This week is a BIG week for me. Not only is it my 35th birthday (!!!) but I’m officially closing in on the date that began my decade-long journey to becoming the writer, author, screenwriter, coach, entrepreneur, etc. that I am today.
September 22, 2008. That was the date I set in January 2008 as the deadline for writing the first draft of my first novel. My 25th birthday.

I really needed to hear this one today. So I decided to write it for you. Because if I need to hear it, then it’s very likely that you do too.

Today at 3 p.m. Eastern Time is the debut episode of my limited-time online radio show, 35 and Divorced.
The opportunity to do this radio show happened three weeks ago. I sent an email out to my community sharing an update about what I’ve been doing for the past couple of months.
