BRINGING CLARITY & PROSPERITY TO OUR OFFICE SPACE WITH FELICIA MESSINA D'HAITI
The truth is, the way we arrange our home and office spaces reflect what’s going on in our minds and in our lives. In order to move forward in life and with your career, you have to get your physical space under control (and part of control is knowing when to let go of what is no longer useful). That’s why feng shui and space clearing are so important. Today, we will learn tips and strategies to empower ourselves by bringing organization, clarity and prosperity to our spaces.
Felicia Messina-D’Haiti is an Energy Empowerment Practitioner, working with clients who are eager to create balance and embrace positive healing energies in their bodies, minds and environments. Felicia is a certified Usui Reiki Master, Advanced Practitioner of Interior Alignment© and Medicine Wheel Feng Shui, Gateway Dreaming™ Coach and Soul Coach.

YOU Are the HERO of Your Story with Andrea Hylen
Every woman is born with an innate wisdom, an inner authority and a deep knowing. On the journey of life, there are challenges, obstacles, and disappointments. Dreams that do not come true die within us. We get discouraged, disappointed and sometimes we give up. Many times, women forget about this inner authority and begin to look for the answers from other people. You may have looked outside of yourself for approval or guidance expecting that someone else knows more than you do even though there ideas and suggestions don’t feel right to you.
Andrea Hylen, the founder of Heal My Voice, will share stories about learning to listen to her own voice and why she feels it is important for each woman to write her story and discover a fuller expression of who she is NOW!
This will be experiential. Andrea will guide us in listening within for the Story that is "asking you to write it now.” The power is in being an individuated Self in a community circle of collective energy with women.
Join us for the experience!
Andrea Hylen is the Founder of Heal My Voice and Live a Life Worth Celebrating. Both organizations are dedicated to healing grief, loss and trauma and guiding the way to a life lived from a deeper, richer place. The businesses emerged out of her willingness to look at life fearlessly and ask the question, “Why?’ Heal My Voice programs provide a safe haven for women to write their personal stories and in the process experience a profound healing. In the writing, gentle reading and editing, listening and support, using vulnerability as power, the voices of women emerge clearer and stronger.
Heal My Voice has ongoing book circle projects and workshops for women to heal a story in their lives in circles with women. The Inward Journey Letter Circle is a collaborative initiative with Imagine the Good Foundation connecting women who reside in the free world with women who reside in prison in one to one letter writing to share wisdom and learn from each other.
Andrea is the co-author of Conscious Choices: An Evolutionary Woman’s Guide to Life. She also serves as an inspirational speaker and workshop leader at retreats and conferences.
