerged ten years later a better person living a better life.

"Compelling Conversations with Dolphins and Whales in the Wild" is designed to share Bobbie's entrancing memoir about her decade of being one of the first to swim with wild dolphins and whales, while learning new information about their advanced intelligence, language, and unique style of humor, kindness, and play.

This third of Bobbie's personal and spiritual growth books is not only filled with engaging stories and surprising revelations, but also unveils the source of the cetaceans' renown magic and insights that offer us new ways to create our own lives of joy.

Bobbie's first highly acclaimed book, "Parachutes for Parents"—written from her perspective of an effective adult and child therapist—received a "Library Journal Review" and became a best selling companion to many thousands of previously confused and frenzied parents. It also serves as an enlightening guide for grandparents, teachers, and child and family therapists.

Bobbie's third book, "Settle for More", is co-authored with her husband, Dr. Tom Merrill, in which they share the secrets to the success of their own cherished partnership. They also co-authored a freelance Relationship Column written for Cox News/NY Times and have not only helped clients and class attendees to resurrect failing partnerships, but to then take them from crisis to incredible.

Bobbie and Tom continue to write blogs and books and conduct Online Classes on the topics of: Parenting Effectiveness and Partnership Success. You can learn more about these classes and how to attend them by contacting Bobbie on their website, MakingRelationshipsWork.com.
