AOL.COMThis morning I got a surprise. I saw my photo, along with my husband Mike, on the front page of AOL.COM. Friends from all of the country txt'd me their surprise and delight at seeing us on their computer this morning.

Funny, though I knew it was going to be on there, it didn't really hit me how big it was. Millions of people are now reading about the financial mess Mike and I found ourselves.
Luckily, we are extremely resourceful, smart, and educated. We were not smart enough to avoid it in the first place, but we have been smart enough to dig our way out. Over the past year, with a lot of work and not much fun, we have managed to get almost totally out of the debt we were in at the first of the year.
Trust me, this has been a challenge to our relationship; especially when I've yet to create a fraction of the income Mike has created. Nevertheless, we have managed to remain in love and passionate about each other, and what we are doing.
This never would have happened if we hadn't had the Cycles of the Heart Model to keep us from being at each others' throats when things got really stressful. Thank you, God, for giving me this amazing discovery!
