Life's happenings interfere with your ability to maintain your everyday responsibilities, which rapidly multiply when left untouched, create chaos and chisel away at your self-worth.

Whenever there's too much to do and not enough of you, your stress level increases along with the risks of damaging your health, relationships and happiness.

This includes happy interruptions like planning a wedding, adjusting to a new baby, preparing for holidays or special events, holding volunteer positions, furthering your education, accepting a promotion or relocating to another city.

Plus no one is exempt from the possibility that their life could instantly spin out of control. Jobs change or end, marriages fail, friendships fade away, children grow up and leave home (and come back), health deteriorates, death occurs, and accidents happen.

Even when you do not personally experience adversity, the quality of your life can still be affected by the ripple-effect from a family member, neighbor, or friend who is dealing with challenges.

Lois imparts life-changing perspectives, illustrated by real-life examples of how she learned to prioritize and make necessary adjustments to take care of her personal responsibilities - wife, mother, and home-maker and adapt to her new reality - living with a lesser ability imposed by a brain injury.

Participants learn systems and strategies they can use to temporarily adjust to unexpected circumstances or over-loaded schedules, so they can survive the "Business of Life" and "dare to feel happy in the midst of trying times."

Participants gain the ability to:

• Lower Their Standards without Raising Their Blood Pressure
• Short-Cut without Short-Changing
• Lift Their Spirits and Lighten Their Loads
• Separate WHO They Are from What They DO
• Accept Their Flaws and Imperfections
• Use Humor to Cope with Difficulties
• Find a Piece of Perfect in the Midst of Chaos
