A warm welcome to our July Newsletter!

I *love* summertime. The sun shines brighter giving us longer days and flowers are in bloom everywhere. I tend to get out and explore even more during the summertime. Taking long hikes, getting into the water, and going to BBQ's are all a part of my summertime adventures.

Adventure is an important part of life. It's far too easy to over focus on our careers, finances and daily ToDo's. Adventures can bring balance into our lives, helping to break up the monotony and free our minds. During adventures we can stretch into areas of ourselves that lay dormant or simply "let go" expanding into the experience of the present moment.

Both Laura and I wish you a July filled with bright sunshine and adventure. If you're having trouble adding adventure to your life, consider attending our upcoming Passages to Empowerment Women's Group Seminars. Fun and inspiring, our Passages WGS is a great place to reconnect with yourself and what is fulfilling for you.

Aspiring fearlessly,

This Month's Coaching Tip

Need a little motivation to start or finish a goal? Help the process along by "assuming the position". Begin by defining your goal... what do you want and why? Then do a 5 minute visualization. Visualize yourself after you have accomplished your goal. Notice in your visualization how you think, walk, talk... notice how you carry yourself, how you sit and stand. Then Assume the Position! Actually think, walk, talk, sit in the same way today. This will uplift you and give you more energy to take the needed steps.
