In the summer of 2005, I decided to go on a 10-day trip to Nevada to connect with some friends for a grand art festival. I was feeling up for an adventure and eager to get away. With my business under one year old at the time, thanks to also being a “landlordess,” I managed to squeak by on the combined monthly income. From a bookkeeping perspective, going on this trip was a bad idea. In addition to the expense of the trip itself, I was running the risk of halting momentum due to no internet or phone access for the full ten days. All logic said no – yet my intuition said yes.
On faith, I chose intuition as I have done so many times in my life. What transpired over those 10 days in the Nevada desert was transformative, joyful, challenging, cathartic, and most of all, profoundly HEART-OPENING. A sense of expansiveness, timelessness, and present-moment focus gently pervaded my experience with such depth, that the inevitable end of the festival and return home wasn’t given any thought or concern. I was just blissfully “in the experience”. What a gift!
When the time came to return home, I did so happily, savoring the heart-space that I was in. However, once home, things changed quickly and dramatically. I found myself crying in parking lots simply because they were parking lots, claustrophobic in cars and even my own living room, acutely aware of the sadness of strangers passing by, and in attempts to describe the experience to friends, I was using phrases like “I feel suffocated,” “I’ve expanded,” and “I no longer fit my life.” When weeks passed and these symptoms showed no signs of letting up, I knew something had to change, and I all but decided to sell my house and buy a one-way ticket anywhere to begin a nomadic lifestyle. I professed angrily, “There just aren’t enough places to dream here!” Friends who had been trying to persuade me to stay, reluctantly surrendered to my deep need for change and instead offered to help me pack. I had narrowed my options down to two choices, fight or flight…either create what I longed for, or travel the world looking for it.
Alas, The Dream Party™ was born over the next 48 hours, thankfully faster than I could pack! It came to me in chunks. I was awakened in the night by “ideas” and was at the kitchen table writing them down within minutes. The Party was “an excuse for me to stay,” I said. While I suspected that others felt a need for such an event, I was admittedly doing it because I needed it. My efforts paid off when over 100 people attended the first Dream Party™, and thank you’s and testimonials were received.
As you move forward toward your dreams, consider that you can’t know whether your next step will be big or small, or even a “step” at all in terms of where you’re heading. The organic creation of this trademark event has given me the opportunity to reach a national audience of dreamers. I never could have predicted that going on an out-of-budget vacation would prove to be a giant step in propelling my business forward! What’s your next inspired action?
May all your dreams come true,

Tara's first book...
Are You Pregnant With a Dream?
Birthing a Dream: Conception to Age 5
Illustrated by: Liz Halloran
IN OTHER JOURNALISTIC NEWS...
This month in Spirit Side Magazine, Tara's article "4 Steps to Awakening Your Dreams" is highlighted! Spirit Side Magazine is hosted monthly by Body Mind Spirit Expo as a means of exploring the frontiers of new thought.
I WORK FOR YOUR BEST SELF
Coaching is such a powerful tool, and I am so proud to be part of such a phenomenal industry.
With a new client, I always recommend that they make a minimum commitment of three months. The reason for this is two-fold: (1) in doing so they are making a commitment to themselves, and (2) 90 days is generally enough time for significant life changes to take place. However, based on individual pace and ambition, creating the life of your dreams could take 2 months, 2 years, 20 years, or 20 lifetimes. Coaching is a powerful tool that can "get you there" more quickly than you otherwise would. I have seen powerful things take place for my clients, sometimes in as little as 2 sessions. This is a tribute to them taking full advantage of the coaching relationship and all it has to offer.
I am a devoted advocate for your Best Self - the self that could only create and attract your dream life...nothing less. I stand strongly for you at your best, brightest, fullest expression.
You cannot convince me that you:
* Are powerless to your situation
* Can't do what you dream of most deeply
* Don't have everything you need - right now
Consider that your thoughts and behaviors, to date, have created the life you have now. Therefore, if you want (any part of) your life to change, your thoughts and behaviors have to change with it. You have to DO things and THINK things in new ways. As your coach, I will gently challenge you to do these things and offer you unwavering support along your journey. I offer tools, goal setting assistance, milestone celebration, skilled listening, personal challenges, and guidance to help move you forward on your journey to create the life you've dreamed of.
I have been both honored and blessed to have the privilege of supporting and witnessing my clients' journeys towards creating extraordinary lives for themselves. And, a natural byproduct of their joy and success is that it organically spills over into the lives of those around them! Funny how that works, isn't it?
If you'd like to learn more about how I can work for your Best Self, please call or email to arrange for a complimentary session. Since coaching is generally done by telephone, this opportunity is available to you regardless of where you live. Read client testimonials: http://createyourlifeinc.com/testimonials_lc.htm

On Being a Dream Realization Coach
On Being a Dream Realization Coach
by, Tara Gross-Steeves
Since giving birth to my business, I've introduced myself by a range of titles to include: Life Coach, Transition Coach, Small Business Coach, Personal Development Coach, Professional Development Coach, and Personal & Professional Development Coach (that one's a mouthful!). Over time, I've come to identify myself by the title "Dream Realization Coach", which I know to be the most accurate descriptive for what I do.
Inevitably, whether a client has hired me to help them through a challenging transition, start or build a business, take better care of themselves, or achieve personal or professional goals, I eventually find myself asking: What is your dream? What is the burning desire within you? What's the crazy dream of your fearless soul? What have you always wanted to do but have never done? If you had all the love and money in the world, what would you do with your life? What do you really want, more than anything?
I've found that taking on this title elicits some interesting responses from others. Some find it frivolous and unrealistic to dream and have projected that they wonder how I manage to attract clients when people are so busy living their life, let alone their dreams. Sometimes, in these instances, I'll inquire about how, if one has yet to identify their dream, could they possibly know whether or not it's realistic? Often, naming something "unrealistic" is a way of communicating deep self-doubt.
Some people are intrigued but confess that they don't think they have any dreams. For those who have dismissed, repressed, or are immobilized by the fear that their dreams- are-unachievable-so-why-dream-them-to-begin-with, I must admit I wonder at times if they are secretly willing to explore their dreams, so long as it can be filed under Business Coaching, or any of my other former, more practical-sounding titles instead. Is disguised permission what they are looking for?
Some people, of course, get very excited and immediately launch into sharing their dreams with unabashed enthusiasm. I delight in these instances so completely. Most often these are the people who have decided already to go for it - and are overflowing with excitement about the way things are magically falling into place for them and their dream. They can see it, taste it, feel it - and they know that if they're going to put their energy into something, it might as well be something they are buzzing about!
Coaching can help you create the life of your dreams in rapid and powerful ways. Remember, everyone starts out fearing that their dream is out of reach, too big, too small, unachievable, or even silly, but too many falsely conclude that it must remain a dream. I hold the deep belief that it costs far more (in every way) NOT to pursue your dreams than it does to go for it. Are you willing to risk the price of always wondering what you could have done? It is my honor, privilege, and calling to serve you and your dreams!

Alison's Dream Party™ Story
Alison's Dream Party™ Story
In May of 2006, my friend Rita told me about a 'Dream Party.' She emailed me the flyer, and I knew I had to attend.
I've always been a person with A LOT of dreams but was unsure how to manifest them, and which ones to focus my energy on. At that time, I had reached a point in my life where I was feeling ready to begin manifesting my dreams into reality. When I went to the Dream Party in May 2006, I was doing temporary work at a law firm, while holding in my heart the dream of creating my own business through combining my artistic skills with my work experience as a care-giver to children and elders. I chose to wear a costume to the party, and I called myself 'an artist who makes a difference in the world.'
At the Dream Party I had the opportunity to speak with members of the Dream Team, and I began to see that it REALLY is possible to be an artist and a leader in the community. I left the party INSPIRED, with lots of great business contacts, and with a commitment to being coached by Tara Gross for the next 3 months.
In the three-month period that followed, I came to OWN my dream of being self-employed and wildly creative in my career. Tara's coaching put me into action: I signed up for a Business Plan Writing Class, 3 Computer Classes, and received invaluable coaching on how to negotiate client terms with integrity and grace. Most importantly I was given the support to take action towards my dreams.
In the past year I have brought 30 unique and creative programs to over 200 kids and adults in various communities in the State of Rhode Island. I am clear that the work I do in the world really matters, makes a difference for people, and, I am having so much FUN doing it!!!!
If you want to connect with the dreams that inspire you and touch your heart, I highly recommend attending The Dream Party, and then signing up with Tara as your coach!!!!
For more information about creative and unique programs and spaces for your community please contact Ali LeBrun at alisonhlebrun@yahoo.com
Thank you Alison, and all the dreamers, that inspire and challenge me to do this joyful work!
Hope to see you all next week!

Common Questions About The Dream Party™
The Dream Party™
Thursday, May 17, 2007, 6:30 p.m.
The Hi-Hat at Davol Square
Providence, RI
$30 pre-reg, $40 at the door
Pre-register & Save!
--- Is The Dream Party™ just for women?
Absolutely not! Dreaming is for everyone, and so is The Dream Party™! (21+)
--- How do I get tickets?
Tickets are available on-line through Art Tix for $30/ ticket. Tickets will also be available at the door. The door price is $40. By pre-registering through Art Tix, you not only save money, but you also help us get a close-to-accurate head count so we can best serve you on May 17.
--- Do I have to dress up?
Dressing the part of your "future self" is encouraged! Though not required, why not share your dream with others through props and creative outfits? It's fun...it's a great conversation opener...and, it's an opportunity to embody and attract your dreams now.
If, for example, in 2012 you want...
To be a restaurant owner, wear a chef's cap.
To be retired and golf everyday, dress like a golfer.
To own a beach house, wear a sunhat, sunglasses, and sandals.
To be a marathon runner, pin a number to your running clothes.
To be a philanthropist, dress like one, (and bring your checkbook!)
To be an actor, dress the part of your dream role.
--- What's the role of The Dream Team?
The Dream Team is a special team of experts from a variety of fields that will be on-site and available for free consultation at the Dream Party™. They are every-day Dream Weavers, right here in Rhode Island!
Meet the Dream Team http://createyourlifeinc.com/dream_team.html
--- What do you mean by "Should & Impossible are not invited"?
Create Your Life! stands for your dreams and passions, not your "shoulds". We know that language is a powerful creator of your experience. 'Should' and 'Impossible' are disempowering words that bolster any obstacles that might be standing between you and your dreams. At the Dream Party™ you will have the opportunity to, literally, shred your 'Shoulds' and 'Impossibles.' Doing so will move you closer to your dreams for the future, AND you'll receive a special gift!
--- What feedback did you get about last year's Party?
"Compared to traditional networking events, the 2011 Party was such a treat! From the premise to the décor, to the agenda, to the mix of attendees - there was nothing stale about this event. It really got you focused on one simple and very personal thing: 'What's Your Dream?' Finally, a networking event that isn't about your business' purpose or sales goals, but about individuals - their desires and aspirations. What a delightful and refreshing change!"
~ Michelle Girasole, co-founder of The Sassy Ladies, a Dream Party™ sponsor
Invite others, and make it a night out with friends, family, or colleagues! Your dreams will thank you.
Do you have questions about the Dream Party that are not answered here?
Feel free to contact me by phone or email, and I'll be happy to help!

Dressing the part of your "future self" is encouraged! Though not required, why not share your dream with others through props and creative outfits? It's fun...it's a great conversation opener...and, it's an opportunity to embody and attract your dreams now.
If, for example, in 2012 you want...
To be a restaurant owner, wear a chef's cap.
To be retired and golf everyday, dress like a golfer.
To own a beach house, wear a sunhat, sunglasses, and sandals.
To be a marathon runner, pin a number to your running clothes.
To be a philanthropist, dress like one, (and bring your checkbook!)
To be an actor, dress the part of your dream role.
--- What's the role of The Dream Team?
The Dream Team is a special team of experts from a variety of fields that will be on-site and available for free consultation at the Dream Party™. They are every-day Dream Weavers, right here in Rhode Island!
Meet the Dream Team http://createyourlifeinc.com/dream_team.html
--- What do you mean by "Should & Impossible are not invited"?
Create Your Life! stands for your dreams and passions, not your "shoulds". We know that language is a powerful creator of your experience. 'Should' and 'Impossible' are disempowering words that bolster any obstacles that might be standing between you and your dreams. At the Dream Party™ you will have the opportunity to, literally, shred your 'Shoulds' and 'Impossibles.' Doing so will move you closer to your dreams for the future, AND you'll receive a special gift!
--- What feedback did you get about last year's Party?
"Compared to traditional networking events, the 2011 Party was such a treat! From the premise to the décor, to the agenda, to the mix of attendees - there was nothing stale about this event. It really got you focused on one simple and very personal thing: 'What's Your Dream?' Finally, a networking event that isn't about your business' purpose or sales goals, but about individuals - their desires and aspirations. What a delightful and refreshing change!"
~ Michelle Girasole, co-founder of The Sassy Ladies, a Dream Party™ sponsor
Invite others, and make it a night out with friends, family, or colleagues! Your dreams will thank you.
Do you have questions about the Dream Party that are not answered here?
Feel free to contact me by phone or email, and I'll be happy to help!

* Article: 4 Steps To Awaken Your Dreams
Act 1 – (January, 2002)
Curtain comes up on woman who: hates her job, (correction: jobs), is buried in debt, has low credit scores, lives in a basement apartment (this, ironically, is one of the few things she is proud of), has a tumultuous love life, and is deep in the throws of therapy working on strained family dynamics that run painfully deep. This woman has dreams of having her own business, doing work she loves, owning her own home, healing life-long wounds, and finding love. She’s ready for
change and willing to do whatever it takes to make her dreams become reality!
Act 2 – (January, 2007)
Curtain comes up revealing the same woman, now with a mysterious twinkle in her eye and a glow that seems to emanate from her core. This is a woman who: independently owns two rental properties (with skylights), has wonderful tenants, great credit, a restored connection with her family, is married to her soul mate, lives on 35 acres within walking distance of the ocean, and has a business of her own, doing what she loves...coaching people toward living their dreams. She knows the beauty of dreaming and what it takes to make those dreams come true—that’s what she’s all about!
- - -
Welcome to my life! I’m living proof that 5 years is enough time to make significant life changes.
I want this for you! For everyone!
How would you like your story to go? What script would you write for your life five years from now? What’s YOUR dream?
It takes real bravery to admit that you’re afraid, and pursuing a dream can be very scary! I meet and talk to people every day who express fears about sharing their dreams, dreams that hide just beneath the surface. Many report having historically shared their dreams only to find little support or encouragement, much less celebration! Sharing a dream can certainly
be risky. Yet, a question to consider is, what’s at risk when our dreams remain a secret, something locked away, deep within us?
I, personally, love the way dreams are fueled by a strange desire often difficult to explain. I love the contemplative stages: 1) recognizing a desire for something currently out of reach; 2) wondering if you’re capable of making it happen, 3) debating
yourself on whether to pursue this desire/dream or remain in the safety of wonder. Let me assure you that in pursuing my dreams, I am not without waves of terror! But I know that overcoming fear makes the fruition of a dream that much sweeter.
Here are 4 powerful steps that have helped me and others to connect with the dormant dreamer within, and begin to take pro-active steps towards making dreams real.
1. Get honest with your self. We’re all in a constant process of creating and re-creating our lives, whether actively or passively. Are your actions creating the life you want in this very moment? If not, it’s time to make new choices.
2. Allow yourself to confront your fears and explore. What’s the worst-case scenario? What’s the likelihood of this scenario happening? Pinpoint what you are really afraid of. What might be the cost of going for your dream? Then ask yourself, how does that compare with the cost of not pursuing your dream? Keep in mind that costs are not just monetary. Consider the cost of your happiness and how that will impact all areas of your life.
3. Look ahead. Five years from now, how will you feel if you still haven’t taken action on pursuing your dreams? Five years from now, how will you feel when you look back and celebrate the decision you made five years prior? Five years from now, what will have been the best decision?
4. Take a step. Decide what pro-active steps you can begin to take towards your deepest desires and give yourself a deadline. And lastly, decide when you will begin to take these pro-active steps towards your deepest desire. When is NOW going to be the "right" time?
May all your dreams come true!

Farewell for now dreamers, whether fast asleep or fully awake. But first, I leave you with this bit of Gloria Steinem wisdom to chew on: "If what's in your dreams wasn't already real inside you, you couldn't even dream it."

A JUMP START: For those who wish to make a special commitment to accountability, goal-setting, and support around your dream, I offer private one-to-one coaching. Individualized support and empowerment principles are applied to overcome obstacles, clarify the vision, and align the goal with you and your authentic gifts and passions. To get a jump start on your year and discuss one or more of these questions during a Complimentary Coaching Session, contact me! HAPPY NEW YEAR!

What is Your Primary Aim?
January 2007
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The following excerpt is from a book called "The E- Myth Revisited" by Michael E. Gerber. It begins with the premise that giving some thought to how we'd want the story of our life to go if we were to pre-record our life testament to play for friends, family, and colleagues at our own funeral, is a powerful reflective tool in creating our life with intention, now:
"How would you like that story to go? That's your Primary Aim. What would you like to be able to say about your life after it's too late to do anything about it? That's your Primary Aim. If you were to write a script for the tape to be played for the mourners at your funeral, how would you like it to read? That's your Primary Aim. And once you've created the script, all you need to do is make it come true. All you need to do is begin living your life as if it were important. All you need to do is take your life seriously. To create it intentionally. To actively make your life into the life you wish it to be."
What is your Primary Aim?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can hear it now: That's all?!?! Well that sounds difficult!
Maybe it is. Or, maybe it proves the simplest thing you've every done. Either way, I'd bet you've successfully endured things much more difficult...so if, in fact, it proves difficult, we both know you've got what it takes.
We are constantly creating and re-creating our lives with the choices we make.
THE TOUGH QUESTIONS THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE:
Are you actively creating the life you want in this very moment?
What is the cost of trying? How does that compare with the cost of never knowing?
Five years from now, what will have been the best decision?
When is NOW going to be the "right" time?
