Up until now our Life Changes Live! events have been presented by Off Hollywood Media, but this is the first time that we do an event in collaboration with another event. And this was not just any event, it was the Conscious Life Expo of Los Angeles.

This is a premier event in this Industry, attracting hundreds of vendors and around 10,000 attendees over a three day period, and now because of our event, being the day before, it has been extended over a four day period.

So here we are, not even a year old as a company and already we're playing with the big guys, and we are very excited and honored to be doing so.

Our event was the Pre-Conference Kick-off to the Conscious Life Expo this year. What a way for us to Kick-off our own New Year.

Our guest tonight was Dr. Ken Best who spoke about our personal "Rabbit Holes," and how we get in them and how we can get out of them. Many of you may remember Dr. Best from a previous radio show. To learn more about him and his work, visit him at www.drkenbest.com.

Dr. Ken had a "This is your life," type of surprise, when our very own Producer Mark M. Laisure, surprised him with a song, as a way of thanking him for the work that he has done with him. This was the first time that Mark had sung on our show, live or radio, or for that matter, on stage in many years, but from the reaction of the audience, it won't be the last.

Marco Missinato provided his beautiful accompaniment to the evening with his own compositions setting the mood for the show. And our guest musician was Bernard Harris, who currently happened to be homeless, who sang one of his compositions. Then Barnard Harris was joined by my friend Laura De Leon and myself and together the three of us sang "Ooh Ooh Child... Things are going to get easier...." This was quite a special moment.

This all came about because Life Changes was honoring Charles Hill as the Luminary of the Month at our event tonight, which we did. Charles is the Founder of the non-profit organization, United Steps. United Stpes offers simple solutions to addressing homelessness in Los Angeles, solutions that every day people can apply to all aspects of life. United Steps’ practical approach of talking to people, but more importantly, listening to people resonated strongly with the audience. Charles stated “We see people as answers, not problems."

The evening ended with Dorothy Lee Donahue addressing the audience with her "State of the Universe Address," and Mark M. Laisure leading a guided visualization, and with the audience members staying for over an hour after the event. We are getting used to that, we don't take it for granted, but we do like it, it makes us feel like we did our job.

Thank you to all the participants and our attendees, it is for you that we take pride in joy in doing these.
