Wellness runs in the family.  I met Nic online, not knowing he was also an acupuncturist, like my sister. Since opening the first Still Point wellness center in Takoma Park 10 years ago, it has become the gold standard to which I (and many others) compare any other wellness center experience.  

Good help IS hard to find, but I’ve found it and the least I can do is not keep her a secret any longer.  I don’t believe in the shortage theory of “If I share you, you’ll get too busy for me.” So, meet my virtual assistant, Becky Linot of The Kansas VA. 

Nic and I tied the knot on September 3rd in beautiful Monkton, MD.  The temperature dropped and humidity cleared out for the most picture perfect day spent outdoors with loved ones.  You can view a few more pictures here...

One change I’ve made since reading The Organized Mind is that I do different tasks in different places, using geography to train my brain to focus on a specific task.  When you try to do everything on one computer screen in one chair, nothing gets done.  Now, mindless surfing and emails happen at the dining table. 

Virginia-based Matt Paxton, host of Hoarders is my celebrity organizer crush (tied with Peter Walsh).  So when Matt posts something, I read it.  Matt recently shared on Facebook an article on excuses to which he contributed.  Of the 5 most popular excuses for keeping things we don’t need, #1 was “In case I need them in the future.”  Sound familiar? 

This week finds me in Cancun, Mexico on an Abraham-Hicks retreat.  The morning workshops are led by Esther Hicks a famous author and speaker on the law of attraction.  I’ve been following these teachings for about a decade and they have completely transformed my mood, my business, my ability to appreciate and bask in the moment, and so much more.
