Nancy & me at The Freedom Tour launch party.

Nancy Levin is a bad-ass event producer. She once lived out of a carry-on suitcase for 73 days straight. The most she’s ever been on the road in a year is 213 days. Nancy is a road warrior, no doubt, but she also happens to be a poet and one of my dear friends.

When I first heard Nancy read one of her poems (the very same one she reads on the Glimpse TV episode below) before a keynote at a Hay House I Can Do It event I was awed to tears. I didn’t know this woman who I had known for several years had this kind of art in her. This is what Nancy represents to me:

Pealing back the layers.

Forgiving yourself.

Finding the gems in vulnerability.

Being deliciously, adorably, divinely human.

I’m so thrilled to share Nancy with you today on Glimpse TV. She’s hilarious. She’s freaking smart. She’s gorgeous. And she’s very, very real. Nancy’s book, Writing For My Life: Reclaiming Lost Pieces of Me is a book of poems, most of which were written as she was going through and healing through a divorce.

As Louise Hay says,

“Whether or not you are a poetry lover, you will be so glad you found this book. It’s liberating.”

Tune in for Nancy and my Glimpse TV episode where Nancy bares everything from packing tips to her soul. Enjoy!

Buy the book: Writing For My Life: Reclaiming Lost Pieces of Me

Last week I had the pleasure of enjoying an intimate chat with Cheryl Richardson while perched on her bed at the W Hotel in Union Square. We laughed. We sang. We talked a lot about dancing. I was inspired to interview her because of her newest book, which she wrote in collaboration with the legendary Louise Hay, You Can Create an Exceptional Life. The book follows a series of conversations between these two incredible women over a year and gives you many precious glimpses into both of their exceptional lives.

Cheryl basically put life coaching on the map and is a world-renowned speaker, author, and coach. My favorite of her books is The Art of Extreme Self-Care (pay special attention to the chapters “You’re So Sensitive” and “Let Me Disappoint You”.) Louise Hay is one of the pioneers of the personal growth industry, making waves with her first book You Can Heal Your Life, and going on to found a publishing company, Hay House, which is the top inspirational and self-help publishing house in the world. You can imagine what incredible wisdom ended up in You Can Create an Exceptional Life with this dynamic duo co-authoring it.

Go get your copy of the book and then tune in for my chat with Cheryl where you’ll learn about the triathlon of self-care, what’s difficult for Cheryl that she’s learned to accept about herself, how to give yourself the freedom to not have it together, the best source of wisdom that most people don’t take the time for, the surprising place where Cheryl got her best speaking training early in her career, and more. Plus, stay tuned until the end for a special duet between Cheryl and me that you won’t want to miss!

And then of course you’ll be so intrigued that you’ll read the winding, autobiographical tale of how Gabby went from being a drug, food, work, and relationship addicted twenty-something to becoming a Spirit Junkie.

GRAB YOUR COPY OF SPIRIT JUNKIE NOW

I first met Regena Thomashauer, also known as Mama Gena, when my mom sent me under cover to scope her out at her School of Womanly Arts.

I sat in her living room with thirty other women feeling like I was being let in on the biggest, best, most well-kept secret EVER: that the key to a woman’s life is pursuing her pleasure. I was twenty-two and I was so ecstatically grateful to get let in on this juicy morsel so early in life.

I’m doing back flips over how excited I am to introduce this dear friend, mentor, and way-shower to you today. She’s uncovering one of her greatest creations to date, Virtual Pleasure Boot Camp, and I wanted the brilliant women (and the few brave men) on my list to know about it!

I can honestly say that being a student at Mama Gena’s School of Womanly Arts is one of the top three reasons my life rocks my socks off in so many ways. Recently, my friend Jill Rogers, creator of The Seven Sacred Steps (more on this in a future Glimpse TV episode) called Regena a “woman whisperer.” She’s right. Regena could get the panties of any woman on the planet out of a wrinkle. I swear to you.

She’s my secret weapon for LOVING my life.

Last week Regena and I had a Skype date where we covered everything from the story of subterfuge in which my sister and I conspired to have her meet our mother to the gems for unwrinkling your panties hidden within Virtual Pleasure Boot Camp. Tune in for a good giggle and a little pleasure infusion.

I first met Nicole Daedone, founder of One Taste and author of Slow Sex: The Art and Craft of the Female Orgasm on the phone. Somehow I got offered a free coaching session with her and we spoke the Monday before I left New York City on The Freedom Tour. Within moments she had me feeling safe enough to tell her what was really going on and in and out of puddles of tears, she helped me craft the most beautiful intention for my first leg of my journey. Nicole’s ability to hear what is really going on even if you’re saying something else is profound. She’s glamorous, nurturing, quick-witted, and hilarious. And she’s laser focused on making women happy in order to make the world a better place.

You won’t want to miss this particularly juicy episode of Glimpse TV that I shot this past week in San Francisco with Nicole. If the fact that we’re talking about sex isn’t enough to entice you to watch, tune in to find out why I’m not scared of being “too big” anymore.

Sara Avant‘s power belies her elegance. A delicate, poised former dancer, Sara’s posture is enviable. And it’s that very same strong backbone that’s held her alignment, physical, emotional, and spiritual through a personal journey that began with a health crisis in her early twenties.

A former type A dancer, born and raised in Connecticut, then polished in the Ivy League, a scary diagnosis led Sara to leave the country for Thailand in her early twenties where she studied yoga, taught English, steeped herself in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, and Reiki, and learned to slow down and be in her body.

Sara’s first book, The Way of the Happy Woman: Living the Best Year of Your Life, will be out May 1st. Pre-order your copy now. I’m very proud to have written the preface and to be part of this beautiful piece of work that’s truly a road map for women to come home to themselves.

Sara and I got together in Boulder so we could share everything that’s cooking in Sara’s world. Tune in to to this episode of Glimpse TV find out the magical way we connected and why she’s sort of obsessed with the pelvis.

Enjoy!

I was in Maine. It was a beautiful September day and I was shopping in downtown Portland. I had recently made the decision to leave NYC and move to my home state. I was in Maine sniffing out real estate and telling my nearest and dearest the big news.

Stress is not a badge of courage and other wisdom from Crazy Sexy Diet: Kris Carr on Glimpse TV from Kate Moller on Vimeo.

Kris Carr is vibrancy embodied. She and I haven’t ever really hung out before, but the minute she walked into my apartment last Thursday to film Glimpse TV I felt an instant kinship. Her story is one of mega transformation, inspiring redemption, thinking outside the box, and pushing the envelope. In short, she’s a woman after my own heart BIG TIME.

Michelle and I at Hay House I Can Do It Event

I met the gorgeous and inspiring Michelle Phillips at the Hay House Movers & Shakers workshop in Boston in April of 2010. After one lunch we both felt like we had known each other for years. Michelle and I have since become buds and she’s also joined Team Northrup because her message is about inner beauty. Michelle has been a celebrity makeup artist for years and learned a lot about how women think and feel about themselves…and how sad a state many of them are in…during those years. She won the Movers & Shakers video contest and is launching her Hay House Radio show on Monday, January 17th at 12pm EST, The Beauty Blueprint! I’m so honored to be one of her first guest on the show on Monday so tune in to hear some pretty inspiring stories of women living life on their own terms and going after their dreams. Michelle’s book, The Beauty Blueprint, will also be out with Hay House in 2011.

On my recent trip to Tampa I got some time to hang out with Michelle and her family. We took some time to talk about Michelle’s amazing transformation from a history of losing herself in abuse and being on food stamps to feed her kids to her incredible life today as an author, coach, inspirational speaker, tv and radio personality, and glowing mother and wife. Michelle is quite a lady. Enjoy the episode!
