T42-The Power of You, Jacqueline Probert’s Animal Artistry, A Pig in Provence
In T42 the Stella Donne Goddess Gals talk about the power of sanctuary and being yourself. We have all been taught the Golden Rule-”Do unto others as you would do unto yourself.” Most of us treat others with respect, care, dignity, and love. However, have you ever stopped to analyze how you treat YOURSELF? When Cynthia speaks at seminars, she always asks her audience, “Who is the most important person in this room? Inevitably, they point at her and reply “YOU”. “Yes,” she responds, “I AM the most important person in the room to ME, however YOU are the most important person in the room to YOU.” Why is it that we don’t give ourselves the time and power of being alone? A lively discussion that will have you creating space for yourself to enjoy just being in the moment with YOU.

The extravagant, whimsical, and hot-tempered pursuits of the first Queen Elizabeth’s love life is one of the most widely discussed topics in print, yet very little has been written about her as a financial magician. Historian Susan Ronald secures the queen’s place as one of history’s strongest female icons with her new biography The Pirate Queen: Queen Elizabeth I, Her Pirate Adventurers, and the Dawn of Empire.
