Brave Enough To Be Bliss

share myself and my life with a man for the additional joy (and challenges) that can bring. And it is great progress for me to say all this because at least it's honest. One of my bad behaviors with him was always trying to put an end to our relationship or communication when I didn't mean it or want it. It would have been fine if that's what I actually wanted and did, but I was just scared it's what he wanted so I was going to say it first. So many lessons learned that I am grateful for, I just wish it hadn't taken losing him completely. I still miss him. Plus, I'm not being introduced to nearly as many great foods! And these were the encouraging words she responded wit h… I understand firsthand that unresolved relationships are hard to move on from. You had a lot of change to process through in a very short period of time last year. You have to trust that the universe is lining things up in your favor. This is going to be a great year for you. I know it. Praying for peace. While it took years to get to this point, after I feel whatever I feel now, there is such a sense of relief and I can see things from a different perspective. T he tears of New Year’s Day had now given way to pure gratitude for all John had given me and been to me. For the first time ever, I sent him a song with no explanation. Not one single word, just this link. I wanted this sentiment to be unmistakable about the impact he had on my life.

A week later, I received a message on LinkedIn from one of my favorite human beings, Dr. Michelle Robin.

I first met her when I was at Shawnee Mission Medical Center in 2001. She and a community of practitioners broke ground for Your Wellness Connection which is now recognized as pioneers of integrative wellness centers in Kansas City serving thousands of clients each month. The hospital sponsored her events and she partnered with us for many of our events as well. It is one of my all-time favorite collaborations I’ve seen develop throughout my career. Dr. Robin is well known for her ability to create lifetime connections and after more than 20 years, her invitation to me was an excellent example of this. S he hadn’t forgotten I existed even though it had been many years since I had seen her in person. Her personal story is beautiful and inspirational, scroll down to Meet Our Founder for the video.

Ginger Bliss sent the following message at 10:06 PM That is so very kind of you. I actually had considered attending when I first saw it publicized, but my lease is up that day so I decided I better not commit to it...but with your message today I feel like it's meant to be that I attend, so I will just make sure I've got everything moved into storage and the place cleaned in time to get to this event as I'm always up for a shot of inspiration! Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to attending!

Thank you again for your thoughtfulness!
