Right now, today!!!  This for years has been a pet peeve of mine... people tell me all the time "I" empower women... sorry but that  is sickening to me.  I do NOT empower any one.  that is not my focus or my point.   This is my mission I want to offer a safe place for women to give THEMSELVES permission...….  permission to accept themselves, to love themselves, to explore a part of their mind and embrace their beauty! It is a safe place for women to be.....  Machines are powered....  we can place a battery in it and give it power, take the batteries out and you remove the power. Plug in your coffee pot... power, unplug no power.  I DO NOT give anyone power or my power and that is why I say women should not be empowered.  Here is what I say instead...  RETAIN your power, do not replace your judgment for some one else!  Implying we can be empower implies that someone else has our power and can give it to us... but the power in our life is ours t

I posed a question earlier in the week.... "What do you do for self care?" an alarming number of women do NOTHING for themselves! We work, take care of our families, our clients (trying to write this blog I have already stopped 3 times for something the kiddos need)  Why do we feel guilty, taking time for ourselves? Why do we feel guilty for doing things for ourselves?! We do NOT HAVE TO BE A MARTAR!!!! We do NOT have to sacrifice until it hurts... us!  Taking the time to do things for ourselves does not hurt our family!  If we do take time to do things for ourselves... we can not properly take care of others!  We buy a coffee and a "treat"... (5 mins of enjoyment)             at $5 a few times a week that adds up to $260 a year Or we go a few times a year to get our hair done.... ( a few weeks and it fades)           That could run you $900 a year Maybe you get your nails done... (get them redone every two weeks)        at $40
