A Call To Conscious Evolution - Our Moment of Choice

Evolutionary Leaders - In Service
UCLA - August 31, 2010
Thirty years ago, long before The Secret came onto the scene, I found myself in a challenging health situation where I had been to 12 specialists while enduring constant pain. Unfortunately, none of them could figure out what was wrong with me. Then one day while sitting on the front lawn in a hopeless state, a Spirit driven miracle took place: my neighbor pulled up with a big smile on her face and a bag full of new age books from the Bodhi Tree bookstore. In that bag were two books that would change my life forever – Louise Hay’s You Can Heal Your Life and Sondra Ray’s Loving Relationships.

Roar and Snore - A Safari Adventure

It was 11:00am Saturday August 8, 2009 when my daughter (24), myself and our respective partners arrived at the San Diego Zoo's Wild Animal Park for an unforgettable 24-hour family adventure. As a conscious and compassionate animal person, I have to admit I had major reservations about visiting the animal park when my (vegetarian) boyfriend originally showed me the article he read about the parks Roar and Snore overnight camping program. Once he shared his feelings about their program being an integral part of saving many of the creatures on the worlds "Endangered Species" list, that's when I started doing research into this unique 1,800-acre Wild Animal Park, which also includes a 900-acre native plant reserve.

If you haven’t yet ventured out to The Grammy Museum at LA Live, you must treat yourself. The 18-month-old museum offers the community a substantial gift through classes, events (for all ages), artifacts, culture and history. The current exhibit – Strange Kozmic Experience, gives the visitor a rare glimpse into the lives of Janis Joplin, The Doors/Jim Morrison, and Jimi Hendrex, among others. On display are photos, cars, personal hand-written letters, journals, lyrics, and there is much more to this 30,000 sq foot museum.

The Museum’s mission is to use music as a gateway to learning; inspiring and cultivating creativity, critical-thinking and self-expression. The experiential tools that support their vision include after school programs, teacher curriculum, teacher workshops, museum tours, seminars, symposia, master music classes taught by Academy members, mentoring programs, music

WCWP Helps Sponsor WE Build Habitat For Humanity

Last year I had the great fortune of helping the San Fernando Valley Green Building Task Force (A subcommittee of the SFV Green Team) on a volunteer build for Habitat for Humanity in Pacoima, CA. It was truly a memorable experience of working together as a group for an important cause … creating homes for those in need and building community. One of the added benefits of the day was I learned how to build a fence with a few other women and really enjoyed the sense of accomplishment of the finished product.

Then in January I met Donna Deutchman the Executive Director/CEO for local Habitat For Humanity projects on a conference call. When Donna told me about one of the projects she was working on – a Women’s Empowerment Build, I knew right away it was something that WCWP would like to help sponsor. It was a project dedicated to empowering women - a three-day build that would take place on May 23, 24 and 25, 2010.
