"The world we live in is changing fast. We are going to see more women coming into leadership, as feminine attributes continue to gain more value in all aspects of our culture. The Seven Women Project, written during the most challenging of economic and environmental times, could not have come soon enough. This practical tool kit is THE essential guide for every woman who wants to successfully meet the call to step up, while offering her most balanced, authentic, and empowered self in service of a better world."

"The Seven Women Project is full of personality and fun. While reading the book I was hoping Karen and Meredith would come over and coach the team of women within me, but by the end, I had taken some notes and created a plan that I hope to execute on my own. The Seven Women Project is a great resource and even a guide for balance in our lives. This book acknowledges that women are called to wear many hats, the trick is knowing when to switch over...and then wearing the right hat with style!"

"I have always been such a “Kate”! But learned from The Seven Women Project that I am also “Hanna” and “Donna”, and now is the time to let my “Sophie” out. Since learning about The Seven Women, I have been able to use this within my own interior design business by identifying who each of my clients are and expressing that style through their homes."

"Reading The Seven Woman Project inspired me to reclaim and celebrate parts of myself that I had forgotten or misunderstood. It deepened my appreciation for the variety of all the special women in my life and the way we continuously change and re-invent ourselves"

"After reading The Seven Women Project I reorganized my closet into Seven Sections. (ok, six because Hanna got a drawer) – My husband was nice enough to agree to use the closet in the guest room. I loved the book!"

"All of the women in The Seven Women Project are fabulous, but my favorite woman is Donna! Donna loves the spotlight. She is the master of self-promotion and she speaks to me, loud and clear. Donna is shameless!"

Debbie Allen
Professional Speaker, author: Confessions of Shameless Self-Promoters

"When I first started reading The Seven Women Project, I got scared. I was Kate! I never thought I was a Kate but there I was checking off all of the boxes for her. Then I realized I was actually more responsible and pulled together than I thought of myself. I had only been thinking of the negative impressions one might have of Kate. I went on to Zoe and realized there was some of myself there as well; then onto Hannah and even Gwen and found there were parts of me in these women as well. And also parts of these women that would be fun to access more in my life. Finally, reading Sophia, I understood how one could be every one of these women but the most important thing was to know yourself, love yourself and live it up."

"The Seven Women Project is a brilliant, creative piece of work that captures and honors the depth and richness in each of us. This book is fun, entertaining and yes even enlightening. It allowed me to celebrate my personal journey and highlighted the 'shadow side'. Hats off to Karen and Meredith!!"

Bambi McCullough

"The Seven Women Project is a fun, insightful look at the constant tug-of-war of fashion and fancy inside us all. I teeter-totter between being a Hanna/Zoe and a Gwen. When Gwen gets her way and I put on the heels and the fantastic dress, we have a blast. Then she very quickly sends me back to Hanna (hungover) and Zoe (to yoga to clean my system back out.) It's a viscous cycle and it actually works pretty well!"

"Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present." Jim Rohn

 

 

This is the cover of Dr. Earl R. Henslin's book Your Brain On Joy - We love this flower-brain

How many times have you thought or even said out loud, "I'll be happy when_____________." When I was a little girl I might answer that I would be happy when school was out and it was summer.  When I was in college I remember saying that I would be happy when the quarter was over.  When I was first married I remember thinking that I would be happy after we had a child.  Just recently I said that I would be happy once the bathroom was remodled. Through the years I have come to the realization that happiness comes to us throughout the day. We just have to be tuned into what really makes us happy. Start getting into the happiness mode by making  a list of the little things that make you happy. Then, plan  to put them into each day!

 

 

 

Don't put the thought of being happy off into the future. Don’t wait to be happy. There’s no time like the present to notice the good. Every day could be just average or even boring unless we take notice of what good is happening to us. Start noticing what makes you smile. Did you know that smiling evokes a positive emotion in us.  These positive emotions are what create our happiness.  When you are feeling joyful stop and let yourself feel what you feel. Whether your moment comes after having a hard but positive conversation with a friend, an unexpected kiss from your husband, seeing your baby take her first step, getting some well-deserved recognition from your boss or even taking a walk with your aging dad…Most of the time these are not planned events. They are simple things that happen every day or just once in awhile that makes you feel good about yourself and your life. And it is in those moments life is as good as it gets.

Women and Happiness

I am Sophia the seventh woman in The Seven Women Project. The authors, Karen and Meredith say that I have made it! That I have found my passion, live authentically, and that I pulsate sincere joy. WOW! That is pretty amazing and it happens to be  true!  I am happy as I have worked tirelessly through some pretty big challenges and rough spots in my life. You can read all about me and my journey in the book whilch will be out April 1 , 2010. 

Today I want to start a discussion on Women and Happiness...

By now, you may have head that women today are not very happy.  The Wharton School recently released a study on Women and  Happiness and it made me a little sad. The research concluded that women are not as happy as they were 40 years ago, while men are getting a little happier. Betsey Stevenson and Justin Wolfer’s research, The Paradox of Declining Female Happiness discovered that even though the lives of women have considerably improved over the last 35 years their happiness has declined.
