Here’s something you DO know about me:
I LOVE to help action-taking Christian women entrepreneurs as they SCALE their online business so that they can live the BRAVE life they crave. Let’s dive in and have more FUN!
But – here are 7 things you might NOT know about me ~
I’m ALL about visibility, especially this month (~ ~ hint, hint – we just finished up my 5-Day (FREE) Brave Visibility Challenge so I thought this would be lots of fun!
Here we go!
- I have self-published 10 books since 2010 (that’s almost 1 per year, friends!). Five of them are collaboration books so I could bring hundreds of women along with me!! I’m a gatherer of people!
- 4 full marathons have been completed by this body – woo hoo!….. I’ve raised money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (and I ran many, many half marathons before my herniated disc told me to stop). While I don’t train at the marathon or even half marathon level any longer (hellloo!!), I still exercise every day.
- I have weighed 50 lbs more than I weigh now .. and I’ve also been 20 lbs less… and I have never been pregnant. HAHA!! I spent 30 days in a hospital eating disorder unit. I decided on that for my 18th birthday because I wanted to get better!! How’s that for stepping into adulthood?!
- I then became a Master’s Level Therapist and worked for 5 years in an E.A.P. at a hospital. I also had my own private practice. I ultimately lost that career related to a malpractice lawsuit due to the suicide of a client. So, I started over and re-created myself in the coaching world ~ and HERE I AM!
- I have 3,177 days of sobriety are under my belt… my friends, that is 8.69 years…104.32 months … 76,237 hours. How do I know? My fancy app tells me (I do love my gadgets!)!! And I am eternally grateful. I even wrote a book series called Rock Bottom is a Beautiful Place…. see #1. Books. Visibility.
- After my first marriage ended, a friend got me started with ART. I went nuts~~ in true addict style. You can see some here at Heart Art by Diane. I’ve hosted 7 Heart Art Retreats for women. I still LOVE art, and I totally enjoy playing around in Canva, with all its fancy tools!
- I can sing. In high school, I was one of the leads in Brigadoon and did pretty darn well singing from a balcony into a large theater! I even danced on a stage too!!
So, how about you?
