MY TWO CENTS
It’s not about your presents, but it is about your presence. Therein lies the spirit of the holiday season… How quickly I can get caught up in the gift giving and the holiday season and forget to be here and present. It’s an exciting time of the year, but I don’t want to get lost in the hustle and bustle. I want to be in the moment and be present with those I’m celebrating this season with. So, I will keep this quote close at hand to remind me to work on being more present.
JulieAnne O’Connor (a.k.a. JulieAnne Young) was born outside of Reno, Nevada, and was raised on severely contaminated property where she lost her father to Lymphoma Cancer at a young age, and was told she too could one day die of cancer from the toxins. Realizing life was precious, JulieAnne set out on a mission to live life to the fullest and she moved to Los Angeles to begin acting. During these years JulieAnne began asking every couple she met what the secret to a happy relationship was. JulieAnne’s 20+ year study of people has crossed all confines including geographic and economic boundaries, and themes continue to be recurring.
With a TEDx Talk “Alive and Counting” and in addition to her acting, JulieAnne is the author of the Spelling It Out series of books, including Spelling It Out for Your Man and Spelling It Out for Your Career which are available anywhere books are sold. JulieAnne is the host of several shows including 2 Podcasts.
Ms. O’Connor’s books feature quotes by great thinkers, other authors and famous comedians and is categorized as Nonfiction – Mainstream – Inspirational – Philosophy – Self-Help [1].
