The Business Soul Sessions

Dear faithful readers, friends and family,
I have not written in a while as I have been busy drawing up a plan to take the vineyard/wine adventure to the next level, the next level being making a profit and climbing out beyond negative numbers.  In order to do this I have been taking courses, (I tell my husband, "you've got to spend it to make it right now"), and haven't had much time to blog, being all consumed with "the idea". The idea stemmed from a need I had when studying for the exams for the Court of Master Sommeliers.  Helping me chart my way to actually realizing the idea is the course Business Soul Sessions by Kelly Rae Roberts, artist, author and possibilitarian, as she calls herself and her business partner for the Business Soul Sessions E-Course, Beth Nicholls of Do What You Love.
The course is for anyone who wants to pursue a business idea, further their business, define their business potential, define themselves and their goals, but the bottom line of the course is always knowing who you are, soul-deep, and choosing a path that doesn't compromise who you are.  Some might think that it's done in an artsy-sort-of way, and while most participants in the course are artists, the same business plan product is materializing for me, but in a way that is so much more authentic, purposeful and meaningful than following a template.  The plan is mine and true to me.   I am also enrolled in two more courses, working part time, tying down the vines,...and arranging tastings too.
You can be sure there are stories to be told, but I have to get some work and thinking out of the way.  I will be back.
Thanks for checking in.

While searching on google,for this recommended course from you, I fall on your blog! I haven't seen it before. I seen your picture.You showed me, but not the blog. I am reading a book:"Do what you love and the money will follow", from Marsha Sinetar, but this is not what you refer on your blog...Anyway, looking for Soul Sessions, this look very interesting. I am not registering yet as I have a few things on my plate but will keep that in mind...Thank you
