Gentle Health Goal Setting for Fibromites
Monday, Jan 16th, 6-7:30 PM
If you're tired of setting New Year's resolutions that you never seem to keep, don't worry - you're not alone!
Learn a gentle way to set and reach your health goals this year!
Gentle Health Goal Setting for Fibromites, is our January webinar with Fibromaylgia Coach, Tami Stackelhouse. In it you will learn how to set goals that you'll feel like you can actually accomplish - while feeling good about yourself in the process.
During the webinar, Tami will walk you through the process of choosing an appropriate goal, creating a vision of what that goal looks like, taking stock of where you are right now, then writing down the baby steps.
After this webinar, you will have a plan of action that will help to pull you towards your goal - and the knowledge you can use this process on any goal you want to reach.
BONUS for webinar attendees! Tami is including one free coaching session for everyone who registers for this event to help you complete your goal setting!
If you can't make the webinar, be sure to join our private web group so that you will have access to the recording after the event! (You can still get the free coaching session by registering, even if you can't attend on the day of the webinar.)

How to Help Your Medical Expenses Pay You Back
 Saturday, January 21st, 1-4 PM Remember, our meetings are now held at The Frida Center in "The Studio"! Get directions and a map here. Do you wish there was a way to get some of the money you spend on medical expenses back? There just might be!
At our January meeting, Samantha Pahlow, CPA, will walk through the IRS list of deductible medical expenses and teach us what we can take advantage of and how to document those expenses. You will be surprised at some of the things you may be missing out on!
You'll want to collect the proper documentation from the beginning of the year so that you'll be able to take full advantage of your expenses and mileage. Without the proper documentation, you can't make the deductions.
Samantha is not your typical boring CPA. She's smart, funny, compassionate, and does an awesome job of simplifying and explaining complex bits of information. (Still, we recommend bringing a support person to help your brain retain all the goodies Samantha will be sharing!)
After this meeting, you'll have the peace of mind that you can help your medical expenses pay you back for a change!
