Oh my god. This very well might be my most frightening moment since beginning the 100 Things I Fear challenge. I am quite frankly shivering with fear and excitement. You see, I received $5 of Borders Bucks. I know, that in and of itself isn’t frightening at all. But, just wait until you hear what [...]

September 30, 2009Book Review: This Time I Dance by Tama Kieves
August 26, 2009This is one of the best self-discovery books I’ve read and it’s all about “creating the work you love.” She poses this powerful question: If you’re this successful doing work you don’t love, what could you do with work you do love? If this question stirs something within you, then I invite you to stop [...]
Great Read for Parents of Teens
August 20, 2009What a fun and fast read! Ever since I read the Twilight series I’ve been devouring all sorts of vampire books. I had no idea there were so many! This one was definitely catchy.

Are you hiding your dark side?
August 10, 2009I met Debbie Ford in San Francisco earlier this year as she was preparing for her movie debut.

I just bought these books
April 30, 2009Michael Port says, “The single most important act of any one individual thinking big is inspiring others to think big. Truth be told, sometimes it’s easier to help others to think big than to do it ourselves. And here is the gift of thinking big… the process of helping others is what builds our confidence [...]
Trade Women for Horses? What?!
November 5, 2008I personally *LOVE* this novel. In fact, it is definitely one of my all-time favs. Total two thumbs up and 5 stars. The writing was superb. There wasn’t a single wasted word. I loved the pace and created an instant “movie in my head” from the very first page. The story was vivid and I [...]
Book Review: Eat, Pray, Love
October 13, 2008Total thumbs up for Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert! Before I became self-employed I used to read a ton of fiction and being involved in a book club was mandatory. I simply loved talking about books and connecting with others. Back in 2005 when I went back to school to become a life coach [...]
I’m Reading…
July 26, 2008The next book for our book club is Gentlemen and Players by Joanne Harris. I’m looking forward to reading a novel written by a woman. Our first two picks were both written by men and interestingly enough the main characters were women. Wally Lamb did a much better job writing a woman in She’s Come [...]
