As we celebrate the birthday of the United States (July 4) as well as Canada (July 1) it gives me a moment to pause and realize what has transpired in the last year. The growth both for me personally and for my business.
Therapy in Transition began 20 months ago as an idea of my dog being a pet therapist on the go visiting those which are home bound due to medical challenges. It was a great focus for me as it gave me reason to come to terms with loosing my dog Tito to bone cancer. After his death I began to wonder what the real purpose was for Therapy in Transition. It flourished into what it is now and every week which goes by the larger picture keeps getting larger and more in focus - crisper. July 1, 2007 is the official 'birth' of Therapy in Transition and with this first year behind I am more in line with my life's journey and it's purpose than ever before.
I am excited about the Seraphim Sphere beginning in September, my first book being completed in 2009 and the partnerships which are being nurtured now.
I have become clearer with my non-profit Sponsor a Teacher Program than ever before and I am excited about how quickly it is already moving forward.
So with this next year of moving forward I send out birthday wishes to everyone; embrace the changes which are coming and rejoice for all we have experienced.
Thanks for reading, and until next time ... Embrace your inner wisdom.
Namaste,
Karen

Sponsor a Teacher Revived!!!
I cannot express how excited I am. As most of you know I had made the decision four or five months ago to let go of the non-profit I started in 1998 as I could not get enough 'umph' behind it to really make it successful and I was running out of steam myself.
Well .... inspiration hit me last night and I am totally rejuvenated and over the moon at the possibilities for it. The best part is I don't have to worry about the change of focus affecting my designation as the focus is still the same ... supporting public school classrooms to improve the educational experience of the students ... but now it is embracing a 'green' perspective.
Sponsor a Teacher will be working with those classrooms who want to embrace a 'green' approach to their educational experience thus ensuring their students embrace an environmentally friendly learning experience and lifestyle.
I am not 100% sure how this is going to happen or unfold over the next few months but stayed tuned also ...
We are reviving our board of directors and need to find six amazing individuals who are a variety of backgrounds that would like to spend 2 - 3 hours a month at a meeting lending their time, expertise and financial support.
Your time would be the 2 - 3 hours at monthly board meetings and other communication between these meetings.
Your expertise would be in either Marketing, Public Relations, Legal, Financial, Education - K-8 or 9 - 12 teaching or administrative, and IT.
Your financial support would be to bring with you potential donors and donations to help cover the costs of administrative services and overhead fees such as web hosting, website design, marketing, and public relations costs.
Please contact me if you are interested in becoming an active and participative member of the board or would like to volunteer your time/services to help get this amazing program off the ground.
Have a wonderful and abundant 4th of July!
Namaste,
Karen

Happy Canada Day
Being Canadian is something I am very proud of and whenever possible I try to express it or show it some positive way. So of course my son will definitely be growing up knowing this half of his heritage. Here is a picture of him sporting some Canadian support - check out his shoes.
This is just a quick blog to wish everyone a Happy Canada Day!!
Namaste,
Karen
