I've been blessed to get to know many absolutely brilliant, inspirational people who have led extraordinary lives. Click on the pics to be taken to their websites so you can see just what kinds of amazingness they have accomplished!
In the limo with the lovely Dr Joyce Keith Hargrove, the wise and gentle Thomas Bahler, the effervescent Gerry Foster, the irrepressible Croix Sather, and the fascinating Nicole Marie Whitney.
With the super sharp "Shark Tank" original Kevin Harrington, and the stunning "Passionist" Janet Attwood. Among other accomplishments by these two, Kevin invented the "Infomercial" and Janet is a world-renowned speaker and creator of The Passion Test.
Gotta love those pics where you're talking, laughing and blinking at the same time...! But at least the brilliant and inspirational Gregg Braden looks great, as always!
Can hardly see Nicole - but oh dear, you can practically hear my giggles...there was some pretty silly conversation happening with the guys up at our end of the limo :o) Nicole has had an interesting career, including radio host of News For The Soul.
As always, my beautiful friend and long-time well-respected radio personality Christina Rowsell is looking stunning at a gallery opening (Michelangelo Gallery of Fine Art)! Such a radiant personality - a lovely woman, inside and out!
With Randy Chevrier, three-time Grey Cup Champion with the Calgary Stampeders, and creator of the brilliant "Tackle Bullying" program. In 2014 Randy was selected by his teammates as the Herm Harrison Memorial Trophy winner in honour of his outstanding community involvement, leadership, and sportsmanship. At the end of the season, Chevrier was voted CFLPA Tom Pate Award recipient for Sportsmanship and Outstanding Commitment to Community.
With friends - the extremely talented mega artist Jason Gogo and the stunning Brittany Michalchuk, brilliant businesswoman and Miss Calgary 2015, who came in 7th at the "Miss Universe" pageant.
During a chat with Livia Manywounds, Calgary Stampede Indian Princess 2007, now filmmaker and businesswoman.
Lovely to meet up with beautiful friends Ellen Percival (owner of "Calgary's Child" Magazine) and Lynn Ferrol Nightingale.
Having way too much fun leading a workshop on "Anxiety: The Silent Killer"
Such a blessing and an honour to call Thomas Bahler my friend - a truly lovely man with a beautiful spirit and an incredible career and legacy. Forty years with Quincy Jones, and working with the likes of Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Tina Turner and many more.
I feel like Sasquatch next to petite powerhouse, Marcia Wieder! This dynamic global visionary is such a lovely woman - and a force to be reckoned with, both on stage and off! She coached Jack Canfield for three years and has coached Oprah, too. One of her many accomplishments is that she is the founder of the Dream University.
The multifaceted Croix Sather ran 100 marathons 100 days in a row - from LA to New York (to name just one of his accomplishments). He's also a deep-thinking gentle soul with a compassionate heart.
There's no one quite like the high-energy Gerry Foster, whose entertaining speaking style is truly one-of-a-kind. Among numerous other accolades, he spent many years working as a branding strategist for Proctor & Gamble. Brilliant man, beautiful soul.
With W. Brett Wilson, Philanthropist, entrepreneur, and three-season panelist on "Dragon's Den"
With my beautiful friend, world-renowned performer Sophie Serafino, Pop Singer, Violinist and Songwriter. Born in London, UK and raised in Sydney, Australia, Sophie has given more than 500 solo performances around the globe of her own compositions, a fusion of exotic rhythms and melodies.
With nearly 20 years of senior leadership experience in the non-profit sector, Sara L. Austin has built a legacy as a champion for the rights of women and children. Her work has taken her into the top circles of power at the United Nations as well as government corridors around the world. She is on “most powerful women” lists, including the prestigious Women of Influence Top 25 ranking. An expert in international human rights law, has led global advocacy campaigns, and shaped major public policy efforts.
With my gorgeous friend Barbara La Pointe, fabulous artist and owner of Michelangelo Gallery of Fine Art and Framing.
With Peter Clarke, President and CEO of The Philanthropy Channel
With our bright and beautiful 2015 Stampede Royalty - Princess Kimberly Stewart, Queen Mick Plemel and Princess Haley Peckham.
My dear friend, media strategist and radio personality Christina Rowsell with Calgary's 2015 Stampede Royalty. Such a lot of beauty all in one place!
Quick, before he was back on camera, a shot of the handsome Jason Krell - and his deliciously sparkly shoes :)
