This is something I don't ever do but I just have to, just this once... Say hello to Goddess Leonie Dawson!

Dear Ones,

Ten years ago I met the most sparkling, radiant soul I'd ever met. We became friends on SARK's community board and I watched her glow and grow. At 22 she self-published her first book, all hand done, and glorious, called Today I Grew Like A Wildflower. I immediately ordered it and cherished it and always keep it near me. If you need to be cheered up, you need Leonie. She has another book out this year which I've almost finished and love.

We did a barter and she took my on-line journal course in exchange for creating a logo for me:

I've been going slowly reading this new book because I am learning so much, you know, the kind of book you highlight, parenthesize, make notes in the margins, that kind of thing. She is helping me to move mountains of fears out of my life, fears that I never thought I could release, and she has given me the courage to follow my dreams, one very long held that you will be hearing about soon. And she hit one particular fear so head on it knocked the breath out of me, and it has changed my life! You can order this new and wondrous book of Leonie's at amazon and here's a link. I am not an amazon affiliate, I just want to share this glorious miraculous book!

where you can see inside a book and you

will really see what it looks like and how

magical it is!

Leonie has not just made wonderful art and written books, she has connected a (non-denominational) "Goddess Tribe" of women who are the most loving supportive women you will ever meet in a wide variety of groups offering more than you could imagine possible, and her e-courses have rocked people's world, most especially mine. The one that is helping me now because I have had plans and dreams and worked for decades giving much of what I made away for free (a woman's insecurities, all too often) or making very little money, I will be 58 in April and I have to be able to use my skill and talents and love and dreams to create an actual business. Leonie has created such a course and I'm here to tell you she is totally, well, almost shockingly honest about how she created every little asset of her business and how you can too. I mean she gives so much away I don't know another person in the world that has ever done anything like this. After years of not making money, by gosh and by golly, I'm working this course to make it happen. And I will. Leonie has told me, us, all in her knock your socks off class, her business course ...

Her work is so incredible that I am dedicating this year to re-taking the courses I've already taken and working with her newer materials and becoming more active in the Goddess Circle, the "Tribe" for the support I really need. I have needed this badly and as I am very shy and barely leave the house this gives me the opportunity to learn and do everything I need to do from the comfort of my own home. 

And...

Even more wondrous than that, Leonie offers something unbelievably gorgeous and incredible.  The value of all of her courses would be close to $1000. For $99 a year when you join the wonderful, supportive Goddess Circle. You can get ALL of her courses and materials for FREE and whatever else new she creates during the year. This is the most amazing thing I have ever had and it's worth well more than $1000 and I've taken a number of her courses and I'm here to tell you that they are so fabulous it's just an amazing deal!

I do not write these kind of posts and I do not promote other people's products, but Leonie's work has so changed my life and I am over the MOON about my new project, made possible by all I've learned from her so far, that I just could not NOT share.

Here's the amazing Goddess Circle. Just click on the link and find out more!

Finally, I am downloading the most spectacular thing to see me through this year. Lives have been changed in ENORMOUS ways but using the Guidebook for the year. Women have made a list of things they wanted to accomplish and looked back at the end of the year and accomplished every one! And it's not just one or two woman, a great many women are saying this! So I am taking my downloaded book to the printer to make my copy and have it bound with the plastic ring binding. I want to carry it with me wherever I go. You get a glorious calendar too.

Finally, if you think I can't be so over the top excited about this, enough to break all of my rules I have had for a decade and more of several different blogs and never taken advertising or promoted anyone -- and I've taken this very seriously -- you must know how dear and important this is to me, and I'm so excited I want the world to know about Leonie's work because she is like no one you will ever meet in your life. I will end with her amazing story...

"Goddess Leonie Dawson is the creator of GoddessGuideBook.com, one of the longest running creativity, spirituality & business blogs on the web.

Leonie is a writer, blogger, retreat leader, globe-trotter, visual artist, mama, and vessel of wild creativity & sage guidance for the 20,000 Goddesses who orbit around her virtual altar each month. Her strategic musings & practical wisdom have been featured on Problogger, Tiny Buddha, spirituality magazines like Goddess, Spellcraft, Life Images and Spheres, and in three of SARK’s best-selling books on creative fulfillment & freedom.

Purposeful, passionate & unendingly prolific, Goddess Leonie published her first book at 22, held her first art show at 23, began leading women’s circles at 23, created her first retreat at 25, launched the Goddess Circle — a subscription-based women’s community for creatives of every color — at 27, and has guided 4,000 women through transformational Circle experiences over the past 3 years. She’s also released 5 e-courses — including her signature workshop for entrepreneurs, Become A Business Goddess — 4 meditation kits and 2 workbooks into the digital ether, building a multiple six-figure business in the process.

Leonie has walked labyrinths in the moonlight, wept atop mountains in the middle of a storm, danced with a baby in an old cow shed as a Filipino tribal chief sang, and once married herself in a public commitment ceremony — witnessed by goddess maidens of honor that she’d met on the Internet.

No stranger to praise, applause & offerings of gratitude, Goddess Leonie has been called an “illuminated creator,” “inspiring, wise and oh-so-talented,” a “healer, guide and sacred teacher” — and she’s here to help you bring your soul-stirring dream into reality, and become the Goddess you were born to be."

There's nothing more I can add to that, except click the links above, or below at the bottom of this blog to read about more of her works (I couldn't even fit them all!) and join with me on a life-changing year. It's going to be the most important thing I've ever done for myself in my life...

Blessings, Love & Joy to one and all...
