This first class is an introduction of what the workshop is all about. You’ll also be invited to determine what you hope to get out of this workshop so you can keep your goals in mind.
Welcome to the first class of The Five Facets Of Feminine Grace.
Someone recently asked me what I do and instead of a big speech, I simply said, “I teach people how to love.”
In this class, it’s about you learning to love yourself. I mean deeply and profoundly.
I’m honored that you have chosen to take advantage of what this workshop offers. This is all about you. It’s all about understanding yourself better so you become empowered to make choices for yourself, not being run by an unknown Program.
You are stepping onto a path of self-discovery that will open doors to a life filled with more magic and many beautiful moments.
Introduction
Why Feminine Grace?
Dancing spontaneously in your living room… Walking in nature, taking in the quiet beauty… Laughing with friends… Breaking into song… Expressing gratitude for your amazing life…
Do you do these types of things on a regular basis? Do you allow yourself to be happy simply because you’re alive?
When your energy is flowing this way, you naturally make magic all the time. You won’t be able to help yourself.
Do you realize how magnificent you are? That you are a fabulous, glorious, magical being?
Can you feel it?
Through the following week’s classes, I want you to be able to feel it, own it, dance with it, so much so that every cell of your body literally vibrates with the joy of it.
That, more than anything, is what it means to be a woman who glows with Feminine Grace.
Anything that takes away from your sense of how glorious it is to be you will detract from your full expression of being a woman, of being you, and your full and complete enjoyment of it. When you’re feeling magnificent, your light shines brightly.
The happier you are, the brighter your light will shine, which will make you more attractive to everyone you meet, especially that special man.
You Are Multi-Faceted
I’ve always liked the metaphor of facets. First, there’s a rock. Usually it’s pretty ugly. But to the eye of a geologist, who can see what lies within, there is potential beauty.
As the gem cutter begins his work, he starts to reveal the beauty of the stone within. He does so by cutting facets into the stone, then polishing it. Depending on the original shape of the stone, and the desired outcome, the gem cutter determines the number of facets.
This Is All About You
This program is about you. But it’s also about all women.
There is a sisterhood, a kind of connection to all women, throughout time. I don’t mean to get too mushy here, but I’ve discovered from personal experience that the more connected I’ve become to women, the more my sense of self has grown, and the more my Feminine Grace has expanded.
More than anything, I want you to be able to fall in love with yourself and celebrate your womanness.
Note: I understand womanness isn’t a word, but I’m making it a word here and I’ll be using it throughout this program. I hope you don’t mind. I find that womanliness just doesn’t have the same sense or energy as womanness.
This class is about you developing a new level of happiness beyond anything you’ve ever experienced. And it’s about your ability to love and be loved more deeply than you ever dreamed possible.
You, like the stone, can have many facets. Some you were born with, like a particular skill or talent, or an attractive physical trait. Some came about because of how you were raised. Some you cut and polished because of a special interest.
But you have even more facets that can become a part of your inner and outer beauty. You get to choose and you get to decide to make them a reality, shining bright.
I chose five facets to describe Feminine Grace because they seemed to fit with what I wanted to share with you. But I will share more in future workshops.
Because you are multi-faceted, I hope you will see that you can reveal existing facets by polishing them to a bright finish, as well as cut new ones as you expand and evolve your potential as the woman you were meant to be.
Assignment #1
What You Will Need
Here are the materials you’ll need in order to get the most out of this workshop:
- A notebook or journal (preferably something beautiful you will enjoy writing in)
- A willingness to be completely honest with yourself
- An open, curious mind
- An open heart, especially for yourself

Assignment #2
What Do You Hope To Gain From This Workshop
One of the most powerful ways to get more out of everything you do is to set intentions for yourself. Whether you’re planning a vacation, painting a vase of flowers, dating a new man, or making love with your husband, you have the power to set the tone of an interaction with another person, to get more out of an experience, or to surrender to the unfolding of magic.
One way to do that is to ask yourself, “Why am I doing this? What do I hope to gain? How do I want it to turn out?” So let’s try it here. Before our first class, do the following:
Listen to the ‘What Do You Hope To Gain’ Meditation below. Then, while you’re still in a deeply relaxed state, pick up your journal and write what you hope to get out of taking this workshop and doing the assignments.
Ask yourself these questions:
- How do you want your life to change?
- How do you want you to change?
- What do you hope this workshop will do for you?
Doing this assignment will help you get much more of what you want out of this experience so please don’t skip it.
