Happy Friday Incredible Leading Ladies!
Even though it’s been a crazy long time since I wrote on this blog, I’ve been simply enjoying coaching/knowing several of you, getting to work alongside others, speaking/training in your organizations or conferences, and thinking about the rest of you with much love.
As I wrap up my work for this week I am mindful of the day we are about to celebrate this Sunday and I am basking in the gratitude I feel towards so many incredible women.
If you happen across this blog today, this weekend, or anytime at all, I hope you will join me in a heart-felt “Thank You!” to Mom’s, sisters, friends and women everywhere who have blessed our lives beyond measure.
If you haven’t read it already, or even if you read it a while back when I published it, I invite you to get even more in the spirit by slipping over to the LeadingLadiesLounge.com “Reading Room scroll down, and click on: Magnificent Women- A Mother’s Day Tribute.
For now and in gratitude to each of you, I leave you with these beautiful thoughts:
“My mom is a never-ending song in my heart of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember the tune.”
- Graycie Harmon
“A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.””
- Washington Irving
With love,
Coach Angel

Do you love what you see when you look in the mirror?
Hello Fabulous Leading Ladies,
This morning I was reminded of an up-coming day to celebrate our beautiful, imperfect, diverse, magnificent female bodies and I encourage each of us to find a way to take part in the celebration.
Here's a little clip on it...
Hollywood and the fashion, cosmetics and diet industries work hard to make each of us believe that our bodies are unacceptable and need constant improvement.
Print ads and television commercials reduce us to body parts — lips, legs, breasts — airbrushed and touched up to meet impossible standards. TV shows tell
women and teenage girls that cosmetic surgery is good for self-esteem. Is it any wonder that 80% of U.S. women are dissatisfied with their appearance?
Women and girls spend billions of dollars every year on cosmetics, fashion, magazines and diet aids. These industries can't use negative images to sell
their products without our assistance.
Together, we can fight back.
Love Your Body Day 2007 is October 18

Here's to you and all women everywhere!
With tons of love,

To You, the Dance and a Magnificent Future
Happy Wednesday Leading Ladies!
As you may have noticed, August has been one busy month (I’m just getting a chance to post here and our beloved “Fit To Play Wednesday” coach, Debra, has taken some well deserved time off too). I’m sure you have also found that work, life and hopefully a good dose of play, have made August simply dance by for you as well. I hope you are having the time of your life and making every day, every minute count!
I’m sending ever so much love your way!
Here are my current musings/offerings for today’s post
It’s going to be a rather hot one here in Salem Oregon today (mid 90’s), but now that we have our blessed heat pump/air conditioner installed, I’m looking forward to only being in the heat when I want to be today…what a wonderful thought!
As I consider this, I am reminded of other aspects of our lives where we have the power to invest in changes that allow us to minimize or eliminate the possibility of encountering situations we don’t like or want in our lives. In coaching these things are called “tolerations” (as many of you, particularly my coaching clients, know already).
The parallel is a simple one. In this case, my Hubby and I made a decision to invest in our home’s new capacity for heating and cooling (and not a small investment), which now affords me a magnificent work and living environment (while offering me a choice to bask in the sun and heat when I wish as well). In the same way, we each have opportunities to look around our lives right now and consider what we either want, or no longer want, present in our environment, practices or experiences. “
In this light I offer the following questions and challenges for your consideration…
What are you currently “tolerating?”
(For now just think of one thing/issue situation)
What do you want to experience?
What will it take to get there?
(What do you need to do, stop doing, or do differently to insure the result you’re looking for?)
Once you’ve answered these questions, you are equipped with the tools you need to begin the investment in your most perfect future. Begin investing/taking action today and fill your world with opportunities, choices, freedom and abundance! It’s your magnificent future in the making spectacular Leading Lady—why not make it expansive and beautiful beyond your wildest imaginations?
Here’s to you and the precious gift you are to yourself, to me and to all who have the privilege of being in your life!
Love and abundance to you!
