  The euphoric bullshit Nancy White is a Seattle-based goddess/consultant who incorporates a lot of online community/technical consulting into her work.  I can understand why Canadians would like to take credit for her:  she is a dazzling, wild goddess.  But she is American.

      Hi Tree:

      Was the 'dazzling' event the big one  - the invitation only one?  
      Wasn't that soon?  I really liked the poem..........is Nancy White from 
      Canada - if she is, then she's the Nancy White living in Toronto, but 
      originally from Charlottetown, PEI - who I went to high school with.

      When is your surgery?  Soon I expect.  You sound as if you are full of 
      energy......and that is a good thing.

      I'm in the throes of a lot of work.  Just in the middle of a 2 day 
      workshop called "Out of Hiding".  Plus, just got 2 large contracts with 
      the federal government, involving work with 2 groups of 12 that will 
      extend over 120 days for each group............and will include 
      'in-room' work, 1-1 coaching, a listserve and lots of reading and 
      listening to CD's.  One group is all women, one is a diversity council 
      group of both men and women.  A lot of work, and I feel somewhat 
      overwhelmed - but it is what my intention was all about!

      And, I must breathe and allow my body to give me direction on how to 
      handle this one!

      Would love to hear from you - particularly were you are in terms of 
      getting in touch with your daughter.

      Love
      Cathy
