About us

Hello and welcome!  We’re Phil and Kim. It’s great to meet you. 

We met when we were both in our late 40s, going through divorce after 20 years of marriage, facing financial meltdown and generally feeling unhappy in our lives and unsuccessful in our careers despite working incredibly hard for over 30 years.

How had it come to this?

We had both started searching for answers and met whilst on a personal development training course.

It’s fair to say, no dating site would ever have matched us in a million years as our backgrounds and lifestyles were so different! But our paths crossed, we made each other laugh (a lot), and so started a life-changing journey together.

On this journey, we’ve read many books and listened to lots of speakers on self-development and personal growth. We were always told that to achieve your dream life you had to:

Set big goals.

Plan how to make them happen.

Take massive action.

So we did. But it didn’t work. We tried again. And again. And again. We became so frustrated and despondent.

We felt like we’d failed.

Until we stumbled across a book called ‘Infinite Possibilities: The Art of Changing Your Life’ by Mike Dooley. There was something different about this approach that resonated deeply with us.

Gradually we began to learn and apply the principles of conscious creation to our lives.  We began to live deliberately, setting goals for our ‘dreamed of life’, taking baby steps towards our goals and letting go of how to make them happen.

It was so liberating!

Today, we find ourselves living the life we dreamed of. It’s a life we love.

So what does our dream life look like now?

We love to travel, but it needs time and money and we didn’t know how to make it happen. So applying the principles of ‘Infinite Possibilities’, we put our vision on our dream board, took some baby steps and it’s happened!

In 2019, we bought a campervan called ‘Tut’. We became empty nesters. We downsized and simplified our life in preparation. And in early 2020, we set off on our full-time travelling-while-we-work adventure in ‘Tut’ the Campervan – with our Bichon Frise dog Joey -learning a lot about vanlife and simple living as we go!

Six weeks later, Covid hit the world. (That wasn’t in the plan!) After 18 months of living under lockdowns, and more travelling (at last), we found a beautiful piece of heaven with stunning views – 4 acres of land – in rural Portugal. We’re now turning an old stone barn into our dream home. That was something we’d longed to do ‘one day’ – it all happened much faster with our Infinite Possibilities approach to life.

How each dream came to be is an amazing story which we share in this blog. We still pinch ourselves that it’s real!

We’ve got lots more stories of how our ‘dreamed of life’ has come true. Follow our (almost) daily adventures blog on Facebook where we share stories and updates including:

  • How we found our perfect life partner when no dating site would ever have matched us up
  • How we went from not being able to afford a Starbucks coffee to living a life free from financial worry
  • How we create our dream board each year – even when we have no idea how they will ever come true – and bring our dreams into being
  • and many more….

‘Infinite Possibilities’ has made such an amazing difference to our lives that we wanted to find a way to share it with others. So, in 2019 we travelled to Denver, Colorado to train personally with Mike Dooley (author of the New York Times bestseller ‘Infinite Possibilities’, who also featured in ‘The Secret’, and creator of the daily ‘Notes from the Universe’ with over 990,000 subscribers).

Our CooWooDoo website and blog is one of the ways we can share with you how Infinite Possibilities works for us and how you can change your life and start living the life of your dreams.
