Life is the best party I have ever been to…

I have always considered myself a “Fairie Misfit”, using play as a vehicle to inspire the soul and ignite the spirit. It is my dream that women will move towards the light and discover ways to celebrate the feminine spirit. The creativity that we possess can be a powerful and magical force- perhaps it is time to “let her out.” Though our means are somewhat unconventional and seemingly frivolous, we are convinced that the Goddess Movement will leave you with a feeling of connectedness to your deeper self and to the flame that burns inside of you. Feel free to dance on the edges or plunge in completely. The world needs some rebalancing and the Goddess Movement has arrived to help bring about the celebration and healing that awaits us. Fairies can fly because they take themselves lightly, so lighten up and shine on- awaken the senses and relax the mind. Please join us as we discover new ways to “Unleash the Goddess within.”

Sue Sassmann,
Faerie Misfit

The realization that I can create an environment of work that embraces al l the things I love only came to me recently.  

As a cancer survivor (4 years) I have learned that life needs to be lived fully and with great verve at all times, thus the name of our company "Joie de Vivre"!  The "joy of life" as it translates, seems to be incredibly fitting for this, my next life project.  Ironically my battle with cancer was the catalyst that taught me how to live.

So now that I am really living I should thank my family, friends, the Sedona Method, Landmark Forum,  my therapist and the movie "What the Bleep do we know?"  All of these people and things have changed my life for the better.  I can now look at life from a different angle by always mindfully concentrating on the present.  I believe if you take care of the moments the years will take care of themselves.

My work as a web designer for the last 7 0r 8 years has been fulfilling though it does not feed  my soul the way I need it to be.  So my path has turned back to what I know and have studied--- that being functional apparel design.  I have always been fascinated by the psychology of clothing and the power of dress.  In college I researched the healing aspect of clothing to inspire and promote wellness in ill or injured patients.  Results were remarkable and I see that power working in many unharnessed manners all the time, everywhere!  My plan is to capture that power in  programs that can be used with specialized populations to promote a state of well-being.  Check out our latest "Healing Through Dress™" programs.

What it really boils down to is feeling good about yourself.  We are promoting that through various methods on this site.  Our methods will restore self-esteem, pamper the goddess within, and inspire the creation of your own terrific life.  And that is my wish for everyone, a terrific life!

Aloha,
Karen

And now, I'll do interpretive dance....
