After working in corporate America for over 20 years, Cheri walked away from her career to pursue a dream. 

She shed most of her belongings, sold her house in suburbia Boston, loaded a U-HAUL truck with the balance of everything she owned and headed south. 
​
Upon arriving on Fort Lauderdale she loaded her life into a shipping container and headed for The Bahamas to an island where she  did not know anyone beyond a couple of acquaintances.  From 2007 - 2022, Cheri lived on the magical island of Grand Bahama serving as an Environmental Educator, Writer, Master Reiki Practitioner, Yoga Instructor and Personal Wellness Coach. After spending fifteen years on the island, she decided it was time to expand her experiences to other parts of the world. 

Cheri is currently based out of Massachusetts and travels regularly to Europe and South America. She continues to provide Wellness services to clients, both in- person and remotely.

Cheri's newly published memoir is now available!
A collection of poignant, yet humorous tales about growing up in the suburbs of Boston in the 1970's, Laughter Leads to Light warms the soul while providing good clean comic relief. Author Cheri Wood reflects on a time before cable television, when grandma served as the Comedy Channel, and when a visit to the local farm provided more inspiration than any app on a handheld device.

Through the writing of this memoir, Wood's mother's legacy of leading her family to lives filled with happiness and joy carries on, revealing a final message regarding her mother's life purpose.
