    Improbable Possibilities shares Rawlings’ life, which is sometimes a roller coaster and sometimes a magic carpet ride. And what a ride: The famous cookie company, the classic airplanes.

The energy of this amazing and accomplished woman is there on every page. And her story is not over.

    Throw spaghetti on the wall and see what sticks is Rawlings’ mantra, as she takes us through her adventurous personal odyssey and business life by “observing, investigating, and creating possibilities”. Experiencing Rawling’s life and psychological journey, each chapter drew me onward to the next. An enticing biographical tale that will keep you turning the pages.

    The chocolate chip cookie is a mainstream food that's been associated with a surprising array of offbeat personalities. Though perhaps not as well-known as Famous Amos, Debbi Fields or David Liederman, Otis Spunkmeyer co-founder Linda Rawlings is arguably even more interesting. Reading Improbable Possibilities is like sitting down with spiked coffee and cookies and catching up with your most adventurous and entertaining friend.

    Aptly named, Improbable Possibilities chronicles the author’s journey from investment trainee to business mogul, entangling with JFK, Jr., Clint Eastwood, and John Chambers. Life changes, but she hasn’t. She’s still my kindergarten friend from our one-roomed Little Red Schoolhouse.

    As we age, being seen as vital can be a challenge. Creating space for artists over 40 to dance were doors Linda opened; kept opening; and keeps opening with Improbable Possibilities. For folks in San Francisco, for me, and for herself. Linda’s advocacy and philanthropic support for moving bodies, at any age, is a glorious gift.

    I remember Ken very well, as well as the Otis Spunkmeyer Company. It has been a long time since the days at Bear Stearns, of which I remember many of them fondly. All the best.
