What's It All About, Anyway?

I'd love for you to take some action in your own lives to create the life you truly want. Too often, it's easy to remain stuck where we are--either through laziness or being too comfortable or wanting to please others. I hope that my work encourages women to build up the confidence to first identify what it is they really want and then go after it.

Yes, I intend to change the world. I have long been frustrated at our (women, in general) inability to influence the issues that are important to us: child care, equal pay, health services, housing issues, international policy in the areas of civil rights and war. And I started thinking I could band women together to have a powerful voice. What I discovered was that, until each of us feels powerful in her own right, we won't feel powerful as a group.

So I'm out to empower women to change their world. I leave it up to each woman to define what "change" means. For some, it means finding an hour each week to write poetry. For others, it means transitioning their career from something they took up because others thought it would be good for them, into something that makes their heart sing.

I rattle cages by encouraging people, particularly women, to think differently. 

What I ask readers to do is the following:

1. Assess where you are, and whether it's really and truly where you want to be.
2. If it's not where you want to be, clearly define where you do want to be.
3. Take the first small step to get there.

I hope that I can provide some support, from the specific tools and tips I might offer along the way, to the general support of knowing there's someone else who's rooting for you.
