Eileen Lebowitz - Certified Transformational and Spiritual Life Coach

Eileen Lebowitz is a Certified Transformational and Spiritual Life Coach, poet and freelance writer. She volunteered for many years with organizations that provided services for women and children that were abused and neglected. In 2006 she formed Rte, Ltd. “Resolve To Evolve” a company dedicated to the empowerment of women.

She is the founding Muse of “Out Of Our Minds On To Paper” a Women’s writers group and the author of “Out Of My Mind On To Paper." The group was formed to give women a place where they could come express and decompress, without feeling judged and with the understanding that there is no "Right way to Write." Feel free to express yourself on the “Out Of Our Minds On To Paper” page (www.resolvetoevolve.net).

Eileen has developed a coaching process that is simple and successful. She is very realistic and knows life gets in the way and can be stressful and challenging. The fact is most of what happens in life is out of our control, but, there are things we can control. However, to control these things choices have to be made and action must be taken. We got to where we are, how we live and what behaviors we have by a process that didn’t happen overnight.

Eileen hears a lot of wishes: I wish I wasn’t a procrastinator, I wish I could lose weight, I wish I could stop smoking, I wish I could quit my job, I wish I had more self-confidence, I wish I could leave my relationship, I wish I followed my dream, I wish for self-esteem, I wish I respected myself, I wish I had more patience, I wish I didn’t feel like a loser and the wish list goes on and on.

As a Life Coach passionate about helping women find their strength and realize their wishes, Eileen wishes she had a magic wand that she could wave and bam everyone’s wishes would become a reality.  But, she doesn’t. However, she can’t impress strongly enough how important it is to work with a process and taking action are both necessary in order for change, transition and transformation to be achieved.

Eileen wants to help you make your year a Happy Wish Year. It’s all up to you. Take action and make your wish call or email today. Always with Hope !!! Eileen

Tori Hartman - Psychic

Tori Hartman, founder of Tori Hartman, Inc. and gifted psychic, was born and raised in New York's Greenwich Village during the 1960s. The environment in The Village at the time was "anything goes," and little by way of self-expression was questioned. Creativity included love beads, astrology and the Beatnik scene at the White Tavern. Tori's mother was a playwright and antique dealer, and her father was a war veteran and actor.

Tori remembers life in Greenwich Village as a favorite time when she and her mother lunched with one neighbor, renowned chef, James Beard, then shared afternoon tea with another, the poet, ee cummings. Tori's parents discovered her strange visions one summer evening during a party at their country home.

When her mother asked the then 8-year-old to go inside and get something from the kitchen, Tori casually said no, because she didn't want Mrs. Bulmer telling her what to do. Her mother was stunned. Before the Hartmans had bought and remodeled their home, it had been owned by the Bulmers-all of whom were long deceased.

Today, Tori has worked many decades as an intuitive supporting her clients in achieving their greatest potential in love, work, health and more. Her message is one of empowering people to use their own intuition to live the life of their dreams. According to Tori, all psychics have mastered the ability to tap into the frequency of Spirit. And this ability IS teachable and not limited to a select few!

Anyone can tune into the frequency at which their desires operate.

The most powerful way to understand this concept is to experience it. Therefore, Tori has created short 5-7 minute meditations to allow you to powerfully shift your state into the new frequency that your greatest desires operate in.

The meditations are all blissfully short, which is enough time to spiritually change your state!

Normally offered as part of her meditation library, Tori is making her 5 most popular meditations available for FREE. By signing up below, you’ll gain access to the following meditation:

Expand Your Capacity to Love
Chakra Magnetizing
Finding Your Artistic Voice
Finding Serenity
The Trance of Inspiration

These magnetizing meditations are available for you to try for FREE by clicking below:

These brief but powerful meditations serve to reframe the way you perceive your own life so you can live in the state of creativity and magnetizing. Being introduced to this work will create a bridge to powerful intuitive development that Tori believes everyone has the capacity to expand.

If any of this resonates with you, it is a signal that this work will change you life. To learn more about the work Tori does, visit www.ToriHartman.com.

Stephanie Riseley – Go From Victim to Victorious! Do it now!

What if you could get a brand new perspective on the life you live now? What would it feel like if you could see your life as “A Heroine’s Journey?" So instead of seeing every serious problem you encounter as a major catastrophe, or instead of feeling every major bump in the road as a reason for you quit, you could change your whole world view entirely? What would it feel like if you could perceive your life, your problems, your problematic past for what they are – empowering learning opportunities? Soul-agreed-upon learning opportunity down here in Earth School!  Fantasy, you say? Silly fiction, you’re thinking? Just another bit of fabricated fluff? 

Not so fast, my fellow, feisty Spirited Women! You can change your life, and I’m here to tell a bit of how I learned hard way! (Read the whole story in: Love From Both Sides – A True Story of Soul Survival and Sacred Sexuality, Findhorn Press. Or read free chapters now at www.StephanieRiseley.com).  

When my darling lawyer (soul-mate) husband died in my arms ten years ago, and left me in $180,000 of debt, with no insurance, no retirement – absolutely nothing - I was devastated and panicked, to say the least. I was 54, and totally nuts!  But now, I can say without reservation, that my own “learning opportunity” is what pushed me (like off a steep cliff!) into my own life’s purpose, which is healing and helping people find their own purpose and get happy!

Now, I’m now healthy, happy (and having the best sex of my life!), because I refused to be a victim and instead, owned my power, and became victorious. And that’s what I help my clients do, and I can help you too!

I teach people how to plug into their power by using many techniques. Because my background is from UCLA’s Neuropsychiatric Institute, I begin the newest brain research, which proves that it easy to CHANGE YOUR BRAIN!  For instance, your brain has a “set point.”  And now it might be set to “disappointed;” I call that “Poopy Brain.”  With training, (using cognitive behavior modification) you will learn how to “delete self-destructive thinking.” You can learn how to flip a switch that pops you into “enthusiastic thinking,” or what I call “Puppy Brain!” Just think about how a puppy perceives its universe, okay? Wouldn’t that be fun if you could do that, too?

Then I help people access the deepest part of their subconscious mind, using a Jungian technique. I help people access the “Inner Freighted Three Year Old,” or “Angry Inner Thirteen-Year-Old,” calm them down and get them comforted. (Without using drugs, chocolate or alcohol!)

After that, I do a Past Life Regression, where clients finally can connect to their own core self. The Eternal Self. I trained with Dr. Brian Weiss, the world famous psychiatrist, and in that session, clients see their own birth, how they were “welcomed into the world,” they see “why they incarnated, why they chose the parents, sisters, husbands they did. They see a past life, what happened, and they see their own death! That’s the game changer!

So begin to see your own life for what it is – a grand “learning tour opportunity!” A way of discovering who you are and what you came in to achieve!

Decide to go from Victim to Victorious!  It’s fun!  And you’ll be proud of yourself when you look back on this lifetime!

Stephanie Riseley welcomes hearing from you. She can be reached at www.StephanieRiseley.com, or by calling 323-933-4377. To buy her book visit: http://sriseley.findhornpress.com/.

Misty A. Oaks - Attorney, Speaker, Radio Personality & Writer

Attorney Misty A. Oaks, founder and principal member of The Oaks Firm, stepped out on faith when she started her own legal practice in 2009. What started as just a dull roar turned into roaring thunder, when considering the number of satisfied clients and the rapid growth of the Firm. The Oaks Firm, based out of Atlanta, Georgia, has focused its practice almost exclusively on mortgage modifications, foreclosure defense, and principal balance restructuring for the past two years, helping thousands of homeowners save their homes from foreclosure with affordable monthly payments.

However, if there’s one thing that being an attorney has taught Misty, it’s that she cannot save everyone. Often times, in a crisis situation, people look outside of themselves for something or someone that will save them. Attorney Oaks has realized however, that she can be much more effective by teaching others the processes that she uses in negotiating mortgage modifications so they can follow those same processes and save themselves. Coming from a long family line of educators Attorney Oaks partnered her Firm with two other local organizations to host a series of seminars for the general public and for other professionals to help them make sense out of this housing crisis. The seminars will be kicking off in late July, early August of this year in Atlanta, Georgia. The Oaks Firm will also be packaging and presenting several educational products to reach a national audience that so desperately needs the enlightenment.

But more than an attorney, Misty Oaks is a true renaissance woman who is forming her conglomerate piece by piece and brick by brick. She is a writer, a speaker, and a radio personality. For Misty, writing is truly her escape from the stresses of the legal profession. It is her catharsis, her therapy— her window to the world. She has written articles for award-winning websites such as CarolRoth.com and AOL’s online local news source Patch.com. She is a head editor at Supreme Design Publishing and is currently editing submissions for Street Law Anthology: Criminal Law. The book is the first volume of an encyclopedic series that will empower the masses by putting the law, and the knowledge of how to use it, in their hands. As a speaker, she has used her platform as a young African- American female entrepreneur to lead, coach, and inspire hundreds of women at area conferences, workshops, and seminars.

Attorney Oaks is the host of her very own morning radio talk show called The Misty Oaks Experience. The show is being shopped for national syndication, but the show can presently be heard on Sensation Station Network, which has quickly become the number one internet hip-hop and R&B station in Atlanta. The show's format is a mixture of everything that Attorney Oaks is—a Spirited Woman without a doubt. The Misty Oaks Experience airs every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. EST on www.sensationstationnetwork.com.

You can also read her innermost thoughts on her blog Mutterings of A Mastermind, at www.mutteringsofamastermind.wordpress.com. And don’t be a stranger!

Annette Comer Bestselling Author of Rescue ME! How To Save Yourself (and Your Sanity) When Things Go Wrong?

Turn on the TV, pick up a newspaper, or click on the Internet and the message is the same. Times are hard. People are losing their jobs at double-digit rates. Businesses that have lasted for years are closing their doors. Relationships are failing under the enormous stress.

It all sounds depressing and it is, but it’s nothing new. People face job loss everyday. Businesses fail at alarming rates, especially in the first five years, and forty percent plus divorce rates confirm relationships aren’t easy. No matter whether it’s today or five years ago, things go wrong and people find themselves silently screaming, “Someone rescue me!.”

Life’s challenges have piled up on my doorstep over the years, from major health challenges to being unfairly sued to a failed marriage to near financial ruin.  As I moved through each challenge, I began to develop methods that would turn my bad situation into a winning outcome.

Even though these methods of success sustained me, I never thought of sharing them. They were mine, my secret weapons to tackle my own “gone wrongs” and they allowed me to create a life of success that others couldn’t seem to obtain. 

This changed in 2006. I was in the middle of helping my brother resolve a major business crisis. His business, and my money, were both in trouble and desperately needed rescuing. He’d made mistakes and in spite of the abundance of business books, technical tools and training classes, the business was spiraling toward failure.

As I worked with him to resolve each crisis, I began to share my secret weapons, my methods, to deal with the “gone wrongs.” He was my brother; I couldn’t let him fail. At the same time I began to have a reoccurring dream that nagged at me to share my methods, not just with my brother, but also with others.

My bestselling book, RESCUE ME! , and my current life focus, were inspired by this persistent dream. The  book is a true story that offers vivid and memorable glimpses of humanvulnerability; a story so personal and revealing that most people would never choose to share it. The proven methods it offers for saving yourself from “gone wrongs” are useful for anyone.

Let me inspire you to challenge your assumptions about business and yourself, and help you develop the skills necessary for lasting success despite the challenges you might face.
 
All the best,

Annette Comer

Shirley Averett CEO & Founder of CruiseWomen.com - Master Cruise Consultant

In my 20’s, living in NYC, I was going on my first vacation, a cruise, with a girlfriend. She ditched me (she wasn’t a Spirited Woman!) to re-unite with an old flame. I wasn’t willing to go on the cruise alone. I went to New Orleans for Mardi Gras instead, met my future husband and didn’t do a cruise for 20 more years because he would not accompany me and because I was afraid of gaining weight via the all-you-can-eat cruise food.

Finally, a  group of women friends invited me to join them on a short cruise, it was an epiphany, I thought I’d had vacations before, but there was no comparison. I had a wonderful time (they were spirited women) and couldn’t wait to sail again. My previous vacations were: packing and unpacking in city after city, concern about where we’d eat that day/evening, how to get from here to there every stop on the trip, not knowing if the hotel, motel would have a good bed to sleep in, cleaning and cooking in a sublet condo;  all were totally different than my experience on a cruise.

A cruise gives service above and beyond even a stay at a five-star hotel, it feels so luxurious. You only  unpack once! There is a gym and a spa. Gourmet level food, served in controllable amounts. There are people from all over the globe, both on the crew and amongst the passengers. There is a camaraderie and small town feel to a ship. I especially enjoy the nature/spirit connection of a cruise. The ocean is so mystical, the wind, the waves, the clouds. A myriad of birds, flying fish, sea turtles, dolphins, sting rays and whales. There are infinite stars at which to gaze, aurora borealis, glaciers, rock formations and so much more.

A cruise can be convivial or solitary. It can be very active or laid back. It can be a spa cruise for relaxation / regeneration. Or a cruise with a different port every day; educational, enlightening, enriching. There are so many cruise lines, so many ships, the selection can be daunting, that is why my experience and expertise can help you discover the cruise that will suit you best. I can help guide you through the maze of ships and  accommodations, instruct you on how to manage the food and exercise onboard so you can come home healthier than before the cruise and still have a real vacation. You will get tips on how to make the trip easier and how to make air travel less stressful. How to get the most out of your first cruise, instead of wasting time learning the ropes.

And at Cruisewomen we encourage traveling in a way that supports women everywhere.

I would love to do a Spirited Woman cruise for a group of us to share our skills, talents and knowledge with each other. Having fun together is even more fun on a cruise. Tell me if you would like to participate in a Spirited Woman cruise.

Oh, and did I forget to mention dancing…. there is dancing on almost every cruise! I do love to dance.

Cruisewoman is here to assist women to cruise around the world or anywhere their hearts desire. Email me shirley@cruisewomen.com or call 800 550 1946.

Visit my website: www.cruisewomen.com for more information. (There is a nominal fee for the cruise consultation, if over an hour and it does not generate a cruise booking).

Karen Krulevitch - Marriage and Family Therapist

Photo by Ana Elisa Fuentes

I have been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since 1980, and have lived in Santa Barbara County for nearly forty years. My private practice deals with couples, same and opposite sex; individuals, men and women; all challenged with the issues of gaining healthy sexuality, assertiveness, boundary setting, and learning clear, loving communication.

Also for many years I have specialized in working with Adults Molested As Children, both women and men, as well as their significant others. These folks tend to have a special constellation of emotional issues, often requiring long term therapy. Growing up in a dysfunctional family system produces numerous hurdles for the wounded child becoming an adult. I have the patience and skill to deal with this population, which tend to be hard-working and devoted to their growth, once they commit to the therapeutic process.

In fact, I generally feel very inspired by my clients. These men and women are very dedicated to living more functional, joy-filled lives, and I am happy to be part of the journey in their personal evolution.

Here are some of my simple tips for finding a therapist who is right for you...

- Male or female therapist, or does it matter?

- About the same age as yourself, or is younger irrelevant?  Remember, older is not always wiser!

- Regarding finances, does the practitioner take your health insurance; does she offer a sliding fee scale; can you afford her rates?

Importantly, during your initial inquiry, do you sense that you resonate well with the therapist? Would you feel safe sharing your deepest secrets with this person?

Please view my website at www.karenleahk.com for testimonials and the link for my video interview.

Also, as a Spirited Woman community member, call me for a free 15-minute telephone consultation at 805-745-1543. If you are not in the Santa Barbara area or cannot travel for therapy, I would be happy to help network for you and find you the perfect therapist. You may also email me at leahking@silcom.com with inquiries. Ana Elisa Fuentes, who photographed Karen can be reached at: http://aefpix.blogspot.com.
