My Journey:

The Birth of a Midlife Crisis/Awakening


Are you stuck in a midlife funk? I sure was…..

Like so many women, I woke up one day and realized that I wasn’t living the life I envisioned. I was stressed, overweight, overwhelmed, overworked, in debt, and in a rut.

I felt like I was sleepwalking through my days. I knew there had to be more to life.

  • More money
  • More flexibility
  • More fun
  • More adventure
  • More job satisfaction
  • More passion
  • More laughter
  • More vitality

And time was running out (or that’s what it felt like).

I have always been a personal growth kind of gal and so I did what I always do when I have a problem – I starting doing research. And then I did some more. I have spent years reading books, listening to personal development CD’s, and going to seminars.

Have you ever read a really inspiring book or went to an educational motivating seminar and you vowed to implement changes in your life? Then life happened and you forgot all the neat tips and tools you learned about? This was my M.O. for years. I would get all fired up about a new thing and then get distracted with one thing or another until the next new thing came along.

When I hit 40, I learned about the law of attraction and EVERYTHING changed. It resonated so strongly with me that I couldn't put it on the back burner. It made me really understand that I was 100% responsible for how I lived my life, how happy I was (or wasn't) and that I could deliberately choose the life I wanted to live.

Sounds simple, right? Well this simple light bulb moment changed my life. I somehow never thought that such a simple concept could have such a tremendous impact. I used to think that if it's complicated and takes a lot of hard work it must be better - yikes, I’m glad I got over that crazy belief.

I knew instinctively that EVERYONE deserves to have a happy fulfilling life and I knew that “just getting by” was not why we are here.

My midlife crisis was a life-changing event AND it was the best thing that ever happened to me.

All the books, CD’s, seminars, and soul searching over the past 10 years paid off:

  • I’m 100% debt-free

  • I’ve found the most creative outlets to take me to the next phase of my life (midlife) by starting my own business

  • I live with purpose and on purpose (much of the time)

  • I’ve at peace with the weight issues I’ve had (pretty much since birth)

  • I understand that happiness is MY choice – and I choose to be happy!!!

I've done this almost effortlessly (after many years of struggle) just by understanding some pretty basic concepts about the law of attraction and taking responsibility for my own happiness. My life changed instantly when I learned these concepts and it is my passion to help others understand them as well.

The ideas and teachings on this website are a result of years of struggle, research, more struggle, more research and some breathtaking life changing a-ha moments. I’ve done all the work for you; just sit back and enjoy. My wish is that you benefit immensely from these ideas and solutions as much as I have.

Do I have everything I want now? Of course not, no matter where you are in life you always desire new things, ideas, and experiences. When you reach your goals life lets you choose new goals.

The most important thing you can do is make being happy your number one priority. Get happy and watch your health improve, your finances grow, your relationships thrive and your energy and passion soar. That's what life is all about isn't it?



The Birth of a Website

I felt compelled to start this website after I was fortunate enough to attend the 2009 Presidential Inauguration. It’s hard to articulate how it felt to be in a place with over a million people who were all in a positive, hopeful, happy state.


We were smooshed together like sardines in the freezing cold for hours and hours. You can image what these conditions could have been like on any other day. But because the energy was so great, we didn’t even notice these things. The positive energy in that crowd was palpable - you could feel it. It didn’t matter what anyone’s political affiliation, background, race, or religion was on that day; it just didn’t matter - we were all the same that day.

It made me think just how powerful we could be if everyone felt like that every day. I live every day now with the mission to be happy and I wish the same for you. I combined this new energy with my other desire to have a successful internet business and happyhalfway.com was born. I already had a successful internet site about my dog Luc so I knew that I had the right tools to make it happen.

What a joy it is to work on my own business and watch it grow every single day. It’s a labor of love and it’s all mine. If you’d like to learn more about how you can turn your hobbies or passions into income you can learn more here.

WE ARE MEANT TO BE HAPPY AND LIFE IS SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD.



With love and appreciation,
