Go Red For Women

Did you know heart disease is the number one killer of men? Did you know that it's not just a disease that affects men but it's also the number one killer of women? 850,000 people in America die of cardiovascular disease annually... so I ask that you show your support for heart disease prevention by wearing red to work Friday Feb 1st.

Heart disease is preventable by choosing to lead a healthier lifestyle... eat healthy, lose excess weight, quit smoking, know your family history, complete a health assessment and start an exercise program by simply exercising 30 minutes a day 3 or 4 times a week. Take action against heart disease and remember it starts with you. For more information visit http://www.americanheart.org/.

Words of Inspiration

My good friend and mentor, Gabrielle Tucker recently gave me a good piece of advice and I wanted to share it. Gabrielle and I are up and coming business women in the wedding industry, we're also wives and mothers as are many other women entrepreneurs but she said "take five minutes out of your day to blog". Now that's not an Epiphany but those words had a profound effect on me. When will I get the time to blog in between working a full time job, finding time for my husband, going to functions with/for my children, not to mention trying to build my business with everything that entails? It has always been my philosophy of how bad do you want it? If you want something bad enough you have to work for it, so I knew I would have to find time to blog. So I say to up and coming entrepreneurs who are grapling with how to get things done when there seems to be so much to do: put God first, take one day at a time and prioritize ...prioritize...prioritize. I hope these words of inspiration finds someone just as they were needing a little bit of encouragement.
