Reflections

Do we truly live life, or do we go through the motions of living life? For me personally it depends on where I am, or what I’m going through at the time. I’ve done both. Life offers us different opportunities to grow, learn, experience and feel. Some I’ve enjoyed, some …

Game Night

How’s your summer going? For me, too fast! This week Eva Mare Workshops hosted Coffee Connect: the last Tuesday of the month came at record speed. We had a game night, which was really fun.  Our family enjoys playing games, and we used to have game night every Friday night …

Decluttering

The first half of July has been a busy time for our family: 4th of July celebrations followed by our grandon’s twelfth birthday and his first solo flight to North Carolina to visit our oldest daughter. This weekend, we’re in Rhode Island for a family wedding.  In the midst of …

Hidden Treasures

We’ve had beautiful spring weather this week here in the northeast. It was revitalizing to move my office outside to work. The blue sky, bright sun, billowing clouds and singing birds energized me. Last weekend, Eva Marie Workshops hosted our first-ever two-day workshop event. It was well-attended and a success! …

Community

I hope those who celebrated had a lovely Mother’s Day! Mine was very relaxing. In our post-lockdown world, the word “community” has taken center stage: all of us want and need it. The Oxford dictionary defines it as “a feeling of fellowship with others, and a result of sharing common …

Choices

This week I’ve been making decisions on the direction of my business. So many avenues to choose from, which one is right for me? There are many choices for us to choose from each day, and all day we’re making decisions, big and small, consciously and unconsciously. Some choices are …
