Did you know you can help sponsor free mammograms (at no cost to you, except the time it takes to click on the following link and then click on the pink "click here" button).  It's quick, easy, and a great benefit to women who can't afford this important health screening.  You can do it every [...]

I've been fortunate enough to get to spend the last week with my son, Tre, and his family…wife Shelly, 4 year old Serenity, and 2 year old Connor.  Being around the little ones, especially, has been such a treat, reminding me of the joy and enthusiasm I want to continue to maintain.  They are bundles [...]

Over the last several months, I’ve been enchanted by the idea and experience of “sparkle.”  It sends me back to being about four or five, when I just loved being myself.  I hadn’t had teachers reprimand me for always wanting to do show and tell.  I hadn’t yet gotten my first (humiliating) birthday spanking in [...]

 For all my enthusiasm about putting new learnings into practice, one thing I hadn't taken into consideration is that, for me, I really need to periodically take time to integrate the new learnings, expansions, etc.  I've been so excited about "moving forward" and taking new actions…some of which were pretty bold expansions of my comfort [...]

I love being enthusiastic!  Most days since I've returned from Wizard Camp have been pretty exciting.  At least partially because I'm consciously putting to use a number of the great things I learned/had reinforced – which, frankly, I'm not always very successful at doing.  But having completed Wizard, I notice I am wanting to do [...]

They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within." – Elisabeth Kubler-Ross This light from within is what I am working to kindle for myself.  Sometimes this light is a roaring [...]

There really is something to be said for getting older!  For most of my 50+ years, I've tried to hide just how quirky I am and have been pretty much miserable.  Quirks, in my terminology, are those behaviors that may seem "out of the mainstream" but are somewhat precious to you, and are really a [...]

I love how God works!  Last week I received an email with a link to a video , and the music in the background was something I recognized from "Last of the Mohicans," a piece of music that stirs my soul (the video is interesting, too – check it out:  http://www.glumbert.com/media/shift .  How great, then, that over the [...]

Why not?  What have we got to lose?  I think this, too, is part of my Freedom Challenge- to go ahead and sparkle, be feisty!  Why not go ahead and sparkle?   I've a class coming up – Reawakening Your Inner Sparkle.  For some reason, I've not shared it with as many people as I would [...]

Starting over.  Let's try this another time.  Didn't work so well last time.  Maybe now I'm ready.  Wouldn't it be cool?  Or maybe with the Law of Attraction I just know I am ready now and move forward.  Cool.
