Celebrate the holidays -- Lifestyle CEO Style!

In this the Premier Issue of our magazine, we focus not on the hustle, bustle and commercialism so prevalent this time of year, but on the celebration of the simple things that fill our lives with so much joy. To help us do this, I have gathered a team of women whose life experiences and desire to serve others make them truly special. Each one holds a special place in my heart and since I'm not one to keep a good thing all to myself, it gives me great pleasure to give them an opportunity to bless you as well.

I am pleased to present the contributors to the Lifestyle CEO Online Magazine!

• Charlon Bobo is an extraordinary virtual office assistant who I know from my earliest days of soap making and entrepreneurship. Her winning personality shines through in her inspirational writings as you will see in her article informing us of interesting ways to make a home office a pleasant place to build a corporate ladder.
• Terri Bynoe is a wife, mother of 3 boys and most importantly to me personally, a treasured friend and confidant from my college years. (We graduated last year ...) Her ability to understand people is apparent as she reminds us to seek out genuine holiday cheer for our families.
• Susan Linyear, wife and mother of twin boys, can make a rotten mushroom taste good. Her kind heart is reflected in the meals she prepares for her family and for others through her personal chef business. Her Bacon Corn Chowder is a quick and delicious side dish the whole family will love.
• Carrie Myers Smith is a wife, author and licensed wellness coach who home schools her 4 sons as she helps women maximize their potential for health and wellness. She shares how focusing on the positive can turn "Bah-Humbug" into "Fa-La-La." 
• Marcia Davis Taylor is a certified self-care consultant whose experiences as a wife, mom of 3 boys and social worker have uniquely equipped her to empower us to celebrate ourselves! 
• Yours Truly rounds out the pack, and I'm doing my best to keep up with these ladies!

Lifestyle CEO To Know Cinnamon Bowser is the perfect woman to feature in our Premier Issue. The story of how Cinnamon built a business around a common need is inspiring and makes us all say, "Why didn't I think of that?"

I hope you enjoy our Premier Issue! Please email me your feedback and comments as next month, I will add a Letter To the Editor department. We all want to hear from you!

And don't forget to join me and all of these women on Monday, December 5 at 1:00pm EST on GlobalTalkRadio.com for the Lifestyle CEO Internet Radio Show!
