Dear Wellness Seekers,
Good News Monday: Manhattan Arrival Brings Adrenalin Rush. Happily, the flight to New York was easier than most I’ve experienced – skies were clear blue, planes flew on time, transfer gate across the hall in Atlanta, gate available upon arrival at Laguardia, luggage made transfer, no one waiting in line at the Taxi stand (REALLY!). These are good omen signs for this was great start 2015!
The view from the Southwest Airline’s plane was spectacular as the flight course took us south over lower Manhattan Island and I could take a quick pic over the shoulder of a flight mate without disturbing her to get a pic of the Statue of Liberty. Hard to phantom I actually got a clear shot Lady Liberty from me aisle seat. Although little she is you can see her brings Spanista joy. I feel in love with her when I lived in Manhattan as I saw her often and it was the symbol of home when I flew back from international locals. The goods news is she stands strong as a symbol of freedom and she is our historical link to France who needs our emotional support right now. (My grand mother was born outside of Paris.)
When the taxi speeds over the Manhattan Bridge into The City I can feel my heartbeat picking up pace and I relish NYC as a living reminder of best of what America is. Here for everyone to enjoy who wish to partake. A city where your destiny can manifest in a big way if you seek it..jpg)

I am here to participate in the National Retail Federation’s Global BIG SHOW Conference (NRF) held at the Javits Center where over 35, 000 people from around the world come to share innovation, knowledge, experience, guidance and stories about their brands and businesses. We learn well from each other and grow. I have made many friends within the retail community, participated on the marketing board, presented ideas to the attendees and networked. This event is one of the highlights of my professional life so I would not miss it for the world. Old friends will reunite and new friends will be made this year. The city brings us together joyfully and we feed our thirst for inspiration.
I am particularly keen to learn about ways I can strengthen Spanista to improve the experience of for YOU, Wellness Lovers and Spa Enthusiasts. I want to take you with me on The Spanista Journey because I am very interested in continuing the dialogue we created in 2014 and give you more of what you want and need to improve your Self Care Journey to Joy!
As you can see the view coming into Midtown is glorious on this clear crisp day. I look froward to settling in and letting this new experience unfold. Stay tuned as I share new chapters.
Have a marvelous week – and remember to be thankful for the freedoms we have worthy of protecting.
To Your Self Care Journey to Joy,
