This post was written before a showman lost his job over saying a certain woman of great renown looked like an ape actor...well, aren't we all related to primates on a certain level, and why not have such limits spelled out in one's contract?

Review the info on the BMCC, www.batteredmotherscustodyconference.org and consider attending this even in mid May of 2015

March is International Women's Day, www.berkshirewomenwriters.com Enjoy some inspiration and share with a friend (of any gender/s)

Get inspired by the events held in your area and online to recognize the importance of women being cared for and supported. Yes, men too and of course, Kids. Somehow we overlook major segments of our populations. Groups like UNIFEM and One Billion Rising, International Woman's Day and www.berkshirewomenwriters.com are helping that shift. Checking out sites for ten minutes a week in addition to your e-mail or FB can help one move toward empowerment. See www.duluthmodel.org too for safety tips in one's home and community on attractive wheel posters.

Another special free online conference (which one can pay to access later too) on Aging and planning for one's passage or 'death' more consciously.

A tall order, but a common shared path. See the site to find more resources on www.transformingagingsummit.com, www.consciouselders.com, www.passionandpurpose.com, and books such as Live Smart after 50 by Meg Newhouse. Her name certainly fits her work. How about yours? If not in a positive way, maybe change or use an extra name!
