"Basically, dating is like climbing a volcano and you never know when it's going to erupt, dumping molten lava and burning you."

"The old days are dead and gone days. For what I did in the past I have been punished. I have been cured."

"Somewhere in the sun-washed space between Southern California's hills of sand and the present desolate volcanic sprawl I was crossing, my legs had strengthened, but " invisibly " so had my will. The wisdom of my body had cultivated vibrantly since those sadness-drunken months after the rape when I'd felt so numbed by the hurt and shame that I didn't move further. No longer."

"Another page turns on the calendar, April now, not March..........I am spinning the silk threads of my story, weaving the fabric of my world...I spun out of control. Eating was hard. Breathing was hard. Living was hardest.I wanted to swallow the bitter seeds of forgetfulness...Somehow, I dragged myself out of the dark and asked for help.I spin and weave and knit my words and visions until a life starts to take shape.There is no magic cure, no making it all go away forever. There are only small steps upward; an easier day, an unexpected laugh, a mirror that doesn't matter anymore.I am thawing."

"To say your mindset is critical to your success is a gross understatement-it is the underpinning!"

"Smiling Bloopers Insincere smiling can backfire! (Different from a shy smile that just beckons a friendly "hello.") Transitioning from a smile to a straight face, too quickly, may give others the impression that you are fake or do not like them. Going overboard and smiling all the time, especially when it is inappropriate, will make you appear insincere. If your mouth smiles, but your eyes don't, there is a disconnect that can make you appear less authentic and trustworthy."

"Passion is not just about the object of your focus or desires-it is the compelling emotion, fulfillment, and intense enthusiasm that it engenders."

"Are you being approachable when you are around new people? Ever not know what to say? Simply smile when you make eye contact. This is a subliminal invitation to help others feel safe-allowing a conversation to follow naturally."

"A smile is one of the most powerful and important body language cues we share with others-and as such a heartfelt emotion, it's impossible to express its effect on others in words."

"Unfortunately, unapproachable leaders create a tense environment that may prevent their people from bringing their best strengths and talents or challenges and solutions forward."

"Dragging around pain and attachments from the past can jeopardize your health, your relationships, and your happiness. It can undermine your motivation, discourage your progress, and make everything in life harder. What can you release to simplify your life, lighten your load and find more joy?"

"Are you comfortable and willing to be of service to others, but find it difficult to receive the same in return? Why are people so quick to resist receiving, even when they need the help? Your ability to receive not only opens the space for great things to enter your life, but it returns a gift of grace to the giver."
