My job history began in high school.  I held several positions as a waitress, cashier and in retail sales.  Though I came from an upper middle class household, my parents wanted me to get job experience, learn to manage money and to gain interpersonal skills.  My father said working would build my character and I agreed.

College was much the same.  My parents paid for my tuition and board and I waited tables to pay for my books, supplies, food and entertainment.  After I graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University in 1992, I held various jobs and found my niche in corporate project management.

My career took off after I answered telephones at a major financial institution and rose through the ranks to eventually oversee the complex demographic databases supporting an innovative and acclaimed information based strategy.  From that role, I became a consultant and business analyst to various organizations doing website development, business model creation, mentoring and workshop leadership.

I had no plan to leave my career path or industry to pursue a different career path or industry - and most especially not one in metaphysics or natural health - but that is what I did in 2004.

And wow... was that a shock.  Going from a technology/business consulting career to a career in metaphysics & natural health was like going from being a nurse working in a hospital to become a lion tamer working for a circus.  It was completely different from anything I knew and I found myself trying to figure things out as I went along.

This blog is to help those of you who are pursuing a metaphysical or natural health career.
