Altogether Fabulous

We are all on a journey and there is no “one-size-fits-all” method to learning what we are here to learn.  We all have to learn our individual lessons in our own way and in our own time.

What there is out there is a large number of books, CDs, DVDs, seminars, workshops, webinars and all manner of things that can help you on your journey. You will resonate more with some teachers than you will with others. I have always loved reading books by Dr Wayne Dyer but have never been able to connect with the work of Deepak Chopra.

It is my belief that we connect with the people who can show us a way on our own path. I hope by being here to help you along your path. Not so that you do it my way but because reading about my way will help you discover your own answers.

That is the altogether fabulous way.

Altogether Fabulous has been written to reach out to women over 40 in the first instances (I really want to reach out to teens so they learn this early in life!). We are at the prime of life. A time when we are at our most sensual, our most connected and for those of us with children as they grow, a time when freedom to do what we want to do begins to return.

Not everyone is in that altogether fabulous place and through my books (and ebooks), membership site, products and most importantly through this blog I hope to help you on your journey to recognize your altogether fabulous self.

Some people will read one post and never return, overs will become subscribers and read what I write, many will go on to buy a book maybe two, join the membership site or invest in a product or two. Whatever your reason for finding me I welcome you. Whether it is just to read the blog or end up in one of my exclusive workshops in Europe or the Caribbean I welcome you.

What is an altogether fabulous woman?

Let me paint a picture for you:

We love life. Not because everything is perfect but because even in the imperfect and challenging moments we recognize the opportunities to learn about who we are.

We love who we are. Our bodies are getting older, changes are taking place, our skin isn’t the same as it was but none of that matters. Altogether fabulous women live in a space of being happy with who they are because they understand that they are made in the perfect image of the divine. Do you love yourself?Altogether Fabulous Women Love Who They Are

We love our SELF. When you are in love with yourself it is magnetic and attractive. Not only to other people but to the universe. You block the true experiences of life when you are not in love with your true self. Altogether fabulous women are in love with SELF. They nurture their relationship with their higher self (soul/God/universe) and take guidance from it. When you have a deep love for yourself inside it radiates a powerful presence/aura on the outside.

We change our life. Change is constant. It takes more effort to resist change and live in denial than it does to embark on changing our life for the better. Altogether fabulous women work through their limits so that they are free to change their life. Ready to change your life?

We give ourself permission to be less than fabulous. There will be days when we become upset, annoyed, worried, fearful and more but they become few and far between. We will acknowledge them, journal about them to gain an insight into why they are there and work towards releasing them. Being altogether fabulous isn’t about being perfect or enlightened. It is a real journey based on the human experience called life and everything that goes with it. I believe its way too much pressure to remain 100% positive and upbeat all the time. In fact it can cause us to live in denial glossing over what is happening with “think happy thoughts and everything will be okay”

A positive mindset. Having said that I want you to understand that a positive mindset is essential on this journey. The more you foster it the stronger it becomes. What is unacceptable is living from a place of believing simply thinking positively will get rid of all those unhappy events you don’t want. Only learning about yourself and the lesson those events are here to teach you will do that.

We remain open to learn. Altogether fabulous women remain open to learn about themselves, why they do the things they do and what influences their thoughts, feelings and behaviour.  All challenges are seen as opportunities to grow, maybe not immediately as a problem occurs it may be embraced as “yet another problem” but once the All Together Fabulous journal comes out that evening and writing begins the problem soon becomes another growth opportunity. Eventually life just becomes one big opportunity to grow.

We are driven by a purpose and desire to achieve things in life. If you are not growing you are dying. Altogether fabulous women set desires and dreams. They recognise that it is not about acheiving your desires but more about the journey and who they become in the process of working towards them. Once achieved altogether fabulous women take time to stop and enjoy their achievements, taking time to acknowledge how far they have come. This strong sense of purpose uplifts them and makes life worth living. Are you ready to be purpose driven?

We recognize the need for patience. Altogether fabulous women understand that everything happens in the time and space that it was meant to happen. While setting timescales and outcomes are important even more important is allow things to come to us rather than chasing them in the hope that they will happen.

Altogether Fabulous Women make time for themselves. No excuses. Making time to journal in the evening, taking time out to go for works or spend alone time. As we hit our forties other responsibilities can take up our time. Our children are growing but our parents are aging and looking after them brings more responsibility. However, it is still important that in all of that we make time to nurture our own being.

Being an altogether fabulous woman has nothing to do with the clothes you wear and everything to do with the spirit inside. The you who may have remained hidden, may be totall repressed and unexpressed is about to find her altogether fabulous self. You are already there but in the haze of being unhappy you have lost her. Our journey together will help her live once more.

Beautiful Middle Aged Woman

Why can’t you see where your beauty lies?

Not in your body but within your eyes

Lost in confusion of how things were

Desperate for times of youth, of hope

Eternally wanting what you can’t have

Stop and ahead of you, there’s more to see

The beauty of knowing how far you’ve come

Why waste your life on what once was

And miss out on what could be

Beautiful middle aged woman

You are a joy to see

But only when you choose to be

Much more than your body

Much more than your hair

Eventually you will realize that people don’t care

They love you for what you bring to their life

As a mother, a sister, a daughter a wife

Embrace your new body and rest your tortured soul

Beautiful middle aged woman, your time is now
