Loving Yourself

Posted by admin on May 29, 2014 in Change the World, Renew your spirit, Women's Interest | Comments Off on Loving Yourself I’m lovable I have known for a long time that loving myself was my best route for healing all the hurt, guilt and sorrow of my younger days, and for dodging and softening the “slings and arrows” down to the present moment.

The Privilege of Growing Older

Posted by admin on May 27, 2014 in Change the World, Leave a legacy, Re imagine your life, Re-invent yourself, Women's Interest | Comments Off on The Privilege of Growing Older Not everyone is allowed the privilege of growing older.

Getting Unstuck Continued

Posted by admin on May 5, 2014 in Re imagine your life, Re-invent yourself, Renew your spirit, Women's Interest | 0 comments Getting Unstuck can be extremely tricky.
