Changes in Attitudes … (Weekly Girlfriendology Newsletter)

August 14, 2009 – 8:47 am

Little things like changes in the weather affect our hair, our mood or the shoes we wear, right? Big changes, like lifestyle stuff (jobs, relationships, where we live, etc.) impact even more. They create an unsettled environment and sometimes a place we’re not at home with.

Thankfully we have our girlfriends. They’re the calming force, the common factor, the stable ’sister’ in the midst of change. Thankfully they’re there for us. Read More »

Stress, secrets and surprises

July 22, 2009 – 10:45 am

Girlfriends share stuff – that’s what we do. Stuff like secrets, surprises and all the stress we’re going through.

It helps to share. It ‘lightens our load’ to have another caring person help us when we feel weighted down by life, business … aka: ’stuff.’ And it’s fun to share Read More »

Hey Girlfriend – new article on connecting with females (friends & family)

March 7, 2008 – 7:42 pm

Hey Girlfriend! That’s the name of my new column in “Today’s Creative Home Arts” club magazine. I’m very fortunate that the editorial team recognizes and believes in the power of ‘girlfriends’ because now I get to write for, and connect with, these creative subscribers.

Julie Stephani, the editor, is an author, TV personality and creative guru. You might remember her from a podcast we did together on the importance of being creative and crafting with your (primarily female) family and friends. Julie is well respected in the craft and hobby industry and is a very inspiring woman – and, yes!, she is a creative Shero of mine!

I was honored to be accepted into this world of women who are involved in a variety of crafts – home decorating, beading, sewing, painting, etc. They’re very versatile! I wanted to let you know about the Creative Home Arts Club too because you can get a free copy, join it and receive the magazine (and get the “Hey Girlfriend” articles!) or you can just join their online community and have access to so many creative women through their online Forum. Check it out!
