A couple of years ago, I attended a workshop. I had been reading blogs, clicking along, and saw that The Savvy Photographer blog was hosting a workshop for photographers. The Savvy Sisterhood Workshop on the Waterfront, founded by Marsha Mifsud, was designed to be an intimate and collaborative retreat especially for creative photographers and entrepreneurs….
The introduction to Step 9 needs to start with a story from my life, but it is a story that is hard to talk about, so I’ll spare you the details. A year ago, I was caffeine-addicted, not exercising, and frankly, probably not spending enough time with my kids. Life was a whirlwind. To be…

This morning, I was talking to a friend about all the plans we have in the works for the Stationery Academy Class of 2012. I was telling her that Natalie and I have been talking, planning, and prepping almost daily since we both got back from the National Stationery Show. We are SO EXCITED. My…
