Hello everybody!
I’m in Arizona for now. We arrived in the middle of May (from Italy) and we’re excited to be here! It’s great to see family, and it’s great to have so much sunshine. And it’s great to have access to so many awesome supplements and products and easy online ordering. :)
Moving My Ass! Walking or Swimming?
When we first arrived, I got into a great routine of walking every morning with earbuds and listening to my Coffee Self-Talk scripts I recorded on MP3.
But it quickly became too hot in the desert to do that, so I switched to walking in the evening, once the sun is down, and the temperature drops to a mere 100 degrees F.

And so for the morning, I jumped into my favorite summer exercise activity, which is swimming. But when I switched to swimming, I was not able to listen to my Coffee Self-Talk because I was in the pool.
But I got to thinking…
I don’t usually swim with my head under the water, and I wondered if I could find some water proof earbuds that were wireless.

Seek and ya find.
I found this amazing pair of wireless earbuds that are water resistant. *Note they are not waterproof for going underwater, but they’re water resistant so if I keep my head above the water and there’s a little splash here and there, no big deal.
And? They do a great job. Now I’m swimming every morning and getting my second daily does of Coffee Self-Talk (first dose is with my coffee before my swim!). Where there’s a will there’s a way.
Writing
As usual, I am writing every day. I absolutely love being a writer. Currently, I’m working on my non-fiction projects with the Coffee Self-Talk family but there are some fiction stories percolating in the back of my head.

Announcement!
I have four books coming this summer in the Coffee Self-Talk family: The Coffee Self-Talk Daily Reader, The Coffee Self-Talk Guided Journal (the current journal is blank), Pillow Self-Talk (for your evening routine), and…
Coffee Self-Talk for Teen Girls. (Boys to follow.) I’ve been getting requests for taking my book Coffee Self-Talk and making it for kids. I will have a bigger announcement for this closer to the publishing date.
Interviews About Coffee Self-Talk
I have done a number of interviews about Coffee Self-Talk and one of them is available to listen to now. I had a most lovely conversation with the host, Margaux Joy, of Live Your Music radio. You can listen here.
New Collagen
I also got my hands on some new collagen that I was excited to try by CB. Dr. Cate convinced me a collagen supplement was worth it… for skin, joints, etc. The fascinating thing about this collagen is it comes from five different sources and the people who use it, love it. It’s the only collagen so far that Dr. Cate endorses and I am a fan of Dr. Cate. Ergo, I bought the collagen.
The unflavored taste like most other collagen powders which is not awesome but easily mixes with other things. The chocolate is absolutely delicious though.

When I bought the collagen, the company kindly sent me samples of their vanilla and their strawberry-lemonade flavor, and both of those were good too. So I am a fan of their products, and I am subscribing and saving on a monthly basis with them.

So that’s it. I’m drinking a new collagen, I’m writing books like crazy and loving every single second of it. I’m in Arizona for now. That’s my update!
I’m sending love and energy to you reading this, imagining you’re having an awesome summer, too.
OH!~ Check out my romance novels if you want extra heat for your summer. :) They’re a great pool read to let your mind escape to some sexy romance. I write them under my pen name, Brisa Starr.
