HI, Taura! Just wanted to let you know what a pleasure it was to meet you after the race. You gotta be on cloud nine accomplishing something so great! And the seminars...well, what can I say about those? Hope you're having an outstanding week, Sister! ~Maria

Namasté Dearheart ~ It was a pleasure have an opportunity to sit down and have lunch with you. I support and honor the visions that you shared with me, I stand in agreement with you and anchor its fruition in prayer. You are a lovely spirit Taura and I grateful to know you. It still amazes me how our journey unfolded. It really makes me rethink whether I am truly showing up for every opportunity that I am blessed with, but all things by Divine timing and grace, right? My husband (Kevin/dubbadoze) really enjoyed you in Dallas as well and we are both looking forward to Denver. I am already counting down. Your heart is blooming, big, and a sweet reflection of the cosmic pool. I miss you already! Many, many blessings to you love. Mwaaaaah! Ny

I am in the fairmont with a couple of roomies; will try to find you--maybe I will be wearing read or pink a lo during the seminarst, or else my funky little cat glasses from the 60s (that oughta look real good during a half-marathon.....) so find me and surprise me! I will look for you!

It is all about "walking the path" right? And nothing about "perfectly" =) Taura I continue to enjoy your writing, your honesty on the thread and how clear you describe your experiences which helps all of us learn and grow. Thank you for being here and making a difference. Love you! ~Penny

Hi Taura, Thanks for your really wonderful words....it is funny I was feeling a little flat the other day...it does not happen often...and then you popped up. I have had a wander through your recent work and I love the honest and clarity of your writing. I am really pleased you stopped by ...you made my day. Kindest Wishes and Kangaroo Kisses Stuart xxx

Thank you for your kind comments on my profile page. I was really amazed, when I heard the news...and continue to be amazed, every time I think about it. Bill was very generous, and I feel blessed to have been given such a gift. Now, my sites are forward, and I look forward to seeing how everyone does in their personal journeys this spring! I believe in you! Kimberly

I Am

I am LOVE. I am a work in progress. I am committed to transforming my life and my world, in mind, body and spirit- one day at a time.

I believe in the power of community and the inherent goodness of humanity. I believe that we can realize Dr. King's beloved community in my lifetime and I work every day to make it a bit more real.

I am committed to my family, my friends, my co-workers and the people I am blessed to work with on a daily basis. I love my community (Oakland CA woot woot!).

My Favorite Charity

Heifer International - Bringing an End to World Hunger Through Unimaginable Blessings

To me, Transformation Means

For me, transformation is about living this quote (from Marianne Williamson):

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

My Goals

To complete the new Challenge stronger, healthier and happier than ever!

To love myself every day, no matter what.

To be a healthy, active and contributing member of the t.com community every week.

To champion the transformation of others, in and outside t.com, every chance i get, and every time i think of it.

To let go of extra body fat and gain muscle mass until my body reaches it's natural weight by: working out 5-6 days/week; eating 5-6 small & balanced healthy meals/day; participating in t.com community; doing my inner work every day.

Once I reach my natural weight, to keep "workin' it" and give back and pay it forward by taking on more leadership in this community.

My Intentions

My intention is to be:
unstoppable.
free.
authentic.
generous.
a champion for the transformation of others.
unabashedly positive.
connected - to myself, to others and to the world around me.
the LOVE.

Who I'd Like to Inspire

Anyone who's looking for inspiration!
