Blissful Escapes

~Blissful Escapes ~
 For Moms of Children with Cancer


Inspired by my son Austin who was diagnosed with Retinoblastoma I created “Blissful Escapes”, for Moms of children with Cancer. The Escapes are designed for moms to get away for a weekend and focus on themselves. The journey of having a child with cancer has many unknowns of physical and mental challenges. It can weaken the strongest caregiver. The weekend will bring hands on tools for moms to take back home to continue to nurture themselves while they nurture their children. They will receive art therapy, massage, yoga, laughter, life coaching and much more. They will walk away with a “bhappybag” designed for them to keep “bhappytools” when their mental and physical strength are running low.

These escapes are designed to not only help them during this journey of cancer with their children, but with any other difficult challenge they may come across.

Our first Blissful Escape is January 21, 22, 23 – 2011. Ten moms will be gifted a weekend away, all donated by other women and kind contributions in the Portland area. Just a few short weeks ago another inspiring and giving non profit joined our contributors, Lens of Hope. They have written a wonderful blog about the Caring Cabin that our moms will stay at. I could not have written it any better so chose to just link you to their blog. Thank you!



With Love and Gratitude ~

Empower Yourself with Life Coaching



Envision ~ Explore ~ Embrace ~ Empower
...YOURSELF


As your coach, I will walk hand in hand with you along your journey in discovering your empowering grace. You will embrace yourself as you become empowered to be the woman you envision.

As we begin to explore, remember: You are designed for a purpose.

I will help you find what you are most passionate about, what drives you on a day to day basis. I will help you recognize and embrace the core of who you are. We are all worthy of having beautiful, precious relationships, not ones that consistently fail.

I will help you explore your relationships to bring them to a greater potential, with your friends, employer or spouse. . . so that you will be known as fabulous and wonderful.

Would you like to have a relationship with someone that accepts you for you, loves you unconditionally, is always there for you, will cry with you, laugh with you and not judge you? Meet Jesus. I will teach you to find these things in your relationship with Him. Is your mind clear and focused or are you holding back because of fear, doubt, insecurities or feeling overwhelmed? Do you feel like you try and try but can’t seem to reach your goals? If so, let me walk with you and we will find your greatest potential together.
