@saramccann it is a very real fear.  And the more I focus on how I’ll be of service, the less I worry about what others will think of me.  Thank you for your thoughts.

The dreams.

For now I am getting reconnected with my love of dance and art.  I am dancing usually one night a week. But I took a few weeks off to go to a baby shower and go hiking.

I want to be healthy and so I am exercising 6 days a week even if it is only for 15 minutes.

The e-course type  @bradleytmorris is a youtube channel a good way to do the “walk in the park?”

Okay.  Listening.  I know that I will create a great e-course adventure one day for women who want the full transformation of moving from self-loathing and hating their wardrobe to self acceptance and loving their wardrobe.  But for once I am going to listen to my guides.  I want big results for my people and to truly change lives.  But I need to remember that it has taken me 10 years of bumbling around in the dark reading every book I could get my hands on about self esteem and fashion, body types, 5 years of consulting over 50 other women to learn the process (or at least one process) of how to achieve this.  And it took me 5 years of serious hard work to let go of all my old beliefs about myself and what beauty is and to achieve a pretty healthy self acceptance and love of my wardrobe.  Many of my in-person fashion clients see me on an on going basis and when they are ready, we move to the next phase.

SO I will take the day trek route and walk in the park route.  I believe my walk in the park is already in progress with my youtube channel and the videos I create there.  I may decide to do a webinar style first and then the daytrek.

I believe I am ready for a day trek and have had an idea floating around in my head for about a year now about this one.  It will be a wonderful way to begin sales and start earning money with a simple skill that women can start building practice with about self acceptance and learning to like their wardrobe.

Thanks for the tips @bradleytmorris

Taking Inventory

This was an amazing excercise actually.  As part of a online business course I participated in a couple of years ago we we instructed to ask some friends and family what they thought were 3 positive words to describe us.  I had forgotten about this until I did this exercise question what am I skilled at.

And I had tears come to my eyes as I listed a few things myself, but then all the wonderful words I re-read from others.

Creative, Artistic, Amazing Style, Great Fashion Sense, Wisdom, determination, perseverance, honest, self aware, committed to self improvement, patient, intuitive, empathetic, kind, integrity, courageious, brave, poise, loyal, generous, vision, intelligent, knowledgeable, beautiful, ambition, reliable, resilient, passionate, willing, compassionate, tenacious, love and genuine desire to help clients, articulate, strong, strong willed, motivated, hard working, outgoing, confident, good person, treat others well, kindness, generosity, driven, service

I was reminded of all the amazing talents I have but often forget and that is certainly in my backpack.

I listed detailed,  skilled fashion stylist, painter, good understanding of grief, emotions and forgiveness, decent organizer.

I highly recommend doing this exercise if you have a chance.  It is a real eye opener at what you already have within you and a reminder of all those who helped you along the way.
