Hey Smart Women! I’m writing to you today from Ft. Lauderdale Florida where I’m visiting my Mom and sister, Rene
for a “girl’s getaway.” We’ve gone to the beach, shopping, seen movies, shared delicious meals and great conversation. I’ll be on my way back to LA later today. I feel so fortunate to have had this time with my Mom and Sister.
Before I left for my trip last Saturday, an interesting thing happened: I lost my cell phone. You can imagine how I felt getting on a plane without a phone–a little anxious without that “link” to my family. There was a “hidden” opportunity: It gave me the time and space to be alone with my “committee of one.” I had time to reflect on my own personal vision without the impulse of calling someone else to see what they thought about my ideas. It also gave me a reason to reach out and talk to new people—going through security, in the airport terminal, on the plane. I am so curious about other people and what they’re thinking. There’s always a silver lining…
The F*r*e*e May Monthly Guest Interview call is coming up quick! On Wednesday, May 27, I’ll be on the telephone with JJ Virgin, interviewing her on a topic that we all struggle with at one time or another—-Weight Loss Resistance. I’ve known JJ for more than 15 years and she walks her talk. She’s always been fit and healthy. Her passion is nutrition and healthy living. In my mind, she’s an expert on the subject.

for his hand and his coach felt that a new glove might be just the thing that he needed. We both enjoyed looking through all of the gloves. He tried on quite a few (The smell of all that leather was so wonderful!). He finally found a glove that was a perfect fit and away we went. He just happened to have baseball practice next so I was excited for him to try out his new purchase. As we approached the field, I noticed that Jack was beginning to feel both anxious and excited at the same time. He wanted to use his new glove but that feeling of being “comfortable” with the old glove took over. The new glove was a n unknown to Jack, so his performance with the new glove at this point was uncertain in his mind. He knew what he could do with the old glove. This got me thinking about how Smart Women feel the fear and do it anyway.
school. My son, Jack, did an experiment that involved an electromagnet. My daughter, Jenna, was curious about how batteries work so she chose to make a “homemade battery.” Needless to say, my husband and I were challenged on both projects! This process got me thinking about how Smart Women could benefit from using “the scientific method” in their own lives both personally and professionally.
