Meet Connie Bennett, the beautiful, talented jewelry designer.
As of now, she nabs the #1 Google spot. Hmm.
As you can see, this is another Connie, a blonde and not yours truly, the Smart Habits Girl, author of SUGAR SHOCK! and a brunette.
So I bow in admiration and respect to the much-in-demand artist, who creates amazing pieces.
Plus, she has a really wonderful smile, don’t you think?
Just check out her catalogue.
Maybe the other Connie and I could swap copies of SUGAR SHOCK! in exchange for gorgeous jewelry?
Necklace shrtfst I think it would be fun to figure out a way to work together.
What do you think? What are your ideas about how we could do that?
What do you think of the idea of purchasing a three-month coaching Break Free With Connie package with me and getting a piece of Connie’s jewelry at the same time?
Or buy a piece of jewelry and get a 15-minute Strategy Session with me.

Would you like to lose weight, get more energy and possibly boost your libido?
Just kick sugar and refined carbs!
Admittedly, for many, that’s easier said than done, especially if you feel like you have a sugar addiction or carb addiction.
Of course, as my clients often admit and as I discovered back in 1998, quitting sugar can be quite challenging.
After all, for many of us, we learned to like the sweet stuff in our wombs! (Yes, one fan told me that when her mom was pregnant, she guzzled soda. Seriously, many of us are born hooked on sugar!)
So allow me to help you begin to break free. To get you going, here are three stories full of tips and tactics.
First, I invite you to read my Huffington Post Holiday Health story, 10 Tips to Conquer Your Cravings for Candies, Cookies Or Cakes.
Next, I encourage you to check out my 10 Ways to Kick Sugar article on eDiets.com.
And finally, I recommend that you read nutritionist Jonny Bowden’s fabulous piece, Top 10 Ways to Cut Back on Sugar.
Hope our articles help you. Let us know here. And if you have other tips, please share them with us, too.
For more help, I invite you to join the Smart Habits Fans on Facebook and to check out my book SUGAR SHOCK!
