Ah, the joy of nerves…
August 18, 2009
Hello, dear women; Could I have been any more nervous, and survive? I don’t think so. Despite all my second guessing, I am glad to have had you all join me today for our Launch event: a conversation about “expansion” with Karen Cappello. I loved the exercise

New Resource Added: a Meditation for Busy Women!

Sally Taylor’s Press the Pause Button meditation is a delight, and just a taste of what she’ll be bringing to us in November. She and I have set the date for our teleseminar presentation…although I think tele-meditation might be a better term for us to use. Sally will be sharing her wonderful energy

Home Funerals
August 3, 2009
I may have mentioned to some of you that I’m a level 2 home funeral guide. Now, I’ll be honest here; all this means is that I took a weekend workshop; I’ve not yet orchestrated a home funeral. I was interested in the concept, and would really like to see
Monday Morning
August 3, 2009
It’s hard to believe, but I was up at 2:30 this morning. Phenomenally poor night’s sleep; although I was lying down for almost 5 hours, I couldn’t manage more than just a “doze” at any point during the night. So, I just got up, and got some
