About Dahmenah:
While attending college in the early nineties, Dahmenah began discovering her calling when she began working in the Human Services
field. Her first position was at a group home for boys in Lakeside, California. After finishing her degree in Business Administration, Dahmenah relocated to Los Angeles, California and began working for a group home for girls, ages 10 through 18. Seven years later, she would encounter her most challenging and rewarding work: assisting families as a Child and Family Specialist and later as a Wraparound Facilitator at Vista Del Mar Child and Family Services. Her work sent her into the community where she visited homes of families struggling to raise their children while fighting to keep their children in the home. During this time, she saw and felt the deep pain that inflicted so many women and she wondered if she could really make a difference. After spending fourteen years in the Human Services field, Dahmenah decided to change her approach to giving back to what she calls the, ” The Community of Women.” This new approach resulted in the creation of The Dating Revolution Workbook and the GURL KNOW company. Her personal mission is to harmonize, energize and feminize the “Community of Women” one woman at a time.
In her own life, she struggled for many years with low self esteem, bad romantic relationships, having dreams but not accomplishing any of them while the years just kept passing her by. The Workbook is the Journey that she herself took and it wasn’t until she became grounded in self love that her life started to changed. She wanted to share that Journey with other Women because she believes that all Women DESERVE to have EVERYTHING they want and more. But Women can not do better until they KNOW Better.

EcoChi – Designing the Human Experience with Author Debra Duneier
EcoChi is more than design, it is a revolution. It is a lifestyle shift that blends Classical Feng Shui, Green and Sustainable Living and Environmental Psychology… how people feel in their space. EcoChi teaches us that indoor space has a life…it breathes, it has bones, it contains and activates the 5 senses and at its best- the 6th sense. By bringing nature’s elements indoors in a whole new way, the EcoChi system attracts prosperity, harmony, health and happiness—while at the same time propagating environmental integrity.
Designing the Human Experience
Every space has a life of its own, and impacts us as we go about our lives. Our actions, energy and 
thoughts, as well as our physical well-being, are all profoundly influenced by our surroundings. The design, color scheme, textures, light, furnishings, accessories and placement of each item in our indoor environments impact our senses from moment to moment and shape how we feel about ourselves and others I created the EcoChi system which meticulously blends the powerful ancient and modern lessons of classical feng shui, green and sustainable living and environmental psychology to revolutionize how people feel when they are indoors. We spend about 99% of our time inside so it is easy to forget our connection to the outdoor world. Still, some of the happiest moments of our lives are spent outdoors. With EcoChi I bring nature’s elements into indoor spaces. The effects on the inhabitants are transformative and the added bonus is that it is also great for the planet.
Debra Duneier is the Founder and President of EcoChi, LLC, and Living Home by Debra LLC, a Feng Shui Master Practitioner, an accredited LEED® Green Associate, Certified Eco-Designer, and a New York State licensed real estate broker.

Experiencing God through The Golden Thread
When illness struck Catherine in 2005, her life turned a corner. Reluctantly, she exchanged her active existence as a budding Speaker and multifaceted Entrepreneur for a sedentary life.
Unwilling to give up her desire to make a difference in the world around her, Catherine made a decision. With a string of published articles behind her, she decided to pursue writing her first book. The years subsequent to 2005 deepened Catherine as she re-evaluted the validity of her belief in God, and rediscovered its staying power. Then in 2007, when cancer hit, her faith held up.
Convinced intimacy with God through Jesus Christ is the secret to true success and inner peace, Catherine shifted her focus and in 2008 began preparing for ministy.
Based out of South Central Alaska, Catherine and her husband, Jeff, are semi-retired with a part-time business. Along with sea kayaking and fishing, she pursues her biggest passion – helping others experience God.

Interesting Facts about Whole Grain
The Dietary Guidelines recommend choosing products with a whole grain listed as the first ingredient. Now every cereal with the white check has more whole grain than any other single ingredient, with the same great taste. You will see whole grain as the first ingredient on the ingredient list, indicating that whole grain is the first and most prevalent ingredient.
According to Dr. Travis Stork, emergency room physician and host of “The Doctors,” identifying whole grain products can be challenging. Shoppers can look for cues on the front of the box, but they need to read the ingredient list to know if they are getting products with whole grain as the first ingredient. Ingredient lists detail ingredients in order of prevalence, and if the words “whole” or “whole grain” are followed by a grain like wheat or oats, it means the food contains more whole grain than any other single ingredient. Here´s how to determine if your cereals have whole grain as a first ingredient:
- Start Early! The Dietary Guidelines recommend people get at least 48 grams of whole grain in their daily diets. Get a jump-start on the day´s nutrition by incorporating whole grain into your morning routine. For instance, when choosing cereal make sure whole grain is listed as the first ingredient. One easy choice is cereal with the white check, which have more whole grain than any other single ingredient.
- Make Simple Swaps. Choose whole grain versions of the foods you love. Great options include whole wheat pasta and whole wheat bread or even whole grain crackers. Also, try different types of whole grain. Use brown rice instead of white rice as a side dish at dinner or popcorn, which is a whole grain, for a snack.
- Don´t Judge a Food by Its Cover. The front of food packages provide good nutritional cues, but don´t forget to read the ingredients and check the nutrition label and side labels for additional health information. Cereals with the white check even include the amount of whole grain per serving on packaging.
Plus, check out Dr. Travis Stork in this brief video about the importance of whole grain and how to find whole grain.
To help make it easier to find whole grain products, General Mills developed “Fast Lane for Whole Grain,” an online educational game. Consumers can navigate virtual grocery store aisles and identify products that have whole grain as the first ingredient, with the option to enter a sweepstakes to win one of each of the 50 cereals with the white check.
In connection with healthier lifestyles, a diet rich in whole grain has been linked to healthier body weights, and it may help reduce the risk of heart disease and certain cancers.
Make a commitment to incorporate more whole grain into your family´s diets by starting their day with a bowl of cereal with the white check, including Cheerios®, Lucky Charms®, Cinnamon Toast Crunch®, Honey Nut Cheerios® and Total®.

What Makes a Happy Couple Happy?
Whether you’re in love and want to make it better, or are alone and want to get it right next time, relationship expert Kim Olver reveals the hidden truths behind happiness and satisfaction.
Secrets of Happy Couples is different from other books of the same subject because it is based on one basic truth—that all great relationships begin and end with yourself. Any relationship is the sum of its parts: individuals. This book explores how you, as an individual, can make the difference and create a happy and fulfilling relationship with your partner.
No other book has surveyed couples. Olver also interviewed prominent relationship experts and included their ideas in the book. She discusses the Relationship Cycle, beginning in the Alone Stage, moving to the Getting Together Stage, on to the Compatibility Stage, to the Maintenance Stage, and then back to the Alone Stage. At least 50% of us will find ourselves alone again due to death, divorce or personal decision.
