Puurrr Bliss...

I just had to share this photo of my cat with you. His
name is Satchit Ananda which means, pure bliss (we should
say, Puurr Bliss :)) Does this capture that energy or what?

Sometimes, I think we need to take a note from our pets
about the way to best embody authentic, natural, confident
behavior - the most attractive energy you can have in
business!

Towers of Light Memorial - September 11

Wow well it's September 11th - It's actually been quite healing taking time to just mark what a different place I am in from just 7 short years ago. I spent yesterday honoring 2001 and also claiming the beauty of NOW (I spent the afternoon at a photo shoot - I'll share those pics with you soon!) And noticed that I've actually made peace with the Towers of Light Memorial that hovers over my apartment (I used to find this haunting). Here's a photo so you can see what I mean.
So, all of this remembering had me thinking about something important and let me ask you: Are You A Resistor or Persistor?

Good Happening Gatherings

I spent this past weekend with of two my dear friends, Leslie and Rosemarie. We taught together “back in the day”, but have managed to get together once a month – every month! – since I left traditional teaching for what we call, “Good Happening Gatherings.”
Our lives have all gone in many different directions, but we still come back together. And they are two of my biggest supporters. And, sadly, I’ve learned that supporters can be hard to come by when you venture off into the self-employed thing (lots of folks just don’t get it) And even if these two friends don’t understand everything I do all of the time, they always celebrate my success – and vice versa. A very cool thing, I have to say!
Here we are at an outdoor picnic in Brooklyn celebrating Rosemarie’s sons 1st birthday. We had a blast, and already have our next gathering date set!

David Neagle's - Reality of Success

Well, my time at David Neagle's "Experience the Reality of Success" event was both mind and heart blowing, for sure. As part of the event I attracted an awesome group of folks as my manifesting teammates. Here we all are right before we collectively manifested $9,000 (and, no it wasn't by gambling!) Can't wait to share everything I learned with you : )

And now I'm off to Saratoga Springs for some really important family and relaxation time. It seems like the summer is just flying by! I can't complain though it's all been such great stuff. I hope your summer is full of wonderful, joyful business and personal growth, too!

Upstate New York


My husband Stephen and I got in some great mountain hikes during our time away in Upstate New York recently. Being in the mountains always brings in an energy I can't get anywhere else and also usually shows me a thing or two about next steps for myself (even when I don't want to see it.) This definitely came up this time as EnergyRICH® Coaching prepares to go into it's next phase of what my private clients and Boot Campers know as "Being Considerable Huge." But, ya know, it's always about creating a solid start at the base and then moving toward the top one step at a time and before you know it - you're there! (Here's a view from one of my mountain tops for you.)

Women That Win in Boca Raton, Florida with Marci Shimoff!

This conferencee was one of the best I've ever been a keynote speaker at. The energy was completely focused on the idea that a new year brings fresh beginnings. Not just on calendar pages of new months and days, but from within... It's about having the attitude of mind and heart that you can begin anew ... not begin to do it over again, but begin with a freshness, an outlook and knowingness that propel you forward. Releasing any doubts, maybes, or "I can'ts". To move from replaying discouraging messages in your mind to participating in a new way. Here's a big Shout Out to all my new Florida EnergyRICH Entrepreneurs!


At the beginning of the day at my "Speakers Table" with my new
"How to Move Through Fear For More Money"
Audio and Action-Book.


Here I am sandwiched between two amazing women (and also speakers for that day)
Judy Martin and Barbara Biziou.


What a treat it was to share the keynote stage with Marci Shimoff!



Here I am with Kellie Kuecha - the MastHERMind behind the entire event.

Christmas Time!

Christmas is really one of my favorite times of the year. I think it's because I have such wonderful memories of my mother and all she would do to make Christmas special.

I also love celebrating the return of the light, re-birth and just the wonder that comes with a white Christmas - which we had this year!

Hope this time of the year is filled with JOY for you, too.

Stephen took me to the top of Whiteface Mountain in Lake Placid during one of our Post-Christmas Adventure days. It was breathtaking!

Here I am ice-skating at the famous Lake Placid Speed Skating Loop. (I'm skating backward there - by the way :))
What a GLORIOUS Thanksgiving we had this year! Hope you did, too. I like to remember that no matter where you are, who you are with or what you are doing (or even how "right" things seem to be feeling on this holiday) in some shape or form there is a collective energy of gratitude this time of year. Please know how grateful I am for YOU.

Many Blessings to You Always,




Thanksgiving table all set to go - this was my "job"! Looks nice, right?




Here I am with my "Poppy", my grandfather who will be 86 in February. Please send him loving-longevity energy!

Ali Brown's Online Success Blueprint Workshop in L.A.

I had such a great time attending Ali Brown's (The Ezine Queen!) Online Success Blueprint Workshop. It's so important for us Entrepreneurs to step out and mix and mingle with other self-employed folks who are ready to play BIG!


Here I am sharing my intentions for the workshop and for my business in general. If you've never had the experience of sharing your business intentions and having them witnessed by others - it's a must. It accelerates everything about your business growth. I recommend joining the EnergyRICH Business Boot Camp - sharing intentions is a HUGE and important part of this special group experience.



Here I am at break time gettin' my groove on and amping up my energy for the rest of a great day of learning. I really LOVE my hair here (I should groove everywhere I go!)



This is me with Maggie from GivingAdvice.com. She's been a part of the EnergyRICH Community for awhile now and recognized me one day at lunch! It was great to meet her in person :)


Me with The Queen!



Here I am with my best-friend, Alexandra. She lives in LA so not only did I get to attend an amazing workshop, but I got in some good gal pal time, too! We're getting ready to go out to a play on my last night in LA (Yup, my hair is still wet. Alexandra always looks amazing and put together and I tend to be on-the-fly!)

EnergyRICH Entrepreneurs Monthly Networking LAUNCH!

Brigitte St. Ouen of www.32FineArts.com and I hosted a very extraordinary networking event at Brigitte's Art Gallery Gramercy 32 Fine Arts in New York City on April 23rd, 2007. A very select group of high-integrity, highly-talented women business owners came together to network, mastermind on an important business topic and ask each other, "How can I support you?". As one of the participants said, "I thought the energy in the room was electric!!"
