August was all about doing things differently and taking time off from my business. In July I let my clients know that our next appointments would be in September, then made plans that took me in other directions. My three big away-from-my-routine outings were:...
Greetings from Dallas! I arrived this morning to attend a working conference. In this month of not doing my regular entrepreneurial work, I've cleared the time to give service to a spiritual fellowship this week and assist at a coaching workshop next. While this...
When my sisters and I were young we would look at magazines like Seventeen or at mail order catalog pages and vote for our favorite model, outfit or hair-do. We'd turn the pages, announce the category, then count to three and point. "Prettiest! One, two, three!"...
In June I made a financial and management decision--words not usually associated with yoga (my first clue!)--to stop going to my beloved yoga instructor in Southport 6+ miles from my home. Those classes were intimate and there was plenty of space to stretch out....
I had a super consciousness raising weekend starting on Friday when I attended a macrobiotic conference in Palisades, NY. The opening lecture, Living from the Soul, was given by Tom Monte who connected how we eat with our thought patterns. You can visit his site...

My first offering of Transformation through Transition ended Monday with successes and hugs. Six women began the process a month ago by sharing where they were in their lives/businesses with almost-strangers. Two women who already knew each other had the seed of an...
I can think of two clients off the top of my head who are on the verge of major success. In both cases the work is impeccable--one an author, the other an interior designer. Each has done everything humanly possible to get her message out to the public. They have...
