Seeing The Masculine and Feminine Balance With Magical Eyes

This past weekend, my magical eyes got taken for a wild ride. I encountered one of the most challenging magical eye experiences I have ever taken on. At the time it wasn’t clear to me that my magical eyes were the only thing that would save me in this situation. But I was determined to find the underlying value in the conflict that arose.

Do-Be-Do-Be-Dooo: Being Successful

Do. Be. Do. Be. Do.

Just like everyone else on the planet, my life is a study in the search for happiness. More than just an idle goal, happiness is now a science, and thus I have had many resources to draw on in my quest. 

My search for happiness ran into a little problem around my fortieth birthday, though.

I achieved it.

Once you've achieved happiness, what's left to do?

Make Love, Not Burned Qurans

A church in Gainesville, Florida is planning on burning a stack of Qurans on September 11, the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on our country -- and I, for one,  just have to scream, “NO! This is not the answer!” We are not a nation based on hate or discrimination. Fighting hatred with hatred serves nobody and hurts many.

Politicians from both sides of the red/blue divide (from Hillary Clinton and Obama’s advisors to Sarah Palin), as well as the Pope, General Petraeus, and almost 9000 people on a Facebook page aimed at stopping the madness all agree that this is simply preposterous, disgraceful, and un-American. Not to wax poetic about revolutionary war values, but this country was based on religious freedom first and foremost. How can we condemn those who act out of fear and hatred to hurt those in this country if some of us are doing the same? Didn’t this Gainesville church learn anything in kindergarten or Sunday School -- like “two wrongs don’t make a right” and “love thy neighbor as thyself?” I mean seriously, people. Grow up.

Seeing Our Not-So-Nice Bosses With Magical Eyes

Please welcome the lovely Samantha Novak, who is here to talk about how using Magical Eyes helped her through a very difficult workplace situation. We've all been there, no? Rock on, sister...

When I interviewed at my current job, the hiring manager and I hit it off from the get-go. She was young, hip and seemed to get my sense of humor.

We actually traded pop culture trivia via e-mail during the hiring process. I had a good feeling that this initial bond would translate to a job offer, and I was right. Before I knew it, she was calling to go over the details of the position. I was elated. But once I began working with her, things quickly got confusing. She was hyper-critical and her oscillating moods were hard to read.

Magical Eyes Empowered Me To Own Pink

I was recently given the opportunity to help host the Dallas Pink Posse event on Owning Sexuality. If any of you have met Megan then you know you just don't tell her no. So when she took a shot and asked, I didn't hesitate. But what I didn't realize was that this trip to Texas would take on a life of its own.

Turning Online Friends into Real Life BFFs

The Bloggess Jenny Lawson, Owning PInk's Lissa Rankin, and BlogHer Co-Founder Jory Des Jardins

When I attended the BlogHer 2010 conference last weekend, I was struck by the power of what happens when you gather women (and few token men) together with the intention of supporting each other. My friend Jory Des Jardins is one of the founders of BlogHer.com, and I was SO proud to see her there, gloriously pregnant and radiant with her passion for the yearly estrogen fest of their annual conference. When we first met and she was describing to me what inspired she and her co-founders Lisa Stone and Elisa Camahort Page to launch BlogHer, I didn’t quite get it. Now, after attending the conference, I do. It’s all about building community, empowering women to stand behind and uplift each other, raising the decibels of our voices, and linking arm and arm as we beeline towards our dreams.
