I love reading, writing, growing, and creating. I love blogging!
I have a masters degree in counseling psychology so personal development was a natural niche for me when I started.
I find that other bloggers inspire me, motivate me, encourage me and challenge me. They make me laugh and they make me cry.
Some have become my friends, confidants, mastermind, and business partners. On my list of awesome bloggers you'll find some of the best bloggers, a few brand new ones, and many that are in between.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Today I want to share with you personal development blogs, that along with a commitment to take action, can change your world!

2. The Daily Love Mastin Kipp offers a free e-multivitamin for your soul. He blends wisdom with style on his blog and delivers a daily email and Twitter messages for a fast paced lifestyle.
3. The Happy Seeker Christopher Foster is the oldest (79 years) newest blogger online. He offers advice on how to achieve happiness, inner peace, and stillness in your life. Chris and I have become good friends.
4. Powered by Intuition Angela Artemis will inspire you and motivate you to make your dreams a reality by developing and following your intuition. Angela did a reading for me last year after my mom passed away. Amazing!

Hi Tess–
Thanks for a great list. I’m a fan of several bloggers on your list, but have now discovered a few more to check out.
And since you said we could…
I thought I’d include a plug for for my own blog, The Manageable Life (http://themanageableilfe.com). My tag line is “Choose to live better.” I believe it’s the choices that we make, each and every day, that determine the kind of live we lead.
It seems that our approaches to living a “bold life” and a “manageable one” actually have a lot in common.
Here’s to living a bold, exciting, and yes–manageable life!
