I haven’t lived just one life…I’ve packed in about 5 lives so far! That’s what life is for!
We are told today by social media to niche down but that may not work for some, or a lot of us. You don’t have to abandon some interests, knowledge, goals, passions and talents to try to get a foothold. You can use it ALL!
GO AFTER WHATEVER SPEAKS TO YOU! It might work, it might not work or it might work for a while. That is the reason you have many talents, interests, and paths and THAT brings you more options. We need as many opportunities as we can get today.
When a door opened for me I walked through. When there wasn’t one available to me I made my own door, window or fire escape and created projects, businesses and blueprints from scratch.
You could say I’m ambitious. (I would!) Why else would I have done all these things?:
ENTERTAINMENT:
Singer, dancer, actor (film, tv, stage, commercials, industrials, voiceovers), choreographer, stage director, professional water skier, professional circus artist on the Spanish web and show “girl”, stunt person (I still hold the honor of best stunt per Soap Opera Digest for Susan Lucci on All My Children. I fell three stories backwards. In heels!), stage artistic director, theatre company owner, stunt coach at a university, television company co-owner and producer, voiceover artist, and voice over director for television. I also ran a department of a theatre management company, and probably a few things I’ve missed.
BUSINESS:
Co-owned 2 restaurants, and one fitness center, and owned a cinema.
WITH ANIMALS:
(truth be told, the biggest thrill of all!):
A veterinary technician, an in-home animal care business, assisted my sister, who was the head dietician at a well-known animal park, (and is a cat expert), with caring for white tiger cubs, a coati, and a fennec fox. I worked as a tour guide for a well-known parkwith ocean animals which included educating about cetaceans, caring for a shark tank, and a tide pool. (I’ll admit I am conflicted about this, but it spurred me on to become an animal conservationist.)
THE HEALING ARTS:
I’m a six-time certified Master Meditation Teacher, currently only available to train teachers in becoming responsible and aware meditation teachers.I’m also a third level Qigong teacher. I bring that into the ways I approach meditation.

FOOTNOTE:
I dabbled in politics for a nano-second working for a political committee and I really did NOT enjoy it. HOWEVER, it opened my eyes WIDE to the process. I learned more than I wished I’d learned.
WHEW, and I’m not close to being done yet and “resting on my laurels”. That’s SO BORING!
