I have 4 exciting new opportunities for you!

First, if you are single, over 40 and interested in making a contribution to your local community, check out Matches that Matter. 

Matches That Matter is a new social introduction service targeting singles over 40, with a model unique to the industry. After a professional interview and background check, like-minded Members are matched to work together in small groups on local, community-based projects. Groups of 6 men and 6 women work together for 3 activities at local non-profits, lasting 2-3 hours each. Activities are driven by members and range from building playgrounds, homes, and gardens to working with museums, planting trees, creek restoration etc. This format allows singles to get to know each other in a natural low-pressure environment while giving back to their community. 

Matches that Matter also offers educational programs and I will be providing a variety of classes and courses for their members.  I was able to negotiate a 50% off introductory offer for my clients and newsletter readers. If you are interested please go to their website www.MatchesThatMatter.com  - Click on the Start Today option and enter the coupon code MTLP01 before July 31.

LIFE SCHOOL! 

Are you interested in life long learning and spiritual awakening?  I have been invited to be one of the teachers at a new school called Life School.   

Life School is an innovative teleseminar program that starts with a year long learning experience that features 52 astounding teachers... and blossoms into terrific meetups, workshops, and social events. This unique self-discovery program is based on growth challenges that combine lifelong learning with spiritual truth-or-dare, as students are encouraged, week by week, to expand their beliefs about what's possible and embrace true change. Plus it's more than just a phone call... each call leads into workshops, intensives, meetups and fun social events. Plus, the collective notes of this group adventure will be published as a book called Life School: 52 Challenges to Change Your Life.

 Here's your chance to dive into deep conversations with Jack Canfield about success, Barbara Marx Hubbard on conscious evolution, Master Mantak Chia on qigong, Dr. Bernie Siegel on love & healing, Dr. Stan Grof on mastering breath, Peter Russell on letting go, Peggy Dylan on transcending fear, Swami Beyonanda on the power of laughter, and many others... including myself!

I'll be talking about How to let love in and create joyful, loving relationships, and that program will air on September 20, 2012. 
More details to come in July!

My book, Roadmap to Success with Deepak Chopra and Ken Blanchard is available at Book Passage in Corte Madera www.BookPassage.com and on my website.  To order your signed copy and to get free books, see www.MyTrueLovePath.com.     Here's an excerpt from my chapter Roadmap to Relationship Success.   "Dr. Wendy,  What steps can we take to create lives and relationships that are truly successful?"   (Previously I shared the first five steps on my Roadmap to Relationship Success.   The first and perhaps most important step you can take is to love yourself. Step 2 is to know what you want and believe you can have it. Step #3 on my roadmap to relationship success has two-parts. (1): Let go of the past, and (2): Choose joy over fear.  Step #4 is to make relationships a priority.  Step #5 is to tell the truth. Step #6 is: Have compassion for others.   Please contact me if you'd like more information on these critical steps.)   Step #7. Get the support you need to create relationships that work. Your support team can include friends, family, colleagues, a coach, therapist, or group. There is plenty of supportive information available to you in books, teleclasses and on-line too. You don't have to navigate this terrain alone.   I know most people think relationships should be spontaneous and happen without any planning, preparation or support. Most singles I talk to look blank when I ask them if they have a relationship plan. Recently, a single businesswoman in her 50s asked me, "Why would I need a plan? That seems so calculated, so unromantic. Besides I'll know it's right when I see it." What if she took this approach to her business? "Who needs a plan? I'll know it's right when I see it." How successful would her business be? Probably not very!   An effective relationship plan is comprehensive and includes clarity on your values, vision, and relationship requirements as well as an understanding of your challenges and areas for growth. It includes clear goals for your life and relationships, and steps you will take to date consciously and be deliberate and discerning in your relationship choices. With support, you can create a plan that works well for you, and has a positive impact on all your relationships.   I know that for most of us, when we don't get support, we often don't get anywhere with our goals and plans. If you are serious about creating a great relationship, get support that will truly help you create an amazing love-filled life. With support, all your relationships can be successful.
