I’ve got to be honest. After How Much Joy Can You Stand went out of print, I was kind of stymied about how the joy work should move forward. My literary agent had lost interest in me. Living Your Joy wasn’t selling all that many copies. I was no longer getting much in the way of speaking invites. I was feeling like a Joy has-been. Except for you, fair readers. I really needed to stay connected to my Joy Letter readers, and something deep in my gut said ‘Keep on writing this Joy work’ and let it evolve as it will. So it has … and is! As I develop my marketing site, www.getknownnow.com and become more involved in helping coaches, healing professionals, authors and consultants reach more people, I’ve begun to see how this relates directly to my Joy work and you Joy folks. For you, I’m here to prod you forward (as ever) AND give you tools to make those dreams reality AND help YOU find your people. ‘Your people’ are those you are meant to work with. The folks your soul is meant to connect with. The recipients of your dream work. So my mission with both my Joy folks and my Get Known Now audiences has merged into a single, fairly focused path – to move you all forward on your path so you fulfill your mission in life more completely. I’ve evolved from just talking about joy, to moving people to live their dreams, to giving them day to day tools to live their joy – and now, to learning how to market that joy. That may mean I send you creativity tips and encouragement. Or move you to tighten up your brand and web site. Or teach you automatic marketing techniques. All of them are productive because You are one and the same audience – the coaches, healers and consultants I’m meant to touch. It’s all coming together in my mind … and I have been wondering, for a long time, what this connection seems to be. (Mind you, I’ve been guided all along the way, so I don’t question most of the time … just do.) But there it is. My ah-ha moment. Delivered to you courtesy of yet another great work session at Speeder & Earl’s, Burlington VT. Thanks for listening. |
Suzanne,
Give yourself a big pat on the back. You are doing your job very well! Your new mission is working for me as my dream has taken a new direction since Taos. Without your Get Known Now work, I would not have seen the possibilities that are being presented to me. I am off on a new healing path. Thank you !
