What happens when for the first time in 30 years you only have to care for yourself.
It's our Blogaversary! Two years ago, I remember where I was, thoughts circling in my brain. I was thinking about my divorce, thinking about how alone I felt.

For example, yesterday… Continue reading This too shall pass

I have a fire in my belly! A fire to invite the Law of Attraction into my life. It was sparked by manifesting the desire to write. I want to write for a living. I want to help people not only in the real outside world, as I do in my professional life, but I… Continue reading Law of Attraction
