What’s your Niche Girlfriend? | #NAMS, Friendship & What’s to come …
August 22, 2011 – 11:33 pm
Your friends care about what you care about, right? Friends notice what you like or don’t like. Girlfriends pay attention to the special things that make you YOU.
That’s just what friends do. We pay attention to your likes and dislikes, the things you’re passionate about and the people/things in your life who make you happy. And in doing so, we get to know the little things in your life that you love, the special talents and traits, and the details that make you YOU. We notice the characteristics about you that make up who you are and can often identify opportunities for which you are well-suited.
Wikipedia defines ‘niche’ as ‘any position of opportunity for which one is well-suited, such as a particular market in business.’ It comes from Old French niche, from nichier (“make a nest”) (modern French nicher), from Latin n?dus (“nest”).
This past weekend I had the opportunity to attend a conference based on Read More »

August 17, 2011 – 7:25 am
Seriously?! Can you believe it’s Back-To-School Time? Thankfully we have our girlfriends to help us adjust and get ready for another BIG year.
Each week we feature some girlfriend gifts as a way of showing your fab friends how much they mean to you. It could be for a birthday or sad day, a just-because-you’re-special day or maybe, at this time of year – aka: back-to-school, it’s a thoughtful way of acknowledging a child going off to school can be an emotional time (or time for celebrating!). And, for our girlfriends who are teachers or work in education, it’s a time of getting back to work and a girlfriend gift (aka: teacher gift) might just cheer up their day.
So, in honor of moms, teachers and all the fab friends with birthdays or special days at this end of summer, here’s a few thoughtful ways to say Read More »

Back to School Lunches | Girlfriend Advice from Real Life
August 16, 2011 – 8:20 am
Hey Girlfriend — are you and your kids ready for school to start?
Many of the school districts in the mid-west have already begun classes with the remainder set to start in the next few weeks. Even in areas of the country where kids don’t return to school until after Labor Day, there seems to be a sense of getting ready for back to school.

So here are five tips that actually work in my house. I hope they help in your house too.

Today on The Balancing Act (the morning women’s show on Lifetime), first I learned how to get Read More »
