Ch 54: Living on purpose: the possibilities and pitfalls
Because words play such a big part of our purpose, and since they also make an impact on how we show up in the world - highlighting two of the 11 Sanguine Elements - today I wanted to share with you some examples of how the words we use can make an impact out in the world. I’d love to hear how you’re creating change by intentionally choosing your words or actions, what or who you’re speaking up for, or what help you need in learning to expand outwards, to be a cosmopolitan, a citizen of the earth.

Ch 52: The oxygen mask goes on YOU first
One of the concerns that kept popping up when I ran the live version of my free 5 day challenge was that the people in the group were taking care of everyone around them… but NOT taking care of themselves.

I’m sharing with you 8 ideas on how to do just that - t - to take care of yourself, first.
