inspiring women in washington

I am sitting in a beautiful "cabin" - think 3,000 sq ft wood mansion - in the Cascade mountains by Lake Wenatchee in Washington State. I just led a yoga retreat weekend for 8 lovely ladies all fifty something - and a couple of guys!
What struck me was how vibrant everyone was. How adult. And I mean that in the "mature" sense of the word, reflecting the inner work this group had done. 3 were therapists. It was such a pleasure to be amongst women of power who know themselves, who they are and what they want. And I do recognize that that is not the case for all women, especially the empty nesters who are needing to discover what they want to experience out of life now that the duty of motherhood can take a back seat.
The book I am writing is an invitation to ask the deeper questions:
Given a free rein and unlimited resources, what do I truly want to do?
What is MY dream?
What gives ME joy? And who?
What am I ready to release?
What do I still want to learn?
My intention is that my own journey will serve as an inspiration for others to do a similar inquiry and follow their own dreams to fulfillment.
Am getting home tomorrow and will send out more of the actual story then!
