Decades ago, when I first started out speaking in Houston to small groups of people about writing and marketing, I met some beautiful students who are still my friends today.
One of them is Louise Dewey, pictured with me above.
Louise is one of those angelic souls who believed in me before I believed in myself.
I remember her offering to finance me doing my own seminars. That was decades ago, when I was still struggling. She offered to loan me the money to go out into the world in a big way. She had visions of me gathering large crowds, speaking before them, inspiring and informing them.
I was nobody back then. No name. No Internet to promote me. No more than maybe one book out.
But Louise believed in me.
It took a while for my belief in myself to catch up. I had a lot of work to do to get clear.
While I didn’t accept her offer at the time, I never forgot it. It was one of the events that helped me move forward in my career.
I saw Louise the other day, when she drove here from Houston for Nerissa’s food sensitivity party.
I reminded her of her kind offer decades ago. She didn’t remember it but wasn’t surprised by it. She said she’s always believed in me. Still does.
Support can accomplish miracles. I’ve gotten support when facing health challenges, weight loss goals, fitness contests, business building and more.
If you don’t have a Louise in your life, consider Miracles Coaching.
Having someone support you, encourage you, inform and inspire you is truly one of the fast-track tickets to success.

All of us should be so fortunate to have people like Louise in our lives…people who believe in us when we fail to believe in ourselves. However, Joe, I take issue with your comment: “I was nobody back then. No name. No Internet to promote me. No more than maybe one book out.”
Yes, you WERE somebody. You have benn “somebody” since the day you were created by the ONE who creates all. You have always had a name to the ONE.
With that said, I applaud you for coming so far, but not in fame and fortune, but in realization that you ARE a worthwhile human being and loved, not for your success, but who you truly are. Remember that, my friend. Blessings.
Joe, I totally agree with Jeannie in Wimberley! YOU have always been somebody – you just grew into a more magnificent somebody with your beliefs and actions. I applaude you and cherish our friendship.
Thank you for sharing our story.
See Joe, even Louise agrees with me. You are and have always been Special and Special People only grow in Specialness.:wink:
