This has been a slow and lazy year for me. So much has happened. I started out the year doing one Interview at a Day Spa I was interested in working at. It wasn’t one that I had been to before. I thought the Interview had gone quite well, yet it apparently didn’t as I didn’t get hired. I then started taking much needed Life Coaching classes with niches in Confidence & Self-Love. These were extensive and long class hours; maybe only 10-15 hours. *Laughing* When I was finished at the first of April, this is when I became extremely lazy and distracted by Bigo which is a social media entertainment app. I met several DJs over the last three years that I liked and admired. This year however I met a couple that I became close to. I learned about their lives and yet they didn’t see much interested in mine; especially not the fact that I could be their Manager as I love and adore music so much. I feel extremely head over heels with one that I met in August through another female DJ. I didn’t expect to develop feelings or even get so ‘close’. He had both extreme trust and none at all. *Bug eyes* So I followed and supported this DJ somewhat financially for 3 months. It was Wild & Crazy!!! I was majorly distracted my Dear readers. *Shaking my head*
So as far as my other relationships: my sister and I seemed to really communicate better over my mother’s health conditions. I feel like my sisters and my connection were really good. She and I still don’t see eye to eye on our Spiritual beliefs. I have a wider span of what I believe and her’s as well as other members of my family are extremely narrow and ‘fixed’. I am absolutely nothing like any of them in what I believe and know to be true. Same to be true of my Social media friends. I think a lot and want to talk a lot. No one seems to desire a real and true connection without listening and to understand and empathize or Support one another in the dreams we have.
So basically I spent thirty nine weeks since the beginning of April saying I would find Clients for my Life Coaching Business, ‘Divine Queens of Love’ (which also is for the men & Kings as well). I definitely have Big Goals to make a list of potential Clients I will call and start asking if they need my Services. Life Coaching is direly needed people. A lot of us are stuck in Jobs & positions that aren’t really what we are destined to do. For me it’s long over due that I do them! That’s why I said I would be a good Agent & assistant to Musicians/DJs. If I do that, I can’t get involved in the other aspects of their bad habits and choices. The entertainment Music & DJ World can be a mess! I have to separate and balance myself better to know where my Boundaries are.
Big Goals also to pay off Gym debt and get back to the Gym to do a certain exercise bike I used to do for my knees and to also start lifting free weights again!!! Can’t wait! Gotta make changes and better habit choices next year!!!

So, it’s been a Wild yet successful year for me, especially when it comes to my new Pocast called “Amy Ford’s Pocast”, which you can find on my YouTube Channel and Buzzsprout Hosting site. In my Podcast, I talk about Physical Health, Mental Health, Positivity, topics about relationships, and Self-Care. I also have done more Acryllic Painting with Words of Wisdom, posted on my Instagram page at amydivinewoman. I sell my Paintings for anywhere between $10-200 depending on the Size of the Canvas. I also continue to do Yoga at least once a month, yet this month I’ve done it almost four times. <Laughing> I’ve needed it!
My physical health didn’t start out all too well the beginning of this year as I had to quit my Retail Job which I loved because of a torn meniscus in my left knee. It took another 6 months to heal after that. Go figure, now my right knee has Chronic arthritis. I try to stay away from tomatoes which I know inflames the joints. I’ve also had to go through Pre-menopausal changes where either I’m sweating slightly, feel Pelvis pressure and extreme lower back pain. I’d rather get my cycle every month for the rest of my Life than go through womanly changes. I’ve learned that I need more estrogen, Progesterone, and thankfully I’m already on Serotonin to help with emotions. Eeks! m
My Goals for 2024 are to learn Graphic Design in order to design flyers, Pamplets, Posters, and perhaps even design Self-Help Modules/Guidebooks once I get into learning a bit more Life Coaching stuff. It takes a lot of knowledge to know what you want to write in Self-help Workbooks. I want to learn both Graphic Design self-teaching using YouTube Videos (hope I can find good ones) and also perhaps take Courses for Life Coaching through one of my many favorite Podcasters. I’ve learned so much from Jay Shetty, Mel Robbins, Lewis Howes, Gabrielle Bernstein, Ed Mylett, Maria Forleo, and Lisa Bileyu.
This year has taught me a lot about my Worth and that I am worth waaay more than minimum wage in Order to build the Life I desire. There is nothing wrong with knowing your worth and what you bring to the table. I’m on fire, determined, refreshed, and Renewed. I also plan on losing over 80 pounds in the next year. LET’S GET IT!

I seriously can’t believe it’s been almost two years. I have currently started a Podcast called “Amy Ford’s Podcast” and am using a Podcast Network, not sure if they have posted it on Amazon Music and Spotify yet. I also have posted YouTube Videos to my Amy G-money YouTube account. It’s interesting learning the ropes of how to correctly use all the equipment and formatting an SD card with either wav files or mp4 Video files; supposedly both won’t store on it. I am also learning to use the Podcast recorder. I have a variety of topics from Mental health, being an empath, learning good habits including exercising, doing Yoga, meditating, and taking up other hobbies as well as Journalling and Painting. I have topics such as Judgment Detox, developing good listening skills, being a Spiritual Goddess & Self-healer (lots of meditation and Spiritual guidance). In the last two years, I have attempted several Customer Service Jobs and really enjoyed one that I worked at for almost eight months until I have a meniscus tear in my left knee, not fun at all! I don’t think my knee will ever be the same and it’s taken a good six month to heal it partially. I still can’t go up and down the stairs the same. So anyhow, I really enjoyed my last Job. I also had to discontinue my Organizing Business as I knew it wouldn’t ever make money in the two years that I had it unless I had a team of people that worked with me. I could have advertised for other people to work with me, yet I would have had to increase my Prices for clients. Anyhow, lesson learned there.
I am extremely proud of myself for how far I’ve come. Other people may not agree, yet it’s taken listening to a lot of Great Podcasters, Life Coaches, Influences, authors, Licensed therapists; the list goes on, to get where I am today. I am proud of my growth. I am proud of the things I had to Let Go of that no longer served me. I honestly feel bad for people who still believe the old belief Systems. There’s nothing I can do about it to help the people I love to see the truth. Hopefully my voice can and will help others. I love to help and Serve people to see their true potential. I despise people who always look at the negative and worse possible scenarios. I despise people who say, “That won’t work!” to which I say, “F.U. to them”. I am a positive and optimistic human. It’s so sad when others don’t support your growth and outlook on becoming better. Those people want to stay small while still dreaming of making Big money and that’s all they may ever think of.
My mission and intention in Life is to get people to see their potential, talents, worth, etcetera. Oh, and I had almost thought of becoming a Life Coach, I that some of them make upwards of 10K and up a month. Eee! If only.
So I am going to try my hardest to come back and fill in on my Podcast Journey. I can’t wait to share of my Progress. I also will share my new Instagram account to my Podcast. Don’t forget to Love yourself, especially when you know no one else can love you better!!! <3

So, I have another Blog/Chapter about what Living the Dream may have looked like for me, yet I had to add a Part II, so to speak. Recently, I was working in a Place of Business and this gentleman walks in on a couple of occasions and shouts out, “Living the Dream?” in the form of a question. I almost died because it was partly insulting in a way and partly funny in a way. I wanted to ask him what his dream was and how he was really living it, and I also wanted to say, “Dude, don’t insult us!” I’m rolling my eyes. I have had all sorts of dreams and have unfortunately had to Shift. What do I mean by Shift? I mean that I had to take a break because I was burning out or I just did not feel like what I was pursuing was really my ‘niche’. I have a Professional Organizing Business currently and it isn’t succeeding because I have a couple other really passionate competitors. I have had two really awesome young women really try to motivate me and give me their energy and advice to Keep going and how to be noticed. These women were great!
So anyhow, I am shifting again and trying to focus more on my writing. I am not sure how good freelancing will go. I have read things that say it’s a tough way to make money. I don’t have a lot of experience writing professional essays or articles in newspapers and magazines, YET!!! I would have to come up with my Niche and new material constantly. One of my favorite authors, Dr. Sherrie Campbell recently told someone she did an Interview with, that she lives by Life hacks. This woman is brilliant and a Light to me. I would say I am partially jealous of people who come up with ideas and Clarity about how to put their knowledge out into the World and do it with subtlty. I know I can get here, I just have to read more. I am laughing at myself because I have always known this. I just have to give myself more credit and really take the time to express the facts and my voice, not just have the mushy stuff out there.
My next steps are to stick to my writing, and living with discipline to Learn, Research, and grow my knowledge towards my Passions of teaching Yoga and also doing more Graphic design. In all of my Research, I didn’t realize that it really is difficult to get and retain Customers. It’s a constant to stay persistent. To stay true to my Passion. To stay true to my intentions. I believe. YOU CAN TOO! And just another side note, being in motion will hurt and it will feel uncomfortable. I can do it and so can you!

Last year was Phenomenal for me. I know that is probably hard to believe given that America and the World had to be on pause for the Corona Virus Pandemic. It was a strange year, yet the most successful year for me since 2014 & 2016. I was able to create a Small business that may not be very lucrative since I have a lot of Competitors where I live. That’s OK, I am remaining hopeful. I have a small niche to help other people organize their homes and offices, cars, etcetera. I have a true passion for people to be able to breathe and live simply without a lot of stuff. I was told by someone close to me that people fill their lives up with possessions when they are not happy or if they are depressed. This is a true fact!!! I am so Extremely proud of myself. Ha, me proud? Yes, I even called a Lawyer to see how much it would cost to type up a Legal contract for my clients and this guy was going to charge me $600. Now, it doesn’t sound bad, especially if it protects me from a Client lawsuit. Yikes! Yet, I am not spending that much when I can write up my own and I have written my own up with the help of Resources I have discovered online and even my Graphic designer. Don’t tell her I said so, thank you Kimberly! Anyhow, this new Year, I am continuuing to take care of my health, exercise, eat right, Keep up with blogging, and finding the right Job that doesn’t get my attention deficit all in a bundle. I am not afraid to admit I am a slow worker. Once I get the hang of things, I can work faster and hopefully not sloppily. I am excited for this year. I hope to make new friendships, a good Client base. I hope that I can collaborate and even find people who can give me good Business advice without deterring me. Kindness pays people. We should all be supporting people to do well in their Small Business ventures and whatever other talents we have.
