About Me:
I've had Alopecia Areata since I was 11. I wore wigs for 19 long years but 9 years ago I turned 30 and had my "coming out party" as The Bald Chick!

I am (as of the last 2 weeks) a New York Times Best Selling Author. My 1st book I Love You More has sold over 200,000 copies.

I have a company called I Shine, Inc thats mission is to generate the conversation of love around the world through books, music, speaking, TV, film and the web.

I have a school program called Self-Esteem through Love: Empowering our Children to Shine! The first lesson I share about is "Just Be Yourself" and how I finally learned to embrace that simple though not always easy lesson after many years. You can find out more about my book and school program at
www.HippieandTheBaldChick.com

I am also co-founder of CoCreating Our Reality a global web community using Universal Laws and Principals to cocreate the world of our dreams!
www.CoCreatingOurReality.com (it is on this same social network site)

I believe with every part of me that our biggest challenges become our biggest blessings...Alopecia Areata has certainly been (one of) mine!!!

Have a bright and blessed lifetime!

Keep Shining!

Alopecia on Entourage

I was catching up on my Tivo's episodes of Entourgare (I know...not the most enlightened show) but they mentioned Alopecia twice in one episode. Not really anything about it but just that someone had it which I found strange unless they were obvioulsy trying to bring attention to it. It is awareness month...I was wondering if someone that works on or with the show is affected? I haven't been on this site in a while...Was there any mention of it here? Let me know if you heard anything? I might c… Continue

A post from one of my MySpace friends "Tribe of Eden" on Incurable Diseases and the power of love!

Hello my bald brothers and sisters! I have asked one of my MySpace friends if I could copy his post here. Bryan Eden is part of "Tribe of Eden" a group of hardrockers bringing a positive message to the world through their music. He shared this story in a recent bulletin and I wanted to share it all with you! I am certain, that as Bryan proved...with love...anything is possible! Enjoy and please visit his sites that I listed at the bottom. I thought this was an incredbily powerful testiment to wh… Continue

How/When My Alopecia started (a long one...)

Hello My Shining Ones :-) I also just posted a video that shares some of this same *long* story....if you'd rather watch than read :-) In my first blog I said I would share "how/when" my Alopecia started as the story has unraveled itself to me slowly over the years! When I was 7 or 8 years old I realized I was somehow meant to "travel the world, meet my brothers and sisters and spread the message of love." Yes, perhaps an odd thought for a child, but it was something that resonated in me...lik… Continue

Hello My Bald Brothers and Sisters!

Wow!!! What a great site! And how cool are social network sites! I think Alopecia World is using the same system that we just moved my company to www.CoCreatingOurReality.com. If any of you are following along with the New Earth book with Oprah and Eckhart Tolle you'll enjoy our site...come check it out when you get a chance! But back to Alopecia World...this is awesome! What a great resource and place for people to meet, ask questions and feel a sense of community! I *LOVE* the internet! It is… Continue

Yes, I wanted to go to the conference and also bring some books, but my book wasn't released soon enough. Maybe next year! We could share a table!

Hi Laura,
I was reading a new blog and we were mentioned in it. Just wondering if this made you feel as uncomfortable as it did me?

Hi Laura,
Wow that is FAB about your book! What is the topic? I have a new book out -- my 2nd book -- called, "If Your Hair Falls Out, Keep Dancing!" You can find out more by going to my page. It sounds like you have the same spiritual beliefs that I do...

Hi, Laura. I trust that you're treating life well and reaping every wonderful benefit of doing so. I enjoyed your video about alopecia and biting your nails. I've also enjoyed watching the YouTube videos promoting your book and invite you to upload these to Alopecia World as well. There's a simpler uploader, too. If I can assist you in any way, please let me know. :-)
