I'm so excited for this journey, words can't even express the gratitude that I have for all of your stories that you wrote to me over the past few days. I hear you. I see you and I understand your pain. </i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The passion for transformation is true. Our desire to be healthy, wealthy and whole is real and often seems distant and unattainable. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I was recently looking at Jennifer Hudson's ads for her Weight Watcher's campaign and I wonder what it would be like to hear the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>REAL STORY </b></span>of why she chose to say yes to that opportunity. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I'm certain there are monetary and co-branding exchanges that every business person desires but my heart can't help but to remember when she was on American Idol and that wonderful judge Simon said to her... (paraphrased) <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">You don't look the part. You aren't thin enough to be the part. <u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">America will NOT embrace someone that looks like you</span></u><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">.</span> WOW!!! </span></i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Was I the only one that was shocked, stunned and overtaken by such harsh words? I remember being a young girl in 5th grade and weighing 110lbs. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">I was scared to do our public weigh ins with the nurse</span></b>, I was teased by other children because I didn't look like every other thin, young and bouncy girl in my class. I was different and the difference was not celebrated but taunted. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The taunting became a haunting inside of me. While I'm 32 years old today and my drive, energy and passion in this program is real, so is the taunting. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Each time I am scheduled to meet with Heather King, my nutritionist with Spectrum Health Clubs to go over my food choices - good, bad and indifferent... the fear rises. <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Will she yell at me, will she call me Fatty, Fatso, Lard Butt? Will she discuss my differences to the world as though it's something bad and unacceptable. </span></b></span></i> It's funny because if you knew Heather, you'd know that she would never speak that way to me or to any of her clients but that doesn't stop the fear from <b>Chapter 10 in my life that began on a playground, in recess, in Social Studies or even in the lunch room of my elementary school. </b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>I don't know where you stand in the this journey but I want you to know the negative chatter has an <i>OFF SWITCH</i>. You have the power of choice to begin a <i>NEW CHAPTER</i>! </b></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Acceptance is not about being skinny, sexy, alluring or even a certain size. Acceptance begins from within. Whether the conversation is weight, promotion on your job, creating a new business, whatever current desires may be...our initial place of advancement has to begin with a challenging look in the mirror to know and accept the authentic, true and real parts of who we've been marvelously created to be. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Statistics show us that over 190 million Americans are dealing with the disease of Obesity. I beg to differ. The daunting epidemic of EXCESS in our lives exists with each and every one of us. Excess in our spirits, our souls, excess in debt and even excess in self-doubt and fear. The issue of OBESITY does not just live in our weight challenges. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cc0000;">Confessional: </span></b></span>I've been on the road for the past 10 days and when I began the journey, I had my protein shakes packed, I stopped for deli meet, fresh veggies and everything I could think of to be healthy. The longer the days became and the more tired I was mentally and physically, I started to make unhealthy choices. My excuse, I deserve it. You've put in a hard day, encouraging others to change their lives and choose differently. Here's a reward for you. </span><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The question I had to ask myself was,<i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"> "When will you believe that you deserve a reward that DOES NOT DAMAGE YOU?" </span></i>Yes, I ask myself the hard questions. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #3d85c6;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">As I move forward in this journey, it's not fair for me to be the teacher and not the student as well.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I've decided that the best way to release agreements with the taunting of my past and fears that I'll never fully understand how to make healthy choices for my life (in every area) is to begin a new reward system; rewards that add value to my life. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hi Rockn' Purpose Blogspot Followers, </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I can't believe the journey that I've decided to embark on and yes, I am asking that you join me in the walk, the growth... the challenge. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">If you've followed me for sometime, you know that I was once <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>nearly 350lbs.</b></span> and auditioned for <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">NBC's reality show, "The Biggest Loser"</span></b>. I knew with all hope that I would indeed get selected. I had the passion, the energy, the drive and oh, the WEIGHT. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">My eyes well with tears just to share the story with you because I truly realized that the weight was a coat of pain. It truly represented rejection, fear, anxiety, self-doubt and abandonment that I'd owned physically, emotionally and spiritually for far too long. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Sadly, I wasn't accepted onto the Biggest Loser but I didn't allow that to stop me. In 2006 I made the decision to <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">RELEASE THE WEIGHT</span>. For 2 years, I held a proper nutrition plan, worked out with a trainer and before I knew it - <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">165lbs.</span></b></span> was released off my body. The challenge: I never could see the change. As much as I loved the new clothes, the attention and the encouraging words, my internal chatter said loudly and clearly <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><i>"IT'S NOT ENOUGH!"</i></span></b> </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Now, 4 years later I have attracted nearly 50lbs. back on my body through the connection with fear, poor self-image, hurt, anger and resentment that I preferred to mask under a busy schedule, travel, hotel food and the list goes on and on. <br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I have discovered that WEIGHT RELEASE is so much bigger than many of us know or understand; however, the idea that we need to CONQUER weight is just another daunting task to add to our lives. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I invite you to be with me over the next 16 weeks while we discuss the weight loss process. I have invited several partnering businesses to join me in a program entitled Get F.I.T. meaning to <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Focus. Intensify. Transform. </span></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><br />
</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">F.I.T. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">is a weekly documentary of my current journey with 4 new partners that truly believe in my success and YOURS! I can't wait for you to meet them! Each week I will share my weight loss progress, my food choices, my triumphs and yes.. my failures. </span></span></span></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><br />
</span></span></span></b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I, like many of you live a full, busy and fast-paced life that has allowed me more excuses than I'd like to admit. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">In the past, I would have hidden behind well crafted pictures, dim lighting and selective camera shots to hide the challenges. Today, my freedom lies in the journey. <i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Saying YES is one of the most empowering choices we can ever make to change our lives. Saying YES and bringing someone along for the ride is how we begin to change our world. </b></span></i></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Share with your friends, family and colleagues about this documented journey and let's begin the transformation of our personal bodies, our families and our communities. </span><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">The history behind dear <span style="font-size: large;">St. Patrick</span> and what indeed gave him the right the be deemed a "saint"' is a bit sketchy. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">However, I love the tales of his capture into slavery as he was brought into Ireland, the story of his break from his master and his bold walk into his future as he baptised, ordained and called for change in a foreign land where he seemingly had absolutely <strong><span style="font-size: large;"><em>NO RIGHTS</em></span></strong>! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">St. Patrick is quoted for sharing that in his captivity, he gained his greatest strength and experienced a renewed sense of relationship with God. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Georgia;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><span style="font-size: large;">It makes me think of our present day. </span>Many of us feel captive, held hostage or even slaves to the lives we live. Our jobs, marriages, relationships bind us more than they free us and we wonder, when will the tide turn and life will begin to work in my favor? </span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">We ask the question. We ask the question ... and we ask the question. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">It brings me great joy to declare that today is <strong>YOUR </strong>day! </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">Your life is truly the sum of all choices & decisions that you've made in life. If you aren't pleased with what's in front of you, <span style="font-size: x-large;">CHOOSE DIFFERENTLY</span>. There's so much power to know and understand that we get to be the co-creators of our destiny. Working hand in hand with the masterful creator of our beings. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><span style="font-family: Georgia;">The sacred text of the Christian faith declares that God can do anything for us, far beyond what we imagine or even dream of. <span style="font-size: large;"><strong></strong></span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia;">Allyson, is it really that simple? </span></span></div><blockquote><span style="font-family: Georgia;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: large;"><strong>Your wildest dreams are waiting to come true and all you have to do is choose. </strong></span></span></blockquote><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">St. Patrick worked for nearly 6 years toiling for his master. One day, he heard a voice say that his captivity was over. <em>Guess what?</em> He simply walked away and stepped into his freedom. On the otherside of his captivity awaited his purpose and we celebrate him annually as a result. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">May I be the voice for you today? <strong><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">"Your captivity is OVER!"</span></strong> Say yes to the beauty of who you are. Know that you are perfect in your being and it's simply your humanity that's working feverishly to catch up. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: Georgia;">Enjoy the fulfillment of your purpose and the newness of your liberty. Be FREE on this remarkable St. Patrick's Day. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br />

<blockquote><span style="font-size: large;">Dr. King, we thank you for your incredible efforts to free African-Americans and fight racial injustice.

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>H</strong></span>ave you ever had a<em> "WOW Moment"</em> where you wanted the entire world to hear what you just heard, see what you just saw and experience the identical thrill that you held in your space at that time? <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">That was my morning. I attended an morning inspirational call with my dear friend Lisa Nichols. If you aren't aware of who she is, you are sooooo late. Google her and your life will be enriched like never before. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">She said something that I have to repeat to you and to myself over and over and over and over and OVER AGAIN!! <em><span style="font-size: x-large;">She said, "2010 won't happen to you. 2010 is the year you create!" Tears well in my eyes as I rest on those words. </span></em><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It doesn't matter how many times I hear it, it still shocks me to know and understand that I have the ability to write my destiny and carve out my future. <span style="color: red; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">My mind wants to <strong>stop</strong> at the door of impossible and pause at the crossroads of never gonna happen and girl, you are crazy!</span> Yet my spirit leaps with the reminder and squeals with joy like a child running to catch the ice cream truck. The tune that my "ice cream" truck is playing houses the words, <strong><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS", sans-serif;"><span style="color: #38761d;">'Take the limits off!' 'Run on and see what the end is gonna be!'... and even louder, <span style="font-size: large;">'DREAM, THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM!'.</span></span> </span></strong><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">AAAAHHHH!!! My emotion is high right now and I pondered on waiting to write you from a more stable, steady, quieter point of view but I could not afford to allow this moment to pass and not share it's authenticity. 2010 is on its way. In less than 3 full days, we will walk over the threshold of a new year. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><strong><span style="color: #0b5394;">Do you know what it will bring? Have you written the vision or decided that whatever will be will be?</span></strong> <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">If you are anything like me, 2009 wasn't a bad year but it wasn't my best year either. In reflection, I accomplished major goals and made life-altering decisions that I am grateful for but the question is: <em><span style="font-size: large;">"Would I do it the same?"</span></em><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="color: red;"><strong>My answer, "NO!" </strong></span><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">2010 is the year that I choose to be the blessing that I've been waiting to experience for myself. I trust that as I bless myself with a <strong>whole and complete Allyson</strong>, the by-product for my friends, family and community is they will enjoy the journey along side of me. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">2010 is the year that I work to liberate ME and know that I will in turn be <em>contagious and create liberty for those that I am connected to. </em><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">2010 is the year where I commit to <span style="font-size: large;">TAKE THE LIMITS OFF!!</span> Creating the experience of increase, abundance, stretching and becoming. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Why relive 2007, 2008 or 2009? Why do it? Why not do it differently than you ever have before? <strong><span style="font-size: large;"></span></strong><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: large;"><em>You have nothing to lose but everything to gain. </em></span></strong><br />

<strong><span style="font-size: large;">Christmas Affirmation:</span></strong> <br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"><em>When I make Christmas about sharing rather than getting, I always feel better. </em></span> - <span style="font-size: x-small;">Ray Davis, The Affirmation Spot </span><a href="http://www.theaffirmationspot.com/"><span style="font-size: x-small;">http://www.theaffirmationspot.com</span></a><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: x-large;"><strong>T</strong></span>he season of Christmas will always create a space for reflection. It's up to us whether we choose to lean into the reflection or run scared at what may appear in our life's mirror. <br />
<br />
Today, I had a conversation with one of my incredible mentors and she asked me a question concerning my family, what my holiday season would look like and how I feel about the choices that I've made. <br />
<br />
<em>From the sweetest position of defense</em>, I answered her: "I made that choice years ago and I'm still okay with making that choice." My answer was simple, clean and made total sense to me. She responded just as sweetly as I had with a <span style="font-size: large;">dagger that ripped through the pain of my heart</span> when she said, <em>"Do you still have to continue making that choice or could it be time to make a new one?"</em><br />
<br />
If you've read my book, you know that I was raised by a single mother who did the most amazing job raising my sister and I. However, as time progressed, like many families... we formed judgements of one another that continued to be fed with life circumstances, family arguments, hurts, misunderstandings and the list continues. <br />
<br />
I realized that in all my acute awareness of transformation, growth and personal development, I'd decided that one chapter in my life, let's call it Ch. 54 had determined how I would respond to my sister and my mother from this point forward. No matter that my current reality is Ch. 234, that old chapter is still dictating how I will show up for them, how I believe they will show up for me and it continues to form the reality that I live in without space for evolution, forgiveness or love. WOW!! I said it, out loud and to the world. <br />
<br />
I decided to write it to you, my friends and followers because I believe in repentance, authenticity and change. I can already hear your question: Will I share with my mother and my sister? Yes - the bravery will live on - Ha!! <br />
<br />
I invite you to engage with me in creating a new series of life, a new chapter that includes the ingredients that you wish to experience. For me, I call forth <span style="color: #a64d79;">LOVE, PATIENCE, JOY, KINDNESS, SOFTNESS OF SPEECH, CLEAR COMMUNICATION, WARM HANDS AND GENTLE TOUCHES; I CALL FORTH TRUTH, INTEGRITY, FAITH AND PERSERVERANCE, UNDERSTANDING, RELEASE OF JUDGEMENT, FEAR, INHIBITIONS, FEAR OF FAILURE AND HURTS FROM THE PAST. </span><br />
<br />
I have lived with band-aids over old wounds for <strong>FAAAAAAAAAARRRRR</strong> too long and <span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I refuse to allow another series of my life to begin with <strong>festering, decaying spaces</strong> that create a vortex where love and new beginnings gets <strong>sucked up</strong> with no expectation to truly live. </span><br />
<br />
The real meaning of Christmas is that with Christ's birth, we experienced new beginning, renewal of hope and the promise from a God that truly loved us & with unending love says <span style="font-size: x-large;"><em>keep moving forward, your best is yet to come.</em></span><br />
<ul><li>What have you decided would exist from this point forward and yet today, you CHOOSE to release and start anew? </li>
<li>In the true spirit of Christmas, what is your affirmation for this holiday season? </li>
<li>Breathe. Allow the holy spirit to flow over your wounded places and experience the wonder of healing. </li>
<li>Soak in your new space of greatness, truth and joy. </li>
</ul>I walk with you into new places of abundance, understanding and love. <br />
<br />
<em>Your Sister in the Journey,</em> <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: large;">If you were truly <span style="font-size: x-large;">FREE</span>... What would <span style="font-size: x-large;">Freedom</span> look like to you? </span></strong><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">As I walk toward the new year, I am amazed at what 2009 looks like in replay mode. Honestly, I would not have expected 1/2 of what I experienced to show up and that includes good, bad and some indifferent. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It takes me back to a course that I took last year with the Association for Christian Character Development <a href="http://www.accd.org/">http://www.accd.org/</a> called Discovery. During this course, they bring up the conversation of intentions. The idea is that what you intend in life creates the results that you experience. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">When I reflect over this year, I realize that I intended to write a book, I intended to build my brand and visibility within the business world, I intended to launch a social networking campaign that would expand my national community... however, I don't know that I ever intended to experience Joy, Love, Freedom, Hope, Peace. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I know that when my world became chaotic, I would call it forth and there it would appear. Seems reactive for a Life Coach that teaches being PROACTIVE is the best way to hold on dearly to sanity and balance. Ha! I have always been and will always be transparent with you. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So, here it is a few days away from 2010 and I have decided that my intent is to experience Freedom. My intent is to experience Love, Peace, Joy, Harmony and Balance. <em><span style="font-size: large;">As I intend, I will experience and I will become.</span></em> The greatest part of this new reality is that your being is contagious and what wonderful expressions to share as I move forward throughout life. <br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">What are your intentions to BE in this world? <br />
</div><br />
</li>
<li><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">What choices could you make in this moment that would celebrate where you've been and acknowledge that growth is still on the horizon and you are in for the challenge? <br />
</div><br />
</li>
</ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I'm excited to share the end of this remarkable season with you and I look forward to the possibility and joy of what is to come. <br />
