Please let me introduce Shelby M Hill, a professional relationship coach and also an FOJ (Friend of Jewel). He coaches women regarding dating, relationship and social barriers. Interesting work, huh?
After watching women in his life experience unfulfilled, volatile, and dysfunctional relationships, he decided that he wanted to educate women about men--in addition to educating them on loving and working on themselves, rather than expecting a man to do it for them. He's challenged with making his clients understand that by investing in themselves, they can change the outcome of their personal situations.
One of the things that I love about Shelby is his unconditional and unabashed adoration for his wife, British. His blog, called My Life With My Wife, is a glimpse inside their relationship and never fails to make me smile. His honest accounts of those little "situations" that all marriages experience have given me great insight into the "husband's" point of view. He calls British his best friend, business partner, lover and confidante. When he even thinks of her, he beams--and I find it quite refreshing!
Shelby has extended an invitation to my readers to friend him on Facebook (Shelby M Hill), follow him on Twitter(@shelbymhill), comment on his blog, and visit his website. He also offers complimentary coaching sessions. Contact him via email at shelby@shelbymhill.com for more information.
I asked Shelby about his plans for the future and I wasn't surprised to find that they include writing books, hosting teleseminars and speaking engagements. And of course, British.
Your comments--priceless!!

It's happened again. For the second time in just a few months. A house on my block is in foreclosure. And it's not that someone lost a job or that someone became ill. In both cases, it's because one partner in the marriage got caught cheating and the dissolve of the marriage resulted in the loss of the family home. What is this about? Is it a trend?
I don't think that I know a person that I would put everything on the line for--my home, my family, my way of life, etc. But then, perhaps the guilty parties didn't think that their deeds would ever come to light, so they would never be held accountable. I just dont know....
My husband is not perfect, and I'm even farther away from perfection--but we do have genuine love and respect for each other. And even more, we LIKE each other. Years from now, after the children are long gone, we will still have each other and I look forward to it. We still joke, giggle, and just enjoy each other's company.
This is definitely one that I'm going to need help with. What are your thoughts on it? Would you risk everything? Why?
Your comments--priceless!!

I've been watching the Real Housewives of Orange County. I have never seen a group of folks so out of touch with reality in my life. Are they kidding???
I've never seen any of them cleaning the house, or checking homework, or even putting gas in their Range Rover. In fact, one had a cleaning woman come but she refused to let the woman vacuum, for fear of waking her adult, non working, non going to school daughter. Let's examine that... ADULT, no job, no school--But let's not wake her??? What is that about??? Another went to visit her son, who plays minor league baseball. She even flew the son's girlfriend in. And he wouldn't even acknowledge her. It was as if she were invisible. Would not even part his lips to say hello to his mom. Still another was not certain if she had air conditioning in her home. She said she hears something "click on" sometimes, but she's not sure if it's air conditioning. Huh??
They went on spa trips in limos, vacations abroad, and elaborate dinner parties while their kids drank illegally, flunked out of school, and abused drugs. The kids were disrespectful--even cursing their moms. The husbands were equally disrespectful and disrepected. One wasn't allowed to go on the vacations, and whined about it. These women compare breast augmentations, bed linens(the $8,000 set of sheets won), and who is richest. I can't imagine myself in that life.
Is this how the rich live?? If so, I might just be happy the way I am...
