Hey Divas! Ok, so now that Christmas is over, have you taken any time to review your spending habits and assess the damage? I know many times during the holiday season, we tend to spend more than average. Whether it be for entertaining others by giving holiday parties, planning big dinners, buying outfits, or giving…

The Blessing of Irritation & Inconvenience
Hey Divas! For those of you who have been following me on Facebook, you know by now that I am observing Hanukkah this year. This is my first year after many years of study and I am learning a lot as I go. I’ve been posting a nugget daily about Hanukkah, but I am most…
When the Event is Not About the Event
Hey Divas! I recently had an event where only a few people showed up. I remember before the event saying to myself, “I don’t care who shows up, I’m gonna give them my best and have a good time.” My husband even said to me, “Whether you get 1 customer or 1,000, have fun.” Instead…
The Importance of Honesty in Relationships
Hey Divas! I must be honest. I have been guilty of sneaking and buying items without telling my husband! Oh, am I the only one? Sometimes, it’s just been a pair of shoes, but this time it was something a computer! Remember the other day when I talked about how destiny must be close because…
When is it Time to Fire Your Boss
Ok, Divas, so it happened for me yesterday. I’ve been self-employed for many years in the social service industry. I love children and that love has translated in working as a Teacher, Social Worker, Cheerleading Coach, and even volunteering as a Mentor. Although, I love children, I was not “in love” with what I was…

I have recently formed several mutually beneficial relationships….
When Costs Cutting in Business Cost You Business
So yesterday I visited a local business to get some lunch with my team member after a long, but productive meeting. I wanted to just grab something and go, but was told, “You have to eat the special here to get it.” I replied, ‘That’s fine, we’ll eat here” and proceeded to order “The Special”…
Networking at It’s Best and Worst
Hey Divas! I just wanted to share with you how networking can be good, but sometimes, it can offend and cause other people to be uncomfortable with who you are. Last night, I went out to 2 events, and I did what I naturally do…network. The first event was a Sip N Shop at a…
Just Take Action
Good morning Divas! I’ve been taking the last couple of days and pondering on how sometimes we can get in our own way. Sometimes, we have a dream and it’s so big or seems so overwhelming we stall ourselves, become stagnant, and may just plain out get stuck. What I have been learning over these…
