June 26, 2014, Vol. 12, Issue 11 One of the things that I love about this work is how my clients keep me on my toes — especially clients that come back year after year. Whenever a client asks for something new and different that helps me broaden my horizons and seek new talent. For… read more
June 10, 2014, Vol. 12, Issue 10 Have you ever read something, and said to yourself, “Wow, I wish I had written that.”? That’s exactly what I thought when I read the post I’m sharing with you today, by our speaker, Michelle May, MD, CSP. She lays it on the line about media and fitness… read more
May 23, 2014, Vol. 12, Issue 10 This is so exciting! A favorite book(s) is being (could be) made into a movie. A few years ago a client turned me on to Joan Anderson’s first book, Year by The Sea, and I devoured it — and all the sequels, too. Although my circumstances were different… read more

That’s exactly how I felt a couple of weeks ago when Rebecca Katz presented her “Power of Yum” cooking demo program for Legacy Health’s “Meals that Heal” series here in Portland. I consider Rebecca a master because she exhibited a blend… read more

Feb. 27, 2014, Vol. 12, Issue 4 You may have seen it in the headlines — a large and rigorous study is casting doubt on the value of mammograms in reducing deaths from breast cancer. This, like many other health scare reports in the media, can cause quite a stir among the public — that… read more
Feb. 13, 2014, Vol. 12, Issue 3 February — it’s the month for matters of the heart — both the beating physical entity and the emotional heart. As I looked back in my archives, I noticed that over the years I’ve written lots about heart health and heart health speakers, but little about the emotional… read more
