Welcome to 2009; a brand new year full of possibility and adventure. What will you experience this year? What will you create? 2009 can be like a fresh start, a new beginning. How will you awaken to YOU and bring your dreams and goals into fruition?

We've been busy bees at ALC designing a new empowerment program for WOMEN WORLDWIDE!  Imagine joining with like minded women on a journey to self confidence, connection and clarity! I've combined all of my previous seminars, teleclasses and entire private appointment program into a whopping nine month group coaching program for women. We're still putting everything together, yet you can click here for a sneak preview of the big enchilada of empowerment coaching!

Here's to amazing success and empowered women everywhere!

Aspiring fearlessly,

This Month's Coaching Tip: Goal Setting

Setting goals is an excellent way to define a pathway for our future and propel us toward who we are and what we want. Yet, in the process of creating goals we often turn them into heavy expectations that burden us, lead to procrastination and fizzle out in disappointment.

As you define your 2009 goals, consider how you can enjoy the process as you create your vision. Connect with the feelings you believe accomplishing your goal will create and bring them into each moment, TODAY. Allow your goals to flow with your life versus control it. Avoid words such as, "should", "have to", "supposed to" and use "want to", "willing to", "choose to" instead. Each day, take just one small step in their direction and include lots of praise and encouragement as you do.
