Things that bring me joy or that give me hope: The things I enjoy would be going to the park with my daughter, dancing with my husband, vacations, dancing in general, discovering new music that touched my soul. I have toyed with the idea of opening a dance club here in St. George once my business sells. I think it would be awesome to be involved in the 2 things I’m most passionate about…dancing and music. I go dancing with Gusevery time we go to a bigger city. We will also be starting ballroom dancing lessons next month! How fantastic is that? It’s really useful to be in touch with the things that refuel myself. I get burnt out if I'm not taking care of myself through these types of enjoyment activities.

My current goals: I’d like to have my master’s degree, sell my business, buy a better home, sell my current home, & start a career that’s in my field. However I have one scary word: Economy. All of these things give me some anxiety. The economy issue has really done a number on my well-being. I’m working on some stress reduction techniques that will hopefully be useful for things I cannot change, so hopefully I'll find some peace in all of this.
