I'm so excited to announce GRG AZ 1st book give-a-way! Go-Giver, so appropriate for the month of November and it is all about finding strength in places you would never look. I loved this book and was so happy to share it this month. Never estimate the power of yourself and Go Give!!!! Want to know what next month's book give-a-way will be. Stay tuned....it will be so connected to everything that you do, that you you won't even know that you are connecting! Yes, meet- connect-repeat! Know what it is? Come to our next GRG AZ event and find out! Maybe you will be the lucky recipient. All My Best, Patty Carlson On November 21st we had our Inaugural Arizona GRG Meeting and the crowd went wild! With almost 20 sharp women, we introduced the concept of GRG to the Women of AZ! They loved it and said this kind of group was something that they have been craving for a long time! The Go Give Spirit is truly alive and kickin' and we have a wonderful woman who is going to lead the chapter to a wildly successful year of The Golden Rule! Patty Carlson, a long time resident of AZ, resides in beautiful Fountain Hills area and has a daughter in high school and two married children and a grandchild. So she's "Been There, Rocked That!" and is the perfect person to help grow the AZ GRG. Believing in the Golden Rule, Gena L. Schaublin As you may all know, supporting the American Lung Association is my passion because of my personal experience of my father contracting LUNG CANCER without EVER smoking....so it's about CLEAN AIR FOR EVERYONE! Today we walked for the cause! We raised money, we educated the masses about how the ALA is not the first thing people care about however we all have to breath the air. Simply put, we are all ONE, this cause touches ALL of US, whether we want to face it or not and that's why I support this cause and am so proud to be doing my part to get the word out! Ask yourself.......What's my cause? Are you doing your part, are you changing the world one action at a time? Make your move, no one is going to do it for you :) #ChangeTheWorld #JustDoIt #MakeADifference As many of you know may or may not know, my father was diagnosed with LUNG CANCER in 2010. He was never a smoker and was always pretty active throughout his life, so no one can really explain why my father contracted the big "C" or how for that matter! Thankfully, he is a survivor and has been in remission for the last 3 years! He was able to walk my little sister down the aisle at her wedding earlier this month! It was a very special moment for my entire family, but especially for my sister..... So naturally, this is where my passion for the cause comes from and why I support the efforts of the American Lung Association. First of all, a giant THANK YOU to those who have signed up online to walk, donate or do both! I can't begin to express my gratitude... This will be the 6th event I have been involved with to support the American Lung Association in our Fight for Air, Research and implementation of programs to help those with any kind of lung problem! This walk is a short, beautiful course and the auction items are going to be amazing. I would really encourage everyone to come out and support the cause, as we all have lungs and heaven forbid you or any of your loved ones are affected by this terrible disease....because if and when it happens, the news will take your breath away, trust me! This event is less an a month away and you can still sign up online.

Schaublin, the proud daughter of a Lung Cancer Survivor As usual, Alexa Fischer is right on point about how to keep us all in a great "head space" and moving forward in the most positive, productive, happy manner! |
