About 3 years ago Marie Osmond arrived in Los Angeles with two of her seven children to visit her best friend and speak to a group of young girls. She had brought her youngest of girls along only because she had this annoying intuition that she HAD to bring her, even tho’ it was going to be very inconvenient to bring a toddler on a business trip. Awaking to the morning news, she quickly saw WHY her intuition kept demanding she bring the child–her home in Utah had caught fire in the night destroying their garage, Marie’s office and the bedroom of the two girls with her–everyone else survived. If she had NOT brought her two little girls on this trip, chances are they would have died in the blaze. This is how this book of memories from Mare’s life opens. All of Marie’s journals she had faithfully written over the years sadly burned in the fire. So when the publishers asked her to write this book she had to sit down to reminisce afresh on memories that helped shape who she is today. The results an endearing look into a real person we can all relate to. She encourages us all to pay attention to our “gut” and intuition as it can prevent us from disaster (i.e. the fire) and to listen to the lessons we come upon at inconvenient and unexpected times to help us make the right choices (i.e the encounter she had with a bitter drunken Shelly Winters, the Oscar winning star, about how she wished SHE had spent more time with her own daughter). There are several mystic encounters Osmond shares which you have to take her word for. She is a woman who passionately believes in her personal faith in her God and has charming stories to share of parenthood, midlife and womanhood.This is NOT an autobiography of her entire life, rather it is glimpses of her life since motherhood , including her divorce from her 2nd husband, with a lot of emphasis on her time on Dancing with the Stars. A throughly fun read–I read the entire book on a cross-country flight and was left wanting even more.

I'm not surprised about this review of this film. I won't be taking my 7 & 8 year old. Parents, when your kids are under 12, you still have the ability and the responsibility to protect them. The world is scary enough, they don't need to go to a "kids" film and watch constant threat of death. It's the stuff of nightmares for sure!

My 7 year old just got in her first pinching, slapping fight with her best friend...and she did the first pinch, so it was her fault, no matter what prompted it. Now the mother won't let them play together for a week nor sit together on the bus. Katie is devastated. Oh the price of losing control.

David Letterman got caught sleeping around when a reporter tried extort millions to keep it secret. Former President Clinton was caught up in the Monica Lewinski scandal. Kanye West humiliated beloved country singer Taylor Swift. Celebrity and politician mistakes are endless. But we can learn much by what they do next!

IS there a right response when we make wrong choices? What should we do when make mistakes, big mistakes, and just want to put it all behind us and go on? 

As I told my daughter this morning, the secret to fixing your mistakes is simply to take responsibility and genuinely apologize for your actions. When you apologize you defuse the negative consequences to your mistake. They don't all go away, but you win friends and influence people with honesty must faster than denying fault.

When public leaders and celebrities make mistakes, it's always interesting to see what they do next. Publicists know the best road to damage control is a quick confession and apology to defuse the incident. Remember Hugh Grant's 1995 incident with the prostitute? He went on Jay Leno and admitted it was just dumb. And he won his public back. Now he's back in the movies. As far as the recent mistakes of David Letterman and Kanye West I predict their mistakes will have a short attention span in the media because both men were repentant quickly, as opposed to President Clinton when he was caught in his nightmare of the Monica Lewinski scandal. President Clinton feared what was to be lost and held off his confession which caused him much longer angst in the media. 

Don't get me wrong, I didn't use these examples with my 7 year old. I am sharing them with you because I want you to learn the simple lesson that no matter how awful or dirty your mistake is, if you accept responsibility for your actions and genuinely apologize, you can start over.

After all, we will all make mistakes, even Christians. Hopefully you will gain enough self control as to not pinch your friends or do what some of these celebrities are doing. But when you do make mistakes, reconcile quickly by acknowledging your part and coming clean. You will win friends and influence those who are watching you from the sidelines! And for those of you who have been deeply hurt by Christians, Beth Moore wrote a great book called When Godly People do Ungodly Things. May that book encourage you.

Christian artist Eli with one of his most famous videos, "Life on the Edge." Personally, I feel this speaks to porn addicts. Eli - Life On The Edge (Concept Video) EMI CMG (P) (C) 2006 ForeFront Records. All rights reserved. Unauthorized reproduction is a violation of applicable laws.

I like this song...it's the story of so many who are living on the edge of temptation.

Are you coping with disbelief? Check out my friend Sara Rush's latest Viral spot. This was meant to be funny (and encourage you to eat fiber), but it also reminds how often gals are in disbelief of truth they're told about their guy! If everyone you know tells you he's cheating or no good...guess what? He's cheating or no good!

Okay ladies, tonight, officially I begin my PhD program. With fear and trepidation I embark on getting my doctorate so I can be even more equipped to help you achieve the lives of your dreams. I will still actively be coaching my clients and writing my books and blogs, I’ll just be getting better and better for you. Pray for me girls… I’m hitting the books in a major way for the first time in 12 years (since my Master’s program). Exciting thus far. First order of business is diving into the major world of research–in depth research–which is wonderful because I can gain more and more insight into ways to help each and every one of you.
Keep up with my new online TV SHOW at Victorya.TV. Last night we covered the Michael Jackson drug addiction that lead to his demise, the affair of Governor Sanford and the “firing” of a Young and the Restless star over refusal to do a gay kiss. Check it out.
