Refreshing summer is upon us, enjoy and share!

The month of June is a re nourishing time of year for me.  It's when we get to take vacation and kick back a little bit,  slow down the pace and soak up goodness.  The beach has been magnificent with dolphins and Manta Rays swimming by so you can reach out and touch them.  What a wonder! 

July begins with even more plans for fun and relaxation.  Come join me this summer by following me on twitter  @coachannwillis or like me on Facebook -lets up lift each other with thoughtful moments and reflections.   I am looking forward to hearing from you and sharing my thoughts.  Your  words matter to me and it will make my  summer that much more fun hearing from you.  Keep up on all the events I have and remember my free mini tool kit to get you started with a Life Coach -Experience how easy and joyful the lifestyle coaching process can be.  Summer here we come!

Puppy love- retriever and shitzu- differences attract

My puppy dog is a special little spirit. When I look at him he just makes me smile. He is so dang cute and has great energy. He loves to play with a big retriever named Bucky, and he is a ten pound shitzu named Jett. They are like mutt and Jeff.

How different they are in stature, color, and energy.  If you find you are attracted to the energy of another, look to see the kindness you can share.   Be open to friendship and embrace the differences that add to who you are yet to become.

New beginnings-there is never a bad time to start over.

June is also graduations and weddings which means endings and new beginnings.It’s also birthdays and class reunions. Some celebration is in order and that is what I'm up to this summer. Celebration. The 4th of July is around the corner so remember to celebrate freedom.

Just how do celebrate? Do you celebrate important milestones like retirement for instance. My best friend just retired after 36 years of being a teacher. Lots of celebration and reflection. Retired now what?

New beginnings has a nice ring to it, I think. You can have a new start at any time. And a new start is a reason to celebrate! Or just some days you deserve to just have a start over. So take it! New beginnings can be small steps taken one at a time, but if you are up for it take a hop, then step and throw in a skip for good measure.

June refresing, but busy WNOCC fund raiser and making friends in process!.

Lots of networking and making friends along the way this month.  The WNOCC ladies had a fund raiser for scholarship award.  Each year a recipient from Hodges College gets an opportunity to be the lucky winner. This gave me exposure to many people and over 50 names of people that I actually spoke with. 

The event was uplifting and not just cards in a bowl.  So if you want to increase your clients and network, try a larger venue. Think of 50 people all know at least one person they could refer to you that's 50 more leads.  Good leverage.

A warm mention to the networking women in the health care industry I met.  Lately it has been a pattern in my networking to meet and great them.    Lots and lots of them.  From Funeral owners to Hospice to in home health.  Like at the blood mobile waiting for anyone able to give some precious life force. Makes me appreciate my blood and that I have enough of it and that's it healthy.  All these great caregivers deserve a round of well wishes and lots of love, hugs and a big pat on the back for jobs well done.  We all need you. Thank you.
