Renaissance Woman

Welcome
to my column "The Modern Renaissance Woman."
I'm very excited about being a part
of a new movement for today's woman. Together, we are going to enter upon a
journey of self-discovery and excellence as we explore the modern Renaissance
woman! We will be discussing topics that can spark
your imagination and stimulate your mental, and spiritual well-being.
As we begin this journey together, please
contact me if there are issues/topics you would like to have presented.
I'm looking forward to our time together!

The Topic:
Favorite Romantic Movies
Nothing is more enjoyable than relaxing with
a favorite romantic movie. I was curious to know what you favored when it came
to romantic movies. Also, did you think that what happens in romantic
movies can be experienced in real life. The results were both interesting
and enlightening.

Books & Literature
Develop Your Personal Quotation Library
The power of the written word can never be underestimated. I can not count
the times I have reached for a book of quotations from my bookshelf. I
find quotations, proverbs, and interesting sayings a marvelous balm no matter my
mood.
Know Thy Literature
To be familiar with many of the fine works in literature
absolutely enhances your life experience. The Modern Renaissance Woman knows
that building your knowledge of literature will not only make you more
interesting to others, but give you endless fodder for conversation.

The Modern Renaissance Woman takes advantage of technology to
enhance her quality of life. When it comes to continuing education or simple
pleasure, Books on Tape is the way to go.
Motivation
Prepare to Persevere
There is one truth that women must embrace. You have to
persevere if you want to shape your destiny. Two strategies you can use are
learning from others and "thinking outside the box."
Physical &
Intellectual Beauty
Finding Your Fashion
The challenge for today's Modern
Renaissance Woman is differentiating herself from the pack. It takes a
dash of creativity and modicum of determination to create your own unique
image. Apply the 7-Steps to Finding your Own Fashion to create a new you!
The
Beauty Within
The Modern Renaissance Woman recognizes that
we are much more than our external image. We have all heard the adage, "it’s
what’s inside that counts." This statement is absolutely true. In a
society that promotes youth, health, and surface beauty, it is easy to forget to
recognize the value of the beauty within.
The Lunchtime Walk
Whether working a desk job, driving here and there in sales, or
dashing off with the children on errands, we all eventually hit a
wall. A lunchtime walk is just the thing to get you running!
Perfume: Your Scent as a Woman
Perfume is one of those wonderful gifts of nature that women can
truly enjoy. There are so many scents and unique bottle shapes. Learn about the
history of perfume to enhance your experience of wearing fine fragrance.
Special Occasions
The Holidays & Traditions
No matter your culture and the
celebrations you embrace, the holidays are about tradition. Candy Canes,
lighting the Christmas Tree at the White House in Washington DC, and your
favorite movies. All traditions have their beginning.
Speaking Savvy!
The Modern Renaissance Woman knows
that possessing savvy speaking skills is what gives her the confidence to
approach any situation with assurance. These series of articles in the
Speaking Savvy category will absolutely take you over the
edge!

Comfortable Conversation
Carrying on a comfortable conversation with someone you know is a
snap. The challenge comes when you are speaking with a stranger. There are three
"Truths" when it comes to conversing comfortably with another
individual (or group for that matter). I share those secrets with you!
