I am a recovering corporate junkie, having lived my life in a very left-brained manner until I lost my daughter in 2016 and step son in 2019. I started 'searching' and have found hope, love and even joy again, many thanks to the work of Suzanne Giesemann and other spiritual teachers like her. I now work for Suzanne in a consulting capacity (since late 2023), doing book publicity, helping with The Monthly Connection, whatever she needs honestly. It is my JOY to be part of an amazing team that ensures people in this world know they can live a life of joy and fulfillment, regardless of their earthly circumstances.
I also run a non-profit called KAREfarm, where our mission is 'to provide a healing space in nature for those experiencing loss. Check us out at karefarm.org

Etiquette for sending private messages: text, audio, or video?
Whether privately messaging someone via email, social media DM, or mobile text, which is better... writing, audio, or video? Here's my personal rule: 1. Writing is most respectful because it's the quickest for the other person to read. 2. The more of a relationship I have with someone, the more they'll likely be patient enough to listen to my audio / watch my video message to them... yet, if it's something I'm asking for / requesting, it's still more respectful to write if possible. 3. If recording audio/video, try to keep it under 1 minute 😅 and more about sharing emotion... not information, which can be shared via writing. 4. Except if I'm volunteering help to someone / doing them a favor, then audio/video longer is fine, but aim for no more than 3 minutes unless it's really super helpful to go longer 😄 5. Another exception -- if I'm responding to a client/student on a Q&A call and it's a video that will be watched by others, then of course, going longer (as you know I do!) than 3 minutes is normal 😂 What are your feelings when receiving a private message from someone you don't know super well? Do you prefer writing, audio, or video? Comment and let's discuss below. You're allowed to disagree with me 😊 (If you cannot see -- or write -- comments below, it means you're not logged in.)
What I love about this is that we (especially women) were taught in the corporate world not to show emotion...back when I was cutting my teeth in corporate in early 90s. Ridiculous! Love how George teaches to put emotion into your messages - shows your intention.
