SEO FOCUS: Money Mindset, Self-Worth, Mission What Is Your Money Mindset?
Try this: Take a $10 bill out of your wallet. When you look at that beautiful bill, do you see abundance? Is that your money mindset? Or do you see “only” a $10 bill, and find your mind circling the poverty-consciousness drain?
To a billionaire who’s in the frightening process of losing all of his money, coming down to $10 million feels like coming down to $10! To the penniless entrepreneur who begins to be able to dine out instead of shopping at a dollar store, coming up to $10 is a boost. You can decide what kind of money mindset to build, with just a few steps. Here are two powerful perspectives you need to adopt in order to create a business abundant in not just bottom-line success, but personal success. READ MORE |

An "Outspoken" Woman
Because as a woman you can't tell anyone you're angry African-American women know this and they avoid it like the plague - this “I’m an angry black woman” stamp. And all women know it no matter what their color, size, shape or age. Don’t. Be. Angry. Because people will tell you that you will be seen as “too emotional”, “irrational”, and you will be dismissed, disliked, and punished. READ MORE |

Is Thor the Only One Who’s Worthy? |
A Visible Woman |
If I told you that you’re secretly a superhero, I doubt that you’d believe me. And while I have utmost faith in your eminent worthiness as a human being and a business owner – and your absolute ability to do anything you set your mind to – you’d be forgiven for having a few doubts about that.
Most of us do! And feeling worthy can be a hard nut to crack. But it’s not impossible, and you don’t even have to be Thor! READ MORE |
Taking up feminine space in a masculine world
“Long, strange trip” is the definition of my life. I’m not complaining. What I’m doing is setting the stage. I started out obedient. I am now absolutely my own woman committed to authenticity in an inauthentic world. And yeah, sometimes that requires having a good scream, or a good cry, or some good wine... READ MORE |

I also laugh because it gets you to chill out. It clues you in to the reassuring fact that you're not talking to a machine. It gives you the confident feeling that I don't hate my job and therefore you. Apparently, laughter is my Secret Weapon.

Excerpt from "Call Center Crazy: When Customer and Service Collide"
"It's Nice of You...But Really...Who Cares..."
Who knew the word "stylist" could mean something besides hair dresser?
One woman told me that her stylist had advised her; after I realized we weren't actually talking about her hair, I received another call from another woman and became her clothing stylist for an hour and a half.
It was an adventure into the vagaries of people.
"Cool! You're going to be taking a swim class? What are your measurements? Okay, let me look at the size chart. You need a Medium... Yes, I am absolutely sure. But there is one thing that concerns me. Yes. What concerns me about this [plunging and revealing] swimsuit tankini top [which is completely useless for a swimming class], is that it ties behind your neck. Your breasts pull on the ties which pull on the back of your neck and it's not great for your neck muscles. [not to mention that you're looking at a picture of a 5'8" model who is 24 years old, and you're 65 and 5'1". What are you thinking???]"

Excerpt from "Mother Love: Embracing the Wound, Tempering the Steel"
He said, “You should come see my guru. She’s going to be here next week, and she’s the real deal.” He was immediately treated to my skepticism. “Guru?” I said with a sneer, thinking How ‘60’s of you! But seriously – gurus!? Didn’t that go out with The Beatles? Come on… And “the real deal”? What did that mean, exactly?
But I did go see her, that fi st night in Boston in the summer of 1988. He had convinced me when he told me that she and her people played authentic Indian music, making no concessions to Western tastes. This was extremely clever of him; he knew that with my background I would be unlikely to turn down something like this. Okay, I would go.

What If
What if you were allowed to really speak up? What if you needed no permission to do what you want to do…and to be who you want to be, openly? What if you could stand, even for one moment, one hour, one day, in your most powerful truths: that you have a gift, a message? That you are a gift, and a message… That you are deserving of respect, of love, even of awe… That your heart, your mind, and your very being are mighty bearers of a message so powerful that even you don’t know its full scope…yet. |

What if you could speak without questioning yourself?
And what if in doing this you find that your need to try to be “more compassionate”, “more loving”, “more forgiving”, more anything is not necessary because those things are what you already are at this new-found core, and they now easily and naturally emerge.
What would you be able to do, to be, to have, to say, to ask for?
Anything. Everything.
