Nasa's Granny Guru - Jean Newell

From Real Estate to NASA - After 35 years in real estate, Jean Newell was faced with starting over after the U.S. economy came crashing to its knees. Jean is a shining example of how you can change your life if you 'Never Give Up'. She reinvented herself even while dealing with a medical problem that limited her options and mobility. Living in Melbourne, Florida (near Kennedy Space Center) on the east coast also known as the Space Coast, the job market relies heavily on the Space Program which will generate an estimated 6,000 - 9,000 layoffs when the program closes. Even though Jean doesn't have a degree and "on paper" would certainly not have looked like a good risk, she has turned her adversity into a business Cinderella story. Recently NASA selected her to be a mentor and trainer for their entrepreneurial training program put in place to retrain their laid off engineers. Because she's 63 years old she is now known as "NASA's Granny Guru". Jean hopes others hear her story and realize that if she was able to overcome adversity then perhaps they, too, can gain the confidence to turn around their situation. Her new book will be coming out soon, "Turn Your Pink Slip Into A Red Hot Business". Tune in to hear her story.

Happy Thanksgiving

...The Whale... If you read a recent front page story of the San Francisco Chronicle, you would have read about a female humpback whale who had become entangled in a spider web of crab traps and lines. She was weighted down by hundreds of pounds of traps that caused her to struggle to stay afloat. She also had hundreds of yards of line rope wrapped around her body, her tail, her torso, a line tugging in her mouth. A fisherman spotted her just east of the Farallon Islands (outside the Golden Gate) and radioed an environmental group for help. Within a few hours, the rescue team arrived and determined that she was so bad off, the only way to save her was to dive in and untangle her. They worked for hours with curved knives and eventually freed her. When she was free, the divers say she swam in what seemed like joyous circles. She then came back to each and every diver, one at a time, and nudged them, pushed them gently around as she was thanking them. Some said it was the most incredibly beautiful experience of their lives. The guy who cut the rope out of her mouth said her eyes were following him the whole time, and he will never be the same.
May you, and all those you love, be so blessed and fortunate to be surrounded by people who will help you get untangled from the things that are binding you. And, may you always know the joy of giving and receiving gratitude.
I pass this on to you, my friends, in the same spirit.

It's a good life !
