Dear Girlfriend,
How often are you surprised? Like … pleasantly … happily SURPRISED?!
I believe in ‘what the heck’ – like trying new things to just see what will happen. So, what the heck, a few years ago I contacted a bestselling author of amazing books about female friends and asked if I could interview her. Honestly, I didn’t even expect a response.
Less than 20 minutes later she replied: ‘Sure babe, let’s talk.’ That was the start of our 100 podcasts, 50+ BlogTalkRadio shows and Girlfriendology videos – she’s been our favorite guest and girlfriend ever since.
We’re super giddy that this amazing author, KRIS RADISH, is joining us for our February Girlfriendology-Wine Sisterhood BOOK CLUB on MONDAY NIGHT (7-9pm EST on Girlfriendology.com). She’ll share her clever comments and character insights – as well as possibly some wine dialogue! Join us on Monday night. I think you’ll agree …
Life (and Book Club!) really is better together with your girlfriends!

Girlfriendology BlogTalkRadio guest: SHASTA NELSON, founder of GirlFriendCircles
 We had a great BlogTalkRadio interview with TERA WARNER from WISH: Women’s International Summit for Health. Her inspiring, informative event for women is launching March 8th – check it out!
With a Masters of Divinity degree in spiritual growth and her own private life coaching practice, today’s guest, SHASTA NELSON, is committed to personal and relational health. Shasta knew that she had to do something to bring women together and to encourage the friendships that impact our happiness, wellness and achievement potential as much as our sense of belonging – so she created GirlFriendCircles, the only online community that matches new friends offline by connecting circles of women in local areas. Come join us as we talk with Shasta about female friendship and female friendship conundrums! (Like she shared in this guest blog.) JOIN US!
Call (347)426-3761 or listen online at BlogTalkRadio.com/Girlfriendology, TODAY 11am PST/2pm EST.

 “Live life fully while you’re here. Experience everything.
Take care of yourself and your friends.
Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up!
You’re going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process.
Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes:
find the cause of your problem and eliminate it.
Don’t try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.”
Anthony Robbins
Book clubs, wine, chocolate, G I R L F R I E N D S … life is about the fun stuff. The things we do and places we visit, and the people we’re with while we (as Tony Robbins said above) ‘experience everything.’Today, this weekend, whenever … have FUN, be crazy, be weird. And spend time with the friends who love when you’re completely you – sentimental, sweet, sincere – and silly. Experience life and experience everything – together!
 We’d love for you to ‘experience’ a little survey so we could get to know you a little better. Thanks!
Have a fun, friend-filled week girlfriend !
