I Am

I am a person that is living a continued evolution and Transformation towards a meaningful life of growth and service to others. Thanks to small daily actions and the love of a Universal Power greater than myself, I am moving in the right direction and achieving my goals.


(Logo developed by: chrisharo)

My Favorite Charity

United Animal Nations (UAN.org) - Provides emergency sheltering, rescue and disaster relief to animals stranded or displaced by natural disasters.

To me, Transformation Means

To live a continuous process or evolution that results in a great outcome, and a better state from where I started. This is precisely what I committed with body, heart and soul to do this time. Every moment is an opportunity to take action and another step forward............................................................................... I am doing as much as I can! I am doing the best I can! And I Do Not Quit! Even if I have to pick up myself and try again.

My Goals

My Goals: (for 08/22/2009)
1)I feel balanced and spiritually connected
2) I do not drink alcohol or eat refined sugars
3) I finished my Transformation Challenge and got invited to the October National Transformation Conference in Colorado - Meet Bill Phillips.
4) “If it’s not a positive comment or thought about someone, I turn it into positive”
5) I wear loosely my favorite size 6 pants

My Intentions

WHY do I want to achieve all that? I must have a lot of energy to enjoy the precious gift of life to the fullest. I want to have energy so I can help others. I want to feel PROUD of myself. I want to be a great example for my family and loved ones. I am privileged to have received this body and great gift of Life. It is my responsibility to nourish it, strengthen it and care for it. I need to maintain it in the best shape I can. This is how I show appreciation and gratitude. It helps me be ready to give a hand to whoever may need it.

Who I'd Like to Inspire

I would like to INSPIRE my family, my loved ones. I would like to INSPIRE anyone that feels tired of trying and failing. I would love to share my passion and love for the little things in life that make it so magnificent. I want to share the energy that I feel when I finish my intense workouts and get that sense of accomplishment. It is like an additional VICTORY. Oh my! I wish I could bottle that stuff!!
