		<description>I read emoms even though I no longer have children at home because it was so interesting and I was a single Mom when I was young with three toddlers under four - and working full time!  And I forwarded her articles to young mothers and stumbled a few!

I wish I had her advice at that time.  I could have used a buddy!

Much luck with her new venture.  How can she lose?

Hope you are having fun in Las Vegas.  Don't try to fly the plane!

Your interview was, as always, perceptive and asked the questions people really would like to hear the answers to!  You are a pro, Stephen!

		<description>Wow Stephen, I haven't been around that long here, but this is definitely one of my favorite interviews you have done.  

Yes, Karen that is an amazing quote.  I often ponder where exactly it is we learn to think little and give up on our dreams.  I guess it's different for each person.  I think basically it's a bunch of well meaning people who don't want us to get hurt.  We just need someone to teach us from the beginning to dream big and that God DID make us for GREAT things!- that we will fail, but we can learn from each failure.  It took me so long to figure that out.  I finally got some guidance in the right direction.  It was a hard journey, but I'm grateful for it and am who I am today because of it.  I am making it a point to teach my children these things if I become a parent one day.  

Wendy, I absolutley love your attitude, how you are using everything for good.  Just think, you would not be whoe you are today without all those struggles.  But now, you are so beautiful and doing great things.  I wish you so much continued success!  Thank you for being so open and honest about your life.     I'm about to change up my blog, so it was helpful to hear your experience with that.

		<description>Lisa:

I'm so glad you had fun with this one!  I love it when we learn more about the blogger because "stuff" about themselves that are not otherwise known come seeping out.  It makes for a very interesting reading, don't you think?

Like for example, I had NO idea that Wendy was a person who struggled with self-hatred, most notably as a bulimic.

Revealing answers like these truly get to the core of who we are as human beings and how we become who we are today.  

I am grateful for people like Wendy and everyone else who I've interviewed for sharing their authentic responses for the rest of us to digest and be inspired.</description>

		<description>Wendy,
Thank you for sharing your story with us. I find it so fascinating how unique our backgrounds really can be! I also thank you for opening up to some very personal journeys. 

Karen, I totally know the feeling about "holding back" and being scared of success. 

Looking forward to part II.

It's also one of my favorite quotes and I'm usually thinking about it, especially when I'm faced with a decision to leap forward (or not).</description>

		<description>I love that quote-- in fact, I just commented about that quote on BlogHer yesterday and how I think I'm actually scared of success.  Being afraid probably holds me back! 

Wendy is indeed, an amazing gal.  Looking forward to chatting with you both at SOBCon! :)
