What do I have to do? Get a list together and some party fare, and Barb will do the rest (send the EVite and plan the program)
Cost? $15/person with a minimum of 10
Led by Barb Scala, it can be a You-Go-Girl! party loaded with ideas for all of your friends or your own personal “focus” think-tank.
You’ll go home with lots of simple tips, inspiration, tons of support and a smile on your face…instead of one more apple slicer or basket that you just don’t need. Read more

You Go Girl! is my cheer for Chris Rinere of Gogirlwrapperz because she sprouted a great idea, created a product and planted her Bloom Seed to Make It Happen.
As an avid tennis player and mom-on-the-go, Chris froze every time she had to dash off the court in her tennis skirt and out into the cold outdoors to get the kids or be somewhere on a schedule. “There wasn’t enough time to go into the locker room and get tangled up in sweat pants and sneakers and be where I had to go.”
That’s when Chris thought up the idea of a warm skirt with an easy Velcro closure that she could toss over her tennis duds in a flash. Read more

You’ve got a great idea and you want it to sprout. But somehow your idea gets crowded out, smothered and stunted by your weeds. What are your weeds? Weeds can deter you from going after your goals and dreams. It’s self-defeating behavior that stops you in your tracks and interferes with moving ahead with a plan, lifestyle change, project, business venture or creative brainstorm. Unless you identify your weeds and pull them out as they crop up, you’ll continue to get tangled up and allow them to suffocate your growth. Read more
