Finding BALANCE in an “everybody wants a piece o’ me” world.
As an international speaker, entrepreneur and mother of three, I know “busy”. But I also know the Law of Attraction, so here are a few powerful tips for finding Balance when you feel like you are being pulled in a hundred different directions.
Balance is a choice. It begins with your thought. You have the ability to talk yourself in and out of balance. It starts with the most frequently asked question “How are you?”

I'm worried about how to help my son and daughter turn into ethical, caring people, especially with all the questionable influences out there these days. Any ideas?
It's a real issue. With the loss of community in the past two generations (now "the village it takes to raise a child" looks more like a ghost town), an increasingly "look out for yourself" economy, and a vulgar and self-absorbed culture penetrating every corner of our lives - including children's television and advertisements - yes, we really have to wonder these days about how best to encourage good character in our precious children.
I don’t think so…
Affiliate marketing for stay at home moms works well because it enables women to turn their passion into profit. Because the “store” is on the Internet and never closes, women can earn money 24 hours a day 7 days a week. For women who want to stay at home full time with their children while earning extra cash, affiliate marketing offers the bridge that connects the best of both worlds.
A mule to carry it all would be nice too!
In my ‘20s I traveled for 6 weeks through Europe with one backpack that I carried myself. For our week-long honeymoon, my husband and I took one large suitcase between us. Just over 2 years later, my husband, 11-month-old daughter, and I had an overflowing luggage cart that held 2 large suitcases (overweight), 2 stuffed-to-the-brim carry-ons, and a car seat. In hindsight, we should have added our playpen to the pile, since the hotel-issued crib for that trip was pretty wobbly.
Though the headlines may scream recession, there are also lots of travel deals to be had, as resorts lower prices to fill empty seats. Lots of Canadians are heading south for some sun and sand, or taking to the ski hills. We know about sunscreen and passports, but there are preparations for your home also. If you thought the worse thing that could happen in your absence is a moldy apple on the counter or a dying fern, think again. When you go away during the winter months, there are lots of risks involved with leaving your home empty.
