Welcome to Where the Road Rises
Where the Road Rises is a television show sharing powerful tools for those you love and care for.
Eileen Kerlin Walsh tackles the legal and emotional challenges we face daily. We nurture, teach skills to survive and thrive, live our best life, and continue our journey towards success, peace and happiness. And always, we share our stories. We connect through shared heartache and joy and ease each other's burden on this heroic journey. Where the Road Rises is a verse from an old Irish prayer that suggests that when all things are aligned and the road rises, the result is harmony and fulfillment. The show taps into our timeless and universal longing to connect, be validated, be remembered and be heard. Eileen is a community influencer and successful entrepreneur. The law practice she founded in 2001 at her kitchen table when her children were infants has been named one of the Top 20 Estate Planning Law Firms in Chicago. Her motivational CD, designed to help women make peace with the past and create a vision for their future, earned her a Woman of Substance award in 2016. Her online course, Share My Legacy, is a tutorial on sharing one’s life story, and has been featured on TV and in national publications. Now, Eileen draws on her Irish childhood and her deep work in law, inspiration and storytelling to bring you these fascinating insights. |
