Bless Wendy's heart, she tagged me so it looks like I am it. :)

Now I am supposed to share five things that many people may not know about me. Then I get to have fun and tag five other bloggers to do the same!!

Here goes...

1) I am a sappy romantic -- you know the "sweep you off your feet" kind.

2) I used to sing in a rock band when I was in high school -- too funny.

3) Prior to singing in a rock band, I sang opera once in a vocal competition. My sincerest apologies still go out to the judges.

4) When I was 15, I stood outside Mick Jagger's hotel room with some girlfriends, listening to him sing, but too afraid to knock on the door.

5) When I graduated from college I got a job working in a bank. That was during a time when I could not even balance my checkbook. ;)

OK, who is going to be next??

How about...Tony, Phil, Stacy, Steve, and Matt

Thanks, Wendy ! This was fun!!

It is truly fun to set intentions and see them come to fruition. It's not just the act of setting the intention, but really putting the wheels in motion that makes it exciting.

Many moons ago I set the intention to have a call-in radio show or a podcast where people could gain information and a bit of coaching around important life and business issues. Well, yesterday while doing some aimless searching on the Internet (as one does on a Saturday morning) I came across a great site called BlogTalkRadio. Joila! This was just the impetus I needed to set the wheels in motion.

I'll be honest, while a feeling of excitment rushed through me, along with it came a bit of fear. OK,maybe more like a lot of fear...my self-doubter was screaming loudly in my ear, "What if no one calls in? Are you sure you really want to do this? Do you have what it takes?"

Flicking the little bugger off my shoulder, I created an account and scheduled my first live radio show scheduled to air on the 2nd of December. This is going to be a blast and I am looking forward to connecting with many people on the show!

Now I am off to accomplish my next intention...my workshop! Stay tuned. ;)

I am tired, but in a really good way. I just spent the last several days at a coaching conference, connecting with colleagues, reuniting with friends that I have not seen in a few years, and taking in some awesome information.

In one of the break out sessions I attended we were asked, "What is courage calling you to do?" Pretty heavy question...a potential stumper. Interestingly enough the answer came to me instantly. Courage is calling me to show up fully as me and trust that who I am is enough.

OK, it's not that I have not been showing up as me, but I realized that I have, at times, conformed just to fit in. I have, at times, settled in fear of not being accepted. I have, at times, tolerated things that did not feel in alignment with me because I did not wish to rock the boat.

No more. I am committed to fully showing up as me...warts and all. To trusting in myself and my capabilities to make a difference. You see, I also realized that trust is like a muscle, the more you use it the stronger it gets...so here's to trust and showing up.
