Networked Blogs to Facebook

As I prepared this past week to be a part of the 15th Birthday of the “Imagine a Woman” event, I rushed to update my profiles on social networking and to create a Fan Page for Navigate from the Heart Coaching on Facebook.

I wanted to be sure that all of my blog posts show up in that environment, too. So I used an application called “Netwroked Blogs” to automate posting.

If you are reading this on Facebook, then I did it right! Ain’t technology grand?

“Imagine a Woman” Turns 15

Today, I have the privilege of wishing happy 15th birthday to the “Imagine a Woman” poem. The poem inspired my own “rebirth.” From the moment I heard it read, it’s message resonated within my heart. To this day, I cannot read it without a tear in my eye.

Growing up, I experienced the loss of my own “voice” and belief in myself. I grew to believe that if I put everyone else’s needs ahead of my own, I would loved and not abandoned. It was not until I heard the words: “Imagine a woman who trusts and respects herself. A woman who listens to her needs and desires. Who meets them with tenderness and grace”— that I truly understood that it was OK to be me. How freeing!

I am not alone on the journey to reclaim the truth about myself. My most heartfelt desire and calling is to share this message with my sisters everywhere, so that you, too, may know the depth of joy that I now experience because of this life-changing poem. I invite you to check out the Imagine a Woman Worldwide Community at its website: www.imagineAwoman.com and give your heart the opportunity to smile.   

I wish you love and wholeness, Mara Castello
