I am doing it now for myself, happy with results, but it would be fun to be taken right out of my known grooves and challenged and surprized and delighted with someone elses better ideas
Be human. Be flawed. Learn and grow. And don't wait til you love yourself - act as if you love yourself right now and you will be amazed at the difference!
Stop searching for happiness. It will find you in time. Smile.
Personally, I would like an acupuncturist/ Chinese herbalist on call . . . I can't seem to shake this crap flu virus thing I got a few weeks ago and I'm SO over it. I wish I could find someone as qualified as my former acupuncturist!
also a single-lens reflex cammera with a 10.10 megapixedl imaging sensor. IIt's as automatic as you want/need and totally manual if that's your preference.. it's your option. It's about $800 and you can upgrade plus there's lots of accessories. I found this camera while 'scouting' a house and realized at the last minute that I'd forgotten my camera. The home owner offered to lend me her daughters camera..she was enrolled in a photography class and had saved all summer for this camera. I loved it because the wide angle lens allowed me to see more of the room. When her daughter forwarded the pics later that night, to my -email. I was really impressed and put it on my wish list. My husband surprised me with it for my birthday this year and I love it. A friend bought the upgrade version for her safari to Africa trip and her pics are phenomenal.
Life coach - also awesome :) I'd like to know how to prepare for the future.
And Martha Beck - just to keep me sane haha!
I would also throw in my talents as a personal chef. A full service personal trainer/ life coach specializing in parenting who can feed you really really yummy healthy food.
The expert I am needing is someone to help me put my plan into action. I have done this kind of thing for so long but never needed to get paid for it. Having a very challenging time with the transition from volunteer to professional.
, okay, maybe 5, and tell them to tell 2 friends and so on and so on. before you
know it, you're marketing. Also get anybody you've done this for to write you a
recommendation, make copies and put them where your customer would be,
daycare, gyms, grocery stores. Both cost next to nothing and help build confidence
and a loyal customer book. If you're certified by any national org. look into their
resources too.
I'd like expert, tailored advice on how my husband and I can get through this recession with minimal financial loss and maximal personal growth.
Find a diabetic counselor, most got into it because they were diagnosed themselves so
they are usually compassionate about the ups and downs of the disease.
Realize that no matter if you eat the same thing at the same time everyday your sugars
are going to fluctuate. Just take in the information with out beating yourself up about it.
Danielle, With regards to the camera, have you checked out the Nikon D40? I have one and love it--very easy to use and FAST (no more pictures of the back of my son's head!)

So I would like the advice (& services) of a master gardener and landscaper.
A fashion consultant to help me buy the perfect clothes for my frame & that would reflect my personality.
A life coach to help me navigate life's challenges~ better than I do on my own.
A gardener to create a lush, organic garden full of organic, healthy, vibrant foods!
The Canon Powershot G9 camera is a fantastic camera with manual & auto. functions...it takes outstanding photos and is 12 MP, allowing you resolution to blow up pics as big as you like. I just finished a photo program and my friend bought the G9. Her photos were equal to, if not better than our professional-grade fancy cameras. Its compact, unobtrusive, and cool black. The LCD screen is huge and it has most of the major functions of a pro camera. I'm excited about it because i just recommended it to my mom who can now OWN taking awesome photos! A link below:

Saying sorry to others, clearing up the mess.
I regard mistakes as invitations to learn. Your mistakes/dumb things will have a personal style to them and tend to be repeated until the lesson is learned. Then the universe's next lesson comes into view over the horizon.
Dance with the chaos
And I would love for someone to give me expert advice on how to manage my business to take it from a system of "let me try this new thing and see how it goes" to a "this is the simplest, most efficient way to get where you need to go." Yeah, that would be awesome! I like hand holding!!! :)
How do you find trusted experts if you do not have any in your extended social networks? If you have any tips, let me know.
Be gorgeous!

I'd like an angel on one shoulder reminding me to breathe & appreciate the moment when I got frustrated at the mundane things in life (finding kids' homework, laundry etc).
I'd like a devil on the other shoulder reminding me to be sexy & sensual.
More immediately, I'm going up to Montreal (from NYC) solo this weekend for work and have never been before. I'd love to hear from a local expert who could recommend neighborhoods to explore, shops to check out and restaurants to visit! (I have to admit, this is my first trip alone to a city I've never been to--especially one that might test my high school French--and I'm a wee bit nervous...and excited!)
The thought of someone being expert at anything to do with me is like throwing power out the window...
For myself, I'd love to have an on-call, international etiquette advisor. I travel a lot so I'm fairly savvy, but sometimes I'm pretty sure I've put my foot in it without knowing why.

A great group of senior leaders who are passionate about the incredible value adding women to their boards brings.
I'd love IT help that was a phone call away, or to find someone willing to come by my house for 30 minutes to an hour once in a while just to tune things up or give a mini tutorial. This would allow me to concentrate and speed through the work at hand instead of spending time trying to figure out something that just isn't second nature or interesting to me. More confidence, trust and efficiency on the computer would feel so much more peaceful and powerful.
Carrie, I have found lots of good info on your questions from the Slow Foods Movement...also one of my fave cookbooks ever is The Meat Club....it's based on the movie the Fight Club but very girly and covers ever type of meat you can imagine. Think old school pot roasts, roasted chickens etc. Sooo funny too.
As pour moi? I need tech help with my Mac and my blog. It takes me hours to do simple things and it drives me completely bonkers. I dream of a couple of hours of tech support, adding widgets, getting Google ads to work and making my Mac keyboard english again!

Right now... I know web designers but am winging my own site with my helpful but amateur dh due to lack of $. Maybe I should figure out a barter...

I'm not a proper naturopathic, the only advice I can give is based on my own experience. Look into Ayurvedic nutritional counseling, what you digest tremendously affects how you feel. Evenly spaced meals, less sugar/caffeine, daily meditation along with hands on blessings has helped me relinquish anxiety in my life. good luck!
Like at least one other person here I recommend the Canon Digital Rebel series of cameras. I have one from a few years ago and I've never been disappointed with pictures. As far as shots without the tinny flash look... I just invested $14 in a flash diffuser which is basically a piece of foggy plastic that will flip over your flash -- Takes away the harshness of the flash but still allows great pictures in low light conditions. You can also invest in some inexpensive lenses that allow more light to come in without using a flash. I've found the folks at Ritz/Kitz camera to be extremely helpful :) Good luck!
