Re: Everything is Relative, Including Food

Yeaaaah! It's one of the weirdest things. But it totally makes sense now that I've thought about a bit more. If you were starving out in the desert and you happened upon anything edible, your body would MAKE it taste good so you'd eat it and not starve. :)

That's exactly what I thought too. :) But drinking the maple syrup-y stuff every 15 minutes has kept my sugar levels pretty stable. I'm very much surprised by how easy it was, though I am totally looking forward to real food again.

Re: Do It With Your Eyes Open & Be Awesome: Post-#Shine Wrap Up, pt 1

Woohoo for eyes open! I can imagine the exercise as being a little freaky for me too, but definitely worth it I'm sure.

I love your attitude toward being famous (no matter how small the niche), and really it is something we need to get used to... I mean the freaking out part.

I'm really looking forward to reading the other parts, especially since I didn't go to Shine. So it's extra interesting from an outsider's perspective. ;)

Re: Dry Skin Brushing Helps Eliminate Toxins… and Cellulite?

BillionaireWoman — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 14:47:27 -0000

I used to forget all the time too, actually... But I've been doing it every day before I shower for the past month, and it's really been great. I used to have a really tiny brush, and maybe that's why I didn't feel like doing it too often? Since I switched to the Purest Palm Brush (that's mine in the photo hehe!) I'm a lot more consistent. :)

Ooh I know what you mean Susan. It's definitely been very effective for cleaning out the old insides. ;)

Hehe, it certainly was interesting... and affirming. I look forward to our next get-together, Nathalie.

Hi. Thanks for emailing me.

I've decided to go on vacation and I'm in Paris and Barcelona until
Nov. 14.

Leave me a note and I'll get back to you upon my return or sooner.

Be well,

Tara

Hey Lance!

Ooh it's cool that you considered doing a fast as well. It's something I would never have imagined doing before I heard about raw food, but now it almost seems normal to want to fast at some point in your life.

I am looking forward to sharing more of the real deal, warts and all. (Witchy pun intended!)

Re: The Toronto Meetup Is Exactly What I Need

BillionaireWoman — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 12:58:47 -0000

Yes! It was so awesome to meet you, and I'm sure the meetup will grow and expand over time. I heard the third time's the charm. ;)

And it was really interesting that having an "outsider" to think about made us both appreciate how we are different. Loved it!

Can't wait for the next one.

Re: What is The Master Cleanse?

BillionaireWoman — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:56:56 -0000

I wonder too, Carla. I'm not sure how it would work since from my understand it's the sugar in the maple syrup that keeps your blood sugar from dipping too low. That being said, I think you could probably do well on a juice feast with more veggies than fruits?

I'm not an expert at fasting by any means though, so sorry if this isn't very helpful!

Thanks for sharing your experiences with the lemonade fast. I think it's great to be able to share what we learn along the way too. ;)

Thank you for your super support Michele, I'm so happy to be in this blogosphere with you. :)

Thanks Evelyn! I'll be sharing my insights and how I feel throughout the cleanse / fast. I'm really curious to see how it goes. :)

Oooh I love it! Really funny, and the 4th wall stuff in the eye too. :)

thanks Nathalie! yes, those everything-or-nothing approaches don't work, and that's not how human beings are anyway, in real life ... and everyone knows that.

BillionaireWoman — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 16:14:55 -0000

Shazam! You keep knocking these out of the ballpark Elizabeth!

I can definitely see this applying in the raw food world too. There are certain raw advocates who preach 100% raw.. and then there are people like Sarma who tell us straight up that she drank some beer, and wanted to gnaw on a 2 by 4 during her juice feast/fast. It's so honest and totally disarming, and most importantly it's true! I like to tell people that I'm not 100% raw, I feel better when I eat 100% raw, but I'm not "perfect" or trying to pretend to be either.

Love it!! Keep sharing your truth, you rock!

Hey Chelsea!

The ebook was a pre-launch promotion for my Cure Cravings Program, and the program registration page is now taking its place. You can download the ebook from this link.

Hmm interesting. I've had moments when I felt like there was a force holding back, and usually it was me over analyzing things. Like, I can't juice often because my juicer isn't that good. Or I don't feel like exercising because I have work to do, or whatever. But as soon as I get into the juicing or the exercising, it tends to just keep going by itself. :)

Thanks for sharing your experience, it's super helpful to see how things happen for you.

You've certainly had a lot of experience in this field Carla. I totally agree that there aren't set in stone final answers. It's a process and maybe it's something designed to get us to notice and change things in our life.

Hi Suzen! Thank you for sharing your own struggles. I know what you mean, I tend to skip exercise in exchange for more time on the computer too. ;) What I've found to be helpful is to get a buddy to encourage each other.

Also, making your work outs fun helps too! So if you like to listen to documentaries or audio programs, do it at the same time as you run on your treadmill.

Thanks for commenting, seeing other people's stories helps a lot! :)

Hi Asami!

It's so cool to hear from someone in Japan, it reminds me how truly global the web is. :) And yay ex-cookie-monsters unite! ;)

I'm so glad you're giving green smoothies a try! It might take some time before you feel all the effects, or might be pretty instant, it depends on the person.

And you're very welcome, thank YOU for being here and sharing your story!

Aww I love what you shared Linda! I definitely think we have a lot in common when it comes to coaching and being able to objectively view things.

Having someone else to look to is a way to not taking too much responsibility, in my experience. But I've found a coach to be different, since they can give you an outsider's view and question you so you find out for yourself what the right choice might be.

Love it! :D

Re: Persistence – Knocked Off His Stride, But Not Off His Feet

BillionaireWoman — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 09:45:58 -0000

I sometimes feel the same way Ali. I found that for me I need to really step back and evaluate what it means to me, and how I "feel" in my body before I decide to go for it or change course.

P.S. I get ya with the "people who need to take no for an answer" sometimes thing. ;)

Re: Info Products Fail

elizabethpw — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 18:21:01 -0000

I'm going to retool/relaunch The Money Tree System (or whatever I end up calling it) in Dec/Jan, using this new format. And, I have *tons* of new content around financial stuff that I want to add, anyway. :)

Re: Info Products Fail

BillionaireWoman — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 17:06:36 -0000

Aww your daughter is just adorable!

Ahem. Info products. I'm pretty sure I'm a recovering info product junkie. I found that online course do work much better for me though. Like actually doing the work / learning the content with other live people makes a HUGE difference! It keeps you accountable, moving forward, and just plain old more fun too.

So yes info products fail. And honestly I can't keep tons of binders or DVDs because I like to keep things simple... in case I move again. ;) I think your Money Tree System is great, and would do even better in a virtual format like you're doing now.

Plus, it's good for the trees. ;)
