Love At First Site
Some of you here know that I recently began a massive 'do over' by starting fresh in 2016 with a clean slate.
Yep. I wiped out all that I had created since joining in February 2015 (which included a website, pages, posts, comments and blog!) to follow my first love, a spiritual writing website I had created many years ago with absolutely no knowledge of SEO or keywords, and didn't use any of them at all.
From all the incredible training I have received at WA thus far, the one message I have heard over and over again in relation to success is that of helping others, but I wasn't quite sure how to take my particular brand of writing and skill set and use it in that regard.
If I was going to migrate this website over to WA, I knew I had to re-create it in a way that would help others become masterful at something or help them solve a problem, rather than just a showcase for my blog and other writing projects.
And here's where the demons entered...
All the self-doubt and questioning...all the fears that made me falter...all the voices that screamed, "Who are you to think that you can do this? What do you know about teaching others? No one is going to pay you a dime!"
Such is the lay of the land (or the heart) when we are about to step out of our comfort zone and stretch ourselves silly. (speaking of which, if you haven't read Jozeph's recent blog on this topic, I highly recommend it.)
So I took the plunge and spent weeks in the early morning stillness to re-build my website (because it wasn't a WordPress site) with a whole new direction and successfully migrated it here to WA yesterday.
Many thanks to the awesome tech support for their incredible patience with my techie ignorance and their amazingly quick responses to my questions. First class all the way.
The site is up and running. (posted on profile page) Just the basics. Now I have to take all that I've learned here at WA in the past year and use it to build, tweak, refine things, to produce some great products, and who knows what else. With WA, truly, the sky's the limit.
Mostly, I'm just so happy that I followed my heart and believed in love at first site!
Here's to new beginnings my friends.
Warmly,
Heather :-)

Hi Heather
Firstly welcome back to where you belong here at WA.
Your blogs of the past, present and I know future will become the essence of much inspiration and motivation for many.
Not just here at WA. But also for the many outside of WA who wish to go forward in life in the most positive of ways.
We all have many paths to take in life some are shared together some may need to leave those paths and re-direct their own, no matter how difficult they are.
As in the end, we all walk towards the same pathway towards the light, for we are all of the same light and as such all one with each other.
I have learnt so much from you in the past with all the blogs you have created previously both here and from your old site also included your E-Books.
Hopefully, you have kept many from there and may even re-introduce them with your revised site they are all worth bring back to life.
You are an awesome soul and I am (along I know) with many others privileged to share the presence with you.
Keep walking forward, you thoroughly deserve the best and much more I can only send my wishes to this and that you find the oneness you seek.
Take care, be well. Sending you Light and love from spirit.
Namaste

Thank you, Andre for your tremendous support. As the saying goes, we are all walking each other home...with that in mind, what a feeling to be surrounded by such friends here at WA. I have kept just about everything from my old site and I've posted it on my profile page. Looking forward to its new direction. There are many people here who have helped me in so many ways this past year and you are one of them my friend. So much of my new efforts here are in joyful gratitude for that. Hope all is well with you. Much love and light...and many, many blessings for all good things. Heather :-)
Thank you, Heather we are all here to help where we can.
Wishing you the most beautiful day regardless of the weather you are having.
Hope to hear more from you one day.
For now Good night from me time to rest and mix and communicate with spirit and give gratitude.
Blessings my friend Always :-)
Wonderful! You are an inspiration Heather. Very brave of you to tackle such a job. Love and hugs my friend. :-)
Thank you so much sista. It was a lot of tedious work, but a real labor of love. Now I want to come and relax in your new log home! Love & Blessings, Lorna. :-)
Wow - would that be the coolest thing ever! No invitation necessary...you are so welcome any time. Xxx
...do you like how I just invited myself?...such cheek! Now I just need to get that website earning more bucks and I'll be on your porch sharing a glass of wine with you to celebrate life! xoxo
I better get a move on then and get working 'cause I want to visit you in Ireland, I want to help Joseph build his art studio in Ecuador, I want to visit Byron Bay and see the Crystal Castle that Andre told me about...I want to go back and visit the Okavango Delta in Africa..sigh...wishing for at least another 50 years of vibrant health and prosperity! :-)
What wonderful inspiration! This year is a new beginning for me too, in a different way perhaps, but it's so nice to hear from others who are at that moment of change. I'm sure you're new path is going to be as successful as you hope:)
Thank you, Elizabeth. So glad you enjoyed. I wish you all good things with your new beginning! Warmly, Heather :-)
