- About my Business:
- I'm in the "business" of serving those who serve which is why I founded Wellness for Warriors (W4W) meet up group. W4W offers a unique way for those in the business community to come together and offer wellness support, education and resources for the benefit of our community and especially for those currently serving in the US military, veterans and their families. Actually, W4W is not my "business" it is my passion and my duty.
My "day job: of choice is that I'm a marketing consultant for Natural Awakenings Magazine, a healthy living, healthy planet publication that has over 70,000 readers and is distributed to over 700 locations throughout the Triangle area.
- About Me:
- Wellness for Warriors is my personal effort to give back to the community.
My family and I were "guided" to relocate here from the Boston area during a vacation summer of 2008. I arrived Oct 2008, our 15 yr old joined me January 09 and hubby arrived just last week, one year to the day of my arrival. He's in the process of landing a job that has to do with environmental management.
Moving here was a lifestyle wellness choice for our family and we have not looked back. It seems as though everyone has moved here from somewhere else and doing whatever it takes to make it work. I find that very empowering and motivating.
I enjoy sunshine, walking, reading, painting, Yoga, mediation and hanging out with high frequency, high energy, positive people. I adore my teenage son and devoted husband of 18 years. I've have an extensive business background and entrepreneurial spirit that is ready to soar once again.

Who is serving who when it comes to military families in our midst?
This past Sunday evening over 125 people come together at Carmen's Cuban Cafe in Morrisville for a Salsa for Soldiers event that netted almost $700 in donations to benefit the USO-NC! Bravo everyone!
This event was coordinated through Wellness for Warriors (W4W) meetup group whose main mission is to help serve those who serve and that statement can get very interesting at times.
While I was delighted to know that several of the smiling faces dancing in the crowd were that of veterans, I also k… Continue

Anyone catch the NC State Football game LIVE this weekend?? Mr. Richard Dillman USN 1951-55 sure did!
On the field or in the field - Our heroes have us covered. Amazing grace comes to mind. . . .
Subject: NC State's Football Game was Military Appreciation Day
Diane: Had to share this with someone that would appreciate it. The NCSU football game at 6:00 this past Sat. was dedicated to Military Appreciation and started with two skydivers from Ft. Bragg coming in double stacked from 10,000 ft. and making a perfect heads up landing on the football field.

Wellness for Warriors Triangle is bringing peace to our little corner of the world. . .
Wellness for Warriors had another magical wellness event on Monday night. I want to make sure to publicly thank our speaker, Leslie Flowers and Clear Horizons natural healing center for hosting us and especially all of you who attended. We not only raised awareness about our innate abilities to create our own realities with positive thoughts, we also raised awareness and $160 to benefit the USO-NC! When I relocated here I had no intention to start another military support group. Well, som… Continue

Our passion is to serve those who serve and magical things are happening...
I can't help but share this heart warming, passion driven, soul inspired, life confirming story. Suffice it to say that the Wellness for Warrior event on May 26th was a huge success. The event was educational, inspiring, motivation, interactive and just plain magical. Mike Young and John Parrish are not only highly respected financial coaches, they are military hero's. So is CJ Scarlet who came as a guest and will be back to do a wonderful wellness event in October. The wisdom, energy level and… Continue

Memorial Day is not quite over - not in my lifetime . . .
Everyday is Memorial Day to me. Every night before I sleep and every morning before I rise, I silently thank our our military families for the sacrifices they're making and I pray for peace.
Often times, I catch myself fill will appreciation when I see a soldier in uniform, notice a yellow ribbon, or a ball cap with a military insignia, see a peace sign bumper sticker, hear a helicopter flying low. I admittedly well up with pride anytime during the pledge of allegiance and always sing along whe… Continue
