Uplift: Liane Benedict
I met Liane eight years ago at a conference we were both attending at the Omega Institute. I was struggling with back problems at the time and I wound up lying on the floor for most of the conference. Liane noticed me. She came over to help. She brought me a remedy she had made to alleviate the pain. She comforted me. Years later, when we had become friends she told me something that helps me every day as I grapple with making decisions and finding my place in the world. She said, “Lea, there is so much work to be done in this world, but what is YOUR work?” When I feel overwhelmed by all that is needed I am reminded of this and it never fails to help me find my way. I lift you up dear Liane, for who you are and for YOUR work in this world.

Gratitude: Eva Soffel
This month my deepest gratitude goes to Eva Rose Soffel, my brilliant and compassionate youngest daughter who, without her help and support, this website would not exist. Eva serves as my business manager, sounding board, confidant and soothing presence…“It’s ok.” “We will figure it out.” “What do you need?” She is a reassuring presence in my life and my love and gratitude for her knows no bounds. Thank you Eva, for being such a gift in my life!
