Don't Hold Your Breath!

Each day, we wake up and perform on the stage of our lives.  In doing so, we develop the need to express the hidden thoughts conceived in our minds about our relationships.  This book gives you the opportunity to express yourself!  All of us reside in one of the four relationship phases: we are longing to be loved, we are in love, we have lost a love, or we realize that we must love ourselves before we can truly have the liberty to love someone else.  The term, "Don't Hold Your Breath", has its origin in the annual party I used to give for my girlfriends when I lived in New York.  We would eat the most fattening foods that we avoided all year long, share tiny morsels of gossip, and reveal the juiciest parts of our realities.  It was our time to lay down our degrees, let down our defenses, and just be open and honest with each other about our lives.  It was a time for defining our troubles, expressing our fears, soothing our wounds, and renewing our spirits.  As young women, we were diverse in our backgrounds and careers, however we shared a common link.  We held our breaths in hopes of “Mr. Right” and the subsequent relationship that would ensue.  Some of us were found by Mr. Right, and some of us found “Mr. Right-Now”, however we continued to hold onto our truth; “Boyfriends, lovers, and husbands come and go, but your girlfriends, they are forever!” ​​
