smart, kind, helpful people: my resource hot list
I feel compelled to say that my referrals are given with extreme love, care and first hand experience.
- coaching + project guidance: Dyana Valentine is a brilliant force of nature who has kicked my creative butt into shape. She's gifted.
- life coaching: Lianne Raymond is a clear-thinking, strong-hearted, Martha Beck-certified coach. Only works with women.
- astrology: Nancy 'Scooter' McMoneagle, is part scientist, part seer. First class sage. Blows me away every time.
- astrology: Heidi Rose Robbins, is a divinely strong coach-meets-astrologer.
- spiritual adviser: Navjit Kandola's work defies simple description but if you want to refine your consciousness and bust up some old psyche patterning, Navjit's sessions are powerful stuff.
- voice coach: Awilda Verdejo will help you get your true, strong speaking (or singing) voice flowing. She works over the phone and is the real Diva (as in, sang with Pavarotti.)
