Here is a sampling of the presentations Barb can deliver to your group:

Balancing Our Busy Lives
When someone asks “How’s it going?”… do you often answer, “Crazy!  I’m too busy.”  Sending a message that life is so hectic means that your own “to do” list is more important than connecting with others on a deeper level.  If you want to get away from being too busy and put more meaning in your life and relationships, it’s time to reduce the urge to load more onto your plate and manage a full life with less stress. Let’s explore how to find the right momentum to practice living a life more in balance so you can pace the flow of each day and vow never to say, “I’m too busy” again.

A Marketing Plan for You!
We make marketing plans and goal projections every year in our jobs. Why then, don’t we make a plan for our life and how we intend to live it? Barb Scala brings to light the importance of making a personal “marketing plan” to chart your own course and direction. Are there decisions up ahead, personal and professional goals to attain and areas of your life not being fulfilled? By having a plan which incorporates all aspects of your life, i.e. work goals and personal aspirations, choices will be easier to make and life takes on more meaning.

Let’s talk about what happiness means to each sex, why they may experience different levels of happiness at different stages and how they can get more in sync and happy at any age.
