Roachford.... and Roachford.... and Roachford... and sometimes I listen to other stuff too :-)
Love Kirk Franklin too!
Movies
Anything with brother Samuel L Jackson and Denzil Washington (hated snakes on the plane though... sorry Sammy). Also LOVE John Travolta and will watch ANYTHING with him in it. Don't have a favourite female artist yet.
Television
Anything the kids watch plus anytime I get a look in I will stop for Grey's Anatomy, Criminal Minds and the UK BBC school drama with Neil Morrisey in that I can't remember the name of right now!
Books
Anything personal development/self help related (I have ALOT of books!) Mark Victor Hansen is one of my favourites.
Also love Alice Walker, Maya Angelou and getting into womenism and being a womanist so who knows....!
Heroes
My mum and dad (and their generation) who left the caribbean for a better life in England (the Motherland) and was treated like shit because of their colour! Despite that they prevailed and all of us first generation Black British are hopefully making them proud!
My name is Diane Corriette and I am a trained life coach and professional blogger who builds online businesses using blogs, membership sites and social networks on Ning and teaches mothers how to build them too.
I have a video podcast called Mothers Belong At Home and create videos on how to set up your own blog and also other areas relating to starting an online business.
I focus on blogs, membership sites, social networks, audio/video podcasts so if you have an interest in learning how to use any of those you can subscribe to receive my latest blog post by email - just click the link below
I also run a podcast series called Confessions Of An Infomanic which covers more advanced things to do once your blog/membership site is up and running.
For mothers looking to site their own social network using Ning I have written a free ebook called Ningology that you can get access to by visit http://www.ningology.net
Once your blog is up you then earn an income online by writing valuable content that people want to read and that helps others. You can use Google adsense to help you earn an income and also sell affiliate products and information products (either your own or someone elses as an affiliate)
To learn how to set up your wordpress blog join my FREE membership site at http://www.makemoneyblogging.tv - which will help you get started and show you how you can make money blogging. It contains videos that take you step by step through the process.
And that is how I am building my online online empire that will be providing me with a 5-6 figure income a month by 2012. I teach mothers because I believe that we belong at home raising our children (if that is where we want to be) and can use the internet to make money online - and yes it works just as well for fathers too. We don't have to give up who we are when we have children and 3-5 years of working online can bring in a large enough income into the household. Blogs work particularly well for mothers who may be working offline already - maybe as a therapist, speaker or life coach. Or any mother already running a business whether it is online or offline.
Even if you are in full time work. If you find time to blog and build your business it can eventually take over from your salary in a full time job. The mothers I help are taught about mindset (in particular the mindset of a blogger) and planning what they want to happen because it is just as important to success. Otherwise you find yourself working online for years and never earning an income or making any money.
>I am in the UK and am happy to talk offline at events for women business networks or for groups of mothers/women. I am also happy to talk at online teleseminars, if you run a blogtalkradio show or at any other online event. Get in touch using the contact us form on my blog Inspirational Guidance.
You can read a number of testimonials about me and the products I have created on my blog.
You can join my social networks (if applicable) here
Who I'd like to meet: Women who work online and who are looking to join a great network full of other women.
Women Internet Marketers is the place to be at http://www.womeninternetmarketers.ning.com
If you work in the field of personal development/self-help and would like to talk about doing something together get in touch. I am in the UK but I also run teleseminars so online or off give me a shout.
