Today, I am pleased to bring you "sunny side up mama" sponsor, Mary Kelting Photography and the Summer Soiree and Showcase event. Mary is a dear friend, wonderful mama and talented photographer who has captured my growing family, in several stages!
I have long admired Mary for the magic she weaves, bringing people together, specifically mama owned business owners. I am happy to share a bit of that magic here in the announcement of the next collaborative Summer Soiree and Showcase. Read on for details and a preview of a few businesses that will be attending. Consider this your very own, invitation to a great evening!
Lisa Story ~ The Conscious Health Coach
In the words of Lisa: “What is a Health Coach?” A Health Coach is a wellness guide and a supportive mentor. I work with my clients to help them create a happy, healthy, and well-balanced life in a way that is flexible, fun, and fulfilling. As a Health Coach, I offer a safe place for my clients to explore their health and wellness needs, set goals, and achieve a deeper understanding of the nutrition and lifestyle choices that work for them. Together we design a lifestyle plan that assists them in improving their overall sense of well-being, peace, energy, and radiant health. I work with clients privately and also offer a variety of classes and wellness activities each month through my practice.
Next Friday at the Summer Soiree in Los Osos, I will be giving away FREE 50-minute Health History Sessions to the first 15 people who stop by my table. I will also be giving away in the event raffle a free entry into one of my 3-hour Blending & Juicing for Radiant Health group classes. Stop by my table to pick up recipes, wellness tips and to sign up for a free 50 minute Health History Session. I would love to meet you!
Lisa has a B.S. Degree in Health Science and a M.A. Degree in Spiritual Psychology. Her life’s work for more than 20 years has been devoted to how we can best create a whole-istic life, radiant health, and vibrant wellness. She is a published author of the short story “A Dream Come True”, and her new book Conscious Nourishment of the Family is due out in September 2011. Lisa lives in Shell Beach, California with her husband, 20 year old daughter, and her 10 year old son.

Tina Crozier ~ Mirror Mirror
When designing the ‘Mirror Mirror’ line of dress-up wear, I was inspired to create clothing that would look similar to what a child would create using their scissors, construction paper, glitter and glue. In order to stimulate imaginative play, I keep the details limited … adding just enough to help jump-start their adventures.
To further enhance the child inspired designs, I use black stitching reminiscent of color book drawings. Edges will fray, showing evidence of the adventures your child has taken and the fun they had on the way.(Don’t worry, the edges are all secure!) Look for up-cycled fabrics in future designs. Creating is an adventurous journey for me as well!

With sincerity and humor, she hopes to influence other women to follow their passions while maintaining balance in their life. She simply wants women to "slow down, have a giggle and embrace each moment."

Kimberly Nico ~ Morro Bay Story Tree
In the words of Kimberly: I decided to sell books because I think they are beautiful - wonderful, uplifting stories, gorgeous, artful illustrations, and I love the informative end-notes at the back of many of the books. It is a fun "hobby" (both me and my husband are employed elsewhere) but we love to share these wonderful books with others and help charitable organizations raise money. We also like to feel the community involvement in local fairs and festival events.
I am a seller of Barefoot Books, but my business is separate from Barefoot, and I carry books that are not published by them as well. Barefoot's emphasis is on storytelling (which is a wonderful, rich resource) but I also wanted some environmental and science titles as well. I have also tried to start filling a void in open, welcoming religious and Catholic books for young readers, and I hand-pick those titles that I choose to carry. My non-Barefoot offerings are in-person only, not viewable or browsable online.
For the Soiree, I'll be bringing a nice selection of board books, singalongs, and environmental titles such as The Beeman. They will all be for sale on-site. I'll also be donating to the raffle.
