Coach Sappho’s ’5 Steps to an Amazing Life’ Tele-Seminar

Sign up NOW:

Wednesday, August 5, 2009 – 7p ET

Doesn’t it seem that the challenges of living and loving in today’s world are more interesting than ever? Today’s world is fast-paced, and, frankly, chaotic in ways that threaten your happiness and prosperity.  Unless, that is: you figure out for yourself: how do I want to live and, how can I support the life I envision for myself?

Back in the wild, wild west, the lone ranger had her ‘hey day’.  In today’s world, being a lone ranger doesn’t work.  You need support for staying true to your vision, your goals and YOUR success.

And, as lesbian women, our challenges, given all of the above, are additionally complex.  We don’t live in ‘closeted’ world anymore, and we can live and love as openly as we want today.  However, letting go of old ways of thinking and being are difficult.  And, while today’s world is more tolerant of who we are, because we are challenging the ‘status quo’ on many fronts, we must be ready for any and all responses to us as we are being who we truly are.

Enter a helpful, supportive, tele-seminar, led by Coach Sappho…

Our teleseminars, led by a Coach Sappho coach, are transformative experiences.  Our founder, Barb Elgin, MSW, LCSW, created Coach Sappho and all of it’s many resources, with today’s lesbian woman in mind.  We’ve been in business serving lesbians since 2001 and, we’ve touched the lives of lesbians in over 45 states and 15 countries.

This seminar is well worth time spending on YOU…

’5 Secrets to an Amazing Life’ is a powerful, one hour program created to support and inspire you in living YOUR most amazing life, however you define it!  In the process of joining Barb for this one hour, you will discover new ideas for creating your most amazing life…starting right away!

You can’t afford not to give yourself the gift of this experience. 

Why not start the fall and ‘change of seasons’ on a positive note?

HERE’S THE LOGISTICS: During this one hour call, you will learn 5 cool secrets to experiencing more of what you want in your life.

And, here’s the BONUS: If you begin to use these secrets in your life right away, you will notice positive changes, right away!

Also: You will learn these important tips from the comfort, privacy and convenience of your phone and/or internet connection.  And, if for some reason you don’t make the live call, don’t worry – all registrants will receive a complimentary streaming and mp3 copy of the call to listen to again and again.

BEST OF ALL – You get all of the above for only $5!

Well hello!  How have you been?  It’s been busy as usual over here at Coach Sappho.

  • Looking on the bright side this week I’d like to congratulate the State of Maine, who became the 16th state to add sexual orientation and gender identity to a Maine law that bars discrimination in employment, housing, credit, public accomodations and education.
  • How’s your love life?  If you’ve ever been in a relationship over a year, you know things tend to “cool down.”  But, is it inevitable that they “cool off?”  I’ll never forget what the psychology professor I took a Human Sexuality class with in college said:

Did you know that your biggest sex organ is between your ears!?!

Yes, indeed, is she nuts, now, just what did she mean?  That imagination, mystery and creativity are sexy turn ons!  So, don’t let your brain cells go limp when it comes to sex and intimacy, even if you are not in a relationship (catch my drift!).  ;-)

Hate to break it to you but love isn’t all wine, roses and, for some of us, chocolates!  We have to add a dash of brain food in there too once in awhile.

Make time for sensuality in your life, you deserve it (and it’s no doubt great for stress reduction!).  Stimulate your dendrites and they will give you a tingle!

And, if you’re looking for suggestions to jump start your brain, here’s a couple of my favorite books/tapes on the subject:

Hot Monogamy by Pat Love, EdD (book) (audiotape) – excellent ideas delivered in an often humorous manner.  I just love Pat Love!!!

The Whole Lesbian Sex Book by Felice Newman – full of education and information

Or, here’s a simple suggestion that goes the distance:  each of you should make a list of activities you’ve gotten away from doing that you enjoy or that you’ve fantasized about or want to try.  Then, be sure to do one of those activities at least once a week, alternating back and forth.  And, again, if you are a single slinger, make a list and treat yourself.

Champions keep playing until they get it right! – Billie Jean King

And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. – Anais Nin

For those of us in the northern hemisphere, spring has sprung!  While it may not feel that way yet (hey – it’s even been dark, chilly and rainy here in Central Florida the past couple of days!), you can bet warm, sunny days are just around the bend.

WHAT’S HAPPENING AT COACH SAPPHO:  Look what Coach Sappho has been cookin’ up for you, to keep you warm and toasty till lady spring pokes her head out:

Famous author, Angela Bonavoglia is Coach Sappho’s “Uncommon Courage” guest for March 2005.

Thursday, 3/31/05, from 7-8pm EST

Coach Sappho’s ‘Creating a Life I Love’ Club’s “Uncommon Courage” guest for March 2005 is a fabulous ally by the name of Ms. Angela Bonavoglia.  I met Ms. Bonavoglia about 18 months ago while interviewing Kathy Itzin, the catholic religious education instructor from Minnesota who had a lifetime achievement award taken back by her city’s bishop when he found out she was a lesbian.

Angela Bonavoglia has just published her latest book, Good Catholic Girls:  How Women are Leading the Fight to Change the Church.  Angela Bonavoglia is an award-winning journalist and author who covers social, health, religious and women�s issues. A previous book on abortion, The Choices We Made, was featured on Oprah. Her feature articles, investigative reports, op-eds, personal essays, and profiles have appeared in Ms. (longtime contributing editor), the Chicago Tribune, Redbook, Mirabella, Cosmopolitan, Newsday, and The New York Times, among other publications.

Angela’s article, “The Church�s Tug of War,” about women as an invisible force for reform in the Roman Catholic Church, was the lead article in The Nation in the wake of the clergy sex abuse scandals of 2002.

I can’t wait to talk with her about how and why she chose the career path she is on today.  Aren’t you curious?  I hope you will join her and I via the teleconference bridge on March 31st for an exciting discussion.  If you have specific questions you’d like me to ask her during the interview, email me so I can prepare.
