FOOD FOR THOUGHT: A Unique Workshop about Healthy Eating Habits

June 17, 2011

 | 
Posted by in Events, News

Sometimes the reason a diet doesn’t work has nothing to do with food. Even when we have the best intentions of eating healthy, we fall off the wagon. Why is it so hard to sustain healthy eating habits for an extended period of time? Why do we fall back into our old ways of eating?

Holes: A Food for Thought Workshop addresses the “holes” or gaps in our attempts to make healthy habits part of our permanent lifestyle. This four-part workshop series helps attendees find that ‘missing link’ that keeps us from reaching our goals.  It’s not a diet program and it can help no matter what your eating habits are.

Part 1 June 21: What is Holes? (Intro to workshop and open discussion)

Part 2 June 28: What’s Eating Holes in Your Goals? (What is getting in the way of your success? What causes you to eat and act the way you do over time?)

Part 3 July 5: How to Stop the Holes from Growing (It is not about the “right” plan, the latest trend, or will power.)

Part 4 July 12: Heal the Holes (Learn about the support available so you can reach and sustain your goals!!!)

The 4-part workshop series costs $39.99 in advance or $49.99 at the door. The workshops will be held at Davidson Realty from 7:00 – 9:00 pm on June 21, June 28, July 5 and July 12. They will be presented by Robert Ferry LMHC, who specializes in addiction and personal coaching. Contact Dawn Barbarine at (904) 347-5301 or DawnBarbarine@gmail.com to reserve your spot or learn more.

We know our closings are bound to catch up to our sales and May was proof of that. Here are our Tops:

She sold a beautiful 4,700 square foot home in Ponte Vedra Beach in May. It’s great to see those high priced homes selling again and if anyone can find the perfect buyer for your Jacksonville home, it’s Beverly! Ana Speziale

The Top Sales Agent for the most buyer sales is Ana Speziale with almost $600,000 in buyer sales and over $1.1 Million in total sales. Ana loves her customers and her customers love her! We receive letter after letter raving about Ana’s customer service. She does so well in this business by always valuing people and putting their needs before anything else.

dottieThe Top Lister is Dottie Lay with over $750,000 in listings sold! Dottie was also our Top Producer in February and March, not to mention our Top Producer for last quarter. She is a rock star! Dottie is someone our other agents truly look up to. She is happy to lend a hand and share with others what makes her so outstanding.

Thank you to all of our agents for another great month in 2011!
