As I've mentioned in the past few posts, my longtime friend Beth White launches a new web-streamed radio show this week, Living on Purpose.

Her stepping forward to take on this adventure is inspiring to me, and an example of how we sometimes have to push ourselves out of our comfort envelopes to try new ways of exploring our connections with the world. For Beth, it's perfect; as soon as I heard that she'd been approached to do the show, I shouted YES!! Because she is smart, and funny, and opinionated, and able to talk at length about anything -- in a good way!

And I love that she's kicking it off with a show about money, because that's such a real stumbling block for many folks. Her guests, Hallie Hawkins, JD, CCRR and Shay Prosser, CDFA, CCRR, "are experts in helping people take control of their financial lives" (from the show promo). Hallie and Shay have written a book, Get It Together, which you can enter to win here. Just leave a comment (it can be anon., as long as you put your initials in there)

Winner announced Thursday, March 15! The show runs March 15 at 12 noon EDT, 9 am Pacific, but will be available for replay on demand after that.

Yay, Beth, and Hallie, and Shay! And Brian too, who's the publisher of the book -- I knew him as a smart musician guy in high school, and now he's a journalism professor and a publisher.

Don't forget! You can leave a comment by this Wednesday, March 14, to be entered to win a practical book about money... see: this post for details!

Hello everyone!
Beth White, my friend since KINDERGARTEN, is about to launch a new radio show, Living on Purpose -- next week! (she's also a reiki master in NYC!)

Her very first guests will include another friend (from high school), Hallie Hawkins, a co-author of this book: Get it Together: The Real World Money Guide for Graduates, published by ANOTHER friend of ours from high school, Brian McDowell, and his Log Cabin Books publishing co.

SO -- to celebrate our hometown connections -- I've ordered a copy of the book to give away.

I will post again soon with radio show details, contest details, etc.... check back tomorrow!

I haven't read through the guidelines in detail, but this is worth looking at-- Tarcher art and writing contest (writing deadline coming up THIS WEEK -- MARCH 2!)
