My New Baby

Baby My New Baby

Several have asked “where’s Piper?” First off, THANK YOU! I’ve received tweets, emails, etc… from so many of you. I feel truly honored to have each of you in my life.

The short answer is, I’ve been really busy.

The longer version is, I’ve changed directions in my life.  As you may know, I ran DailyDivaDish for approximately 1.5 years. It was such a beautiful journey in my life. I’ve met amazing people and have had some wonderful opportunities because of it.

But, I was ready for more. I’m a person who needs to keep growing and stretching her wings. DDD wasn’t doing that for me anymore. So, over the last 3 months I’ve created a new project. To be honest, it’s more ME than anything I’ve ever done. And I’m finally ready to share.

I’ve developed a site specifically for entrepreneurs. It’s my new “baby!” Her name is PiperLarson.com. She’s really a chip off the old block. icon smile My New Baby

I would love for you to pop over and say “HI!” Here’s a link to my very first post. It explains exactly what brought me to this point.

Can’t wait to catch up with you! Have a beautiful day.

Clearing the Way

Have you ever felt “stuck” in your life?  You know something great lies ahead, but you can’t seem to see the road?  In fact, life may actually be going quite well….but you know it could be even better.

I began feeling this way about two years ago.  I had a medical-based career and made a very good living.  My daily activities centered around consulting with cardiologists, heart surgeons and interventional radiologists on medical procedures.  And even though it all looked good on paper, I was miserable.

While in the middle of all of this, I realized something about myself…

Project: Organzing Jewelry and Scarves

jewelry board 4 Project: Organzing Jewelry and Scarves

My love affair with jewelry began at a very early age.  I loved sneaking into my mother’s jewelry box and trying on all her shiny and sparkly baubles.  As I grew up, I became even more enamored with these adornments.  By the time I was in college I saved up to buy my first real emerald ring.  The stones were tiny, the gold band was thin…but I was proud.
