Picture yourself aboard a cruise ship, the ocean stretching endlessly beyond the horizon, a gentle breeze carrying the salty aroma of adventure. And there, in the midst of it all, is Sharon Lancaster, an experienced guide, inviting you to dive deeper into the wonders that travel offers — not just by visiting places, but by connecting with them in a way that enriches both your journey and your spirit.
For over 20 years, audiences have been captivated by Sharon’s unique blend of humor, inspiration, and a touch of the mystical, delivered through vivid storytelling that turns every session into an adventure of its own. With a background in creative advertising, marketing, and wellness, these presentations are infused with a depth of experience that brings each topic to life. Sharon has honed an engaging narrative style and dynamic presence through a life rich in experiences across military bases, cities, and remote islands.
Onboard, Sharon’s sessions open your mind to new ways of seeing the world. Whether it’s learning to infuse your travels with deeper meaning in the Art of Pilgrimage talk, or discovering how the ancient practice of Feng Shui can transform not only your home but also how you shop for souvenirs at port, these presentations are designed to inspire and empower. Stories of Hawaiian traditions, ancient Yin-Yang principles, and explorations of the Four Noble Truths are woven in a way that feels universal — less about religion, more about the common threads that tie humanity together.
These sessions aren’t just about imparting knowledge; they are about sharing experiences. The Tantric Traveler invites participants to explore life and travel through a lens that heightens joy and curiosity. Reflexology classes provide practical tips for better sleep, digestion, and relaxation — all valuable skills during a long ocean crossing. Meditation sessions go beyond simply closing your eyes; they offer an immersive experience, with the vast ocean backdrop serving as a reminder of the immense peace that lies within.
Folklore, rituals, and love stories from the islands and destinations visited during a cruise add an extra layer of richness. Destination talks are sprinkled with tales of port history, local customs, and spiritual practices, transforming a simple excursion into a rich cultural experience.
Attendees often leave Sharon’s sessions not just informed but inspired, ready to see the world through a fresh lens. Each journey becomes an invitation to learn, grow, and create memories that go far beyond sightseeing — it’s about designing a life filled with meaning, balance, and joy.
