ON CONVIVIAL SABBATICAL
For the month of January and to kick off the new year, I’m going into full immersion mode and taking a sabbatical.
As I’ve written throughout 2010 and pondered the idea of a Convivial Society, I have decided that to create and experience such a place, you have to start with the very element that sets its foundation, that gives root to the possibility of its creation and existence, and that is the woman…a convivial woman. For this reason…
I’ve decided to rebrand by changing the name of the site from Convivial Society to…
The Convivial Woman
.
I couldn’t be more certain of this change and know it will only take me closer to the understanding I need on how I can best serve others and share my gifts with the world.
For the next few weeks, I will be focused on evaluating and redefining my purpose for the site by immersing myself in the following:
:: Research and reading, namely literature and articles focused on women and their power and influence in the world. I’ve got an itch to read about Princesses and Queens.
:: Old school journaling with favorite pen and paper to clear mental clutter and noise, writing letters and mailing them off versus emails.
:: Dining at my favorite restaurants, eating lots of dessert, and drinking micheladas, bubble tea, yerba mate, and good old water whenever the cravings overtake my senses
:: Lots of self-care in the form of yoga, push ups, massages, laughter, kombucha, date nights, mani-pedis, girlfriend time, child’s play with my sons, and proper sleep…lots of it.
:: Writing writing and more writing to hone my message further.
:: And….whatever else crosses my path! Consider me a sponge because I’m gonna soak it all up.
So there you have it. Change is in the air.
In the new year, I plan to launch a coaching business and start offering one on one private coaching sessions, organize public workshops a la Regal Chic Brunch style, and write a Convivial Lifestyle Guide just for you. It’s all dreamy, passionate and very personal play for me and you and only a matter of time until it becomes reality.
So get ready for a great year, one that will be focused on you, on me, on The Convivial Woman. Be sure to sign up for my newsletter HERE and be first in line to see what’s ahead!
I look forward to having you join me here again on February 1, 2011 for my return to writing and for the redefining moment of the site’s name change and relaunch later in the month!
Convivially Yours,
P.S. I won’t be writing any blog posts or responding to comments via my site, Facebook or Twitter for all of January. I may post updates related to my sabbatical, but they will be extremely minimal.
