Hello everyone!

 Thank you so much for having me at the Women’s Wellness Conference in Gravenhurst!  I had the best time and you were a fantastic audience!  I wish I could have had more time, and I am sorry that I ended up rushing at the end, and not getting to all of the material.

For that reason, I have asked Sue to add the PPT presentation to her website, along with some links to documentaries, videos, and articles that I mentioned.

I hope you learned a little bit about genetics and maybe I will see you in the future sometime at another workshop about epigenetics and medicine!  J

All the best, and thanks for the warm welcome!

Hello Dear Friends:

Thinking back to the October Conference brings wondrous joy to me as I recall the excitement and camaraderie of over 200 vibrant women assembled to be informed, inspired and ignited to do whatever is next for them. Thank you so much for your unconditional support. Your assurance and participation helped to make it so successful.

I am feeling a bit remiss in not writing to you earlier – I was in catch-up mode but now I am ready to refocus and reprioritize my life. The conference helped me to take an inward look at myself, allowing me to make some hard decisions so that I can accomplish my life goals. Completing my manuscript is one of those goals.

I have some exciting information that I’ll be sharing soon, but for now I thought you might enjoy reading the wrap-up poem created by Carole Bertuzzi-Luciani – here it is:
