After blogging here for over a year, I’ve come to a few conclusions: You can’t work with, hang with or converse much with Laura Biering without some riskiness rubbing off on you. Risk is integral to the larger picture of living a conscious life and that knowledge, for me at least, is what makes risking [...]
How We Spend Our Days: Adjusting My Social Media Balance
Dear Twitter: We’ve spent some good times together. And there are still times I need you. Times I want you. But you’re too demanding of my time, my energy. I’m leaving you – at least for a trial separation. Yes, there’s Facebook, but I’m thinking of leaving Facebook, too. I need more time for me. [...]
Taking a “Calgon” Moment
Oh no!! I missed my blog again last month and am a day late on this month’s entry!! To be honest, my head is spinning…..I just finished music directing a show, then packed up our house, moved to a much bigger one, am monitoring the renovation of our former kitchen and am now trying to [...]
Laura Gets Around!
There’s a new kid in town – more blogging!

Oh Geez…Did I Really Say “Come on over!”???
Ok, Laura – you want us to be blogging about risks we’re taking on purpose…well, honey – here you go. It’s Monday, right? And it’s 1pm and I’m still in my pajamas. (Don’t ask.) And I had a WONDERFUL appointment this morning with a client struggling to identify her target market and niche. In the [...]
Dawna’s Blog Risk #1
I am constantly amazed by the way Spirit/The Universe/God/Higher Power presents me with exactly what I want, but in ways I could never have predicted or imagined. I have recently revised my personal website (http://angelguided.com) and had made a commitment to begin my blog by the end of November. Knowing absolutely NOTHING about blogging (I [...]
One Thing
People ask me all the time what it takes to be a working musician. Most of the time what they really mean is what does it take to be a “star.” I generally have to explain the difference to them and hope they understand that, while, yes, I still have stars I am chasing, the [...]
Wisdom from Wayne: “100% Of The Shots You DON’T Take DON’T Go In.”
So many of the risks we take, we often don’t even think of as risks: driving, going down the stairs without holding onto the railing (w/two rambunctious dogs a foot), and even getting out of bed, as one of my Beautiful Blogging Babes pointed out earlier, can be a risk. But those don’t make for [...]
