Hi Tess
Your new site and look is OUTSTANDING! I feel like I just landed on the site of one of the Hay House people.
And all that you wrote here is so beautiful! I love, love, love it!

Tess, I am touched by what you have said on your page. Really strong, incredibly positive. I like the bold part. Great writing, too. I downloaded your book and am really excited. Thanks so much.
was looking for the interview with Anne Lamott and Elizabeth Gilbert and came upon your site – what a lucky find. Will be back.

Love ya girlfriend. You live Boldly in so many ways. Thank you for your shining example of having fun while reminding us of what is most important…oh yeah – to have FUN! xoxo Barb
Tess, I couldn’t find a contact form on your site, so can you email me please.
Hi Tess,
It makes me happy to read you…such a lively, ongoing and creative being…I love people like that, because I am not so far away as you, I know it, that’s why I am reading….
Keep going doing what you love doing, honouring your being and all the gifts that has been given to you…
I love when you write that you are ADHD, cause sometimes I do feel the same, always on the go, making things happen, quick minded, exhuberant…and you may know also that sometimes the pace seems going slow…
Anyway, so far, I am enjoying each moment that life is giving me, knowing it is meant to be so, for the right reason….
Be bold and beautiful Tess….
Love
Danielle
You are awesome!!! I had an awesome night of laughs and deep conversation from a truly gifted friend. It is always rewarding and a pleasure spending time with you……you are on my favorite list! Love ya, Randa
Tess,
What a great post! Thanks for these reminders, especially for those of us who consider ourselves enlightened and spiritually mature. How easy it is to backslide when the relatives arrive at dinner.
I had to pull my own coattail just last week at Thanksgiving. Whew! I had to heed my own advice.
This is hilarious! Particularly I forget when my son-in-laws arrive. I may be doing great but then my ego tempts me to “get in their back yard.” I’m getting better at not jumping right in;)
Hi Tess. I didn’t see a way to contact you on your blog, but I wanted to let you know that your commentluv plugin is no longer working because it needs to be updated. Feel free to delete this comment after you read it.
Reading this, I know now why I resonate so strongly with you.
How could I have forgotten? You are Brene Brown and all of us who desire a true, connected, worldchanging paradigm. Thank you, thank you, for being YOU and having the courage to share yourself with the world.
I love reading your blog. I am so grateful for my friendship with Roshelle. Without her I would never have read your work!
Tess, it was great talking to you last week! Thank you for sharing with us!
Hey Valerie,

I think society is suffering from information overload – so much, so fast and, unfortunately, so similar. I stumbled upon your blog and it was a breath of fresh air. I love your writing style and your dedication to help others live a bold and love-filled life. AWESOME! I can’t wait to read more. Your page is bookmarked and your e-book is about to be downloaded.

Hi Tess,
The bold life is really a bold move by you..It was accidentally that I stumbled upon your blog and have fallen in love ever since I stepped in.
Thank you for sharing such a daring thought and have a couple of questions pertaining to living a bold life..
1. I would want to be a full time trainer..What stops me from taking that bold move is because I am the bread winner of my family and I don’t have to capital to do the marketing..So could you please help me in taking a bold move..
Looking forward to hear from your end..For your kind information I am also a blogger and a behavioral training professional.
Sincerely,
Rafi

Tess,
Just wanted to thank you for your quick response to my query and for getting me started on my 30 Days to Bold program today!
Hi Tess
Just wanted to touch base and tell you that I recently purchased your ebook Flying by the seat of my soul and I’m thoroughly enjoying reading it and finding it very helpful. Thank you for you input into my life and for the encouragment to step out be BOLD! Much appreciated. xx
Thanks for telling me about your purchase. It’s has been an awesome help for so many. When we tell the stories from our heart we shine. I’m grateful.
Tess, you are a major cheerleader for the bold life, I love your words, your spirit and your wisdom. Diane Conway, author of What Would You Do If You Had No Fear?
Tess, I visited another site that you had written on and shared how much you were moved by a quote on an AIDS quilt some time ago. I am touched by the inspiration it gave you because that quote is very dear to my heart. Nearly 30 years ago, my family lost my uncle to AIDS, his name was Jeff. And in remembrance, family and friends, worked together to make a quilt using the quote “IT’S ALL ABOUT LOVE. TELL EVERYBODY”. We each chose a letter from the quote to create and sew on. You may also remember an envelop in the lower right corner that was filled with all the letters we wrote to him, sharing our best memories of his time with us. Although his time here on earth was cut short, he made a huge impact and managed to leave us with some very powerful final words that I will forever remember and be guided by.
Just wanted to say WOW! I’ve logged back on after a very long break, nurturing my family and myself through some hard times and have been meandering through a few old favourite sites, just quietly and gradually seeing who’s still at home while I do the hard work of recalibrating my blog and the remnants of my online life. And what a home! Your site’s exploded since I’ve been away – such glorious, thriving vibrancy! (When I was last here, it was the goldfish banner!) I’m so happy for you Tess; you’ve been working hard for years, steadily growing, evolving, sharing and helping and you deserve every bit of success you get! Wishing you all good things!!
