IGNITE MY LIFE! Book Club and Accountability



 Remember how excited you were when you were a kid and you thought about the great things you'd do when you were a grown up? "I'm going to help all the hungry
people" or "I'm going to save homeless pets" or even "I'm going to
eat ice cream every day!"  Do you still have that
enthusiasm, that commitment to fulfilling your dreams, your passions?  Do you wish you had the commitment and determination to do all the things you dreamed you would?



 Do you even remember what they are??

 Let's ignite the twin realms of Passion and Purpose, for
each fuels the other.  Without Passion, Purpose will never
be fulfilled. Without Purpose, Passion runs amok or lies dormant. 
Together, we will activate Purpose and Passion using these simple
tools: 

* Breath
