Most of us are living lives that are fairly unbroken. We work, worship, play, and love. We manage households and try to squeeze in a teensy bit of time for self-care…fitness and recreation. If we’re very determined, we might even have a meaningful, purposeful pursuit on the horizon.
Perhaps like you, Diane Markins found herself becoming tired and bored going through life with sort of a beautiful, blurry focus. “Things were OK but I wanted more… to be a Woman in High Def.”
“Living in High Def means to take bold action and not accept anything less than God’s best. Evaluate! Is your love-life inspired or ho-hum? Be a strong, brave mom. Become an empowered friend. Boldly pursue passions and purpose. Live each moment with awareness and intention. Don’t miss a single opportunity God presents. I’ll share with Jory some ways to sharpen your focus and jump-start your high-def life.”

Jory, that was the most fun I’ve had in a while. The only thing lacking was a cup of coffee and a hug at the end. You’re a girlfriend to the masses! Thanks for the honor of being able to share my heart.
