Last month I had the great pleasure of speaking to the Queen City Lions Club in Clarksville, TN. I also had the chance to speak to the kids (and parents and other adults) at the Stokes Brown Public Library in Springfield, TN about Helen Keller. What a great time we had. Kids are amazing and they take nothing for granted and have great questions and sometimes make amazing statements! Special thanks to Lion Ed Lantz for inviting me down. We had a great time! I was also told the Clarksville Lions Club signed up 2 or 3 new members after my visit. That made it all worthwhile. Way to go Clarksville Lions Club!
I do love talking about women in history and the leadership they've shown through the ages. Throughout the research and reading I’ve done I always find women, when given the chance, will far exceed men in their endeavors. It always makes me wonder why more women aren’t given the same opportunities as men. When women do get those opportunities we always thrive. I myself am one of those types – tell me I can’t do something – and watch me go do it just to prove I can! I’m such a rebel.
I'm very excited that in a few years, after over 100 years in service to the world, Lions Clubs International will have a woman President, Lion Gudrun Yngvadottir, from Iceland. And of course, for the 1st time in history, a woman is running for President in the United States. Women continue to hit the trail and try to pave the way for those behind them.
On occasion I do like to talk about amazing women I know or have met, and today I'd like to talk about a friend of mine from Michigan. She’s an amazing lady who several years ago went through a transformation to find out who she really was…and boy did she ever! She quit “working” and started her own life coaching business. She does personal coaching, workshops, and yoga instruction just to name a few. She also likes to journal. I encourage you to learn about my friend, Terri Spaulding, through her recently published blog: http://www.getoffgo.com/blog/. And while you are there, you won’t want to miss checking out her website about all she has to offer and getting to know this amazing lady. If I lived in Michigan and had the opportunity to see her more often I’d be utilizing her services. For all of you in Michigan, I hope you check her out and set up an appointment with her. She will leave you feeling excited about new possibilities. Thank you, my friend, for always amazing me!
