Meet Cathy
Welcome! Thank you for visiting my site. On this site you will find a variety of information on health, wellness, personal development, online marketing and ways to inspire you to live the fullest life.
I live in Queens, NY about fifteen miles from NYC. I have lived here most of my adult life and love being close to the city, the suburbs and the beaches. I grew up on Long Island, NY and at that time the island was just being developed. We lived close to the beach and that is where I spent most of my summers. I am the oldest of 5, I have 2 sisters and 1 brother. Sadly my dad and youngest brother are no longer with us. My 81 year old mom has chronic arthritic pain but that does not stop her from living a very busy life. It took me a few attempts to find the right marriage partner. I have been married to Bob Marchetti for 19 years, and our prayers were answered when 17 years ago we adopted our son James.
I have been a nurse for over 30 years and most of that time has been in Home Care. It has been a fulfilling and rewarding career. In this type of nursing you are visiting people in their homes working closely with them and their families and finding ways to help them reach their goals. I have worked with the geriatric population, new mothers and babies, the mentally ill and everyone in between! Working with all kinds of people has given me so much. As a home care nurse it is expected that you have sound nursing skills and can function at a high level independently. You never know what you will find when you walk into someone’s home and I quickly learned that as a caregiver and guest in their home you need to know what your patient wants for their health and start from there. As we all know the health care system as we knew it is changing. Home Care is undergoing many changes where people are coming home from the hospital much sicker with greater restrictions on the Home Care services that they are able to receive. This has been frustrating and everyone is feeling the pressures and stress.
About 3 years ago I realized I was spending a lot of time at my “job” and had to accept the fact that it was no longer the nursing that I fell in love with all those years ago. I was starting to choose unhappiness for security and my freedom for security. My husband had a health scare and I realized I wanted to spend more time with him, my son and family and friends. When I was young a friend and I took off for 6 months and camped throughout Europe and Morocco. We had little money, not much food but had an incredible adventure and saw parts of the world I had never seen, I was not afraid to take risks. This leads me to what I am doing now. I have started a home based business where I teach and train people to have the life they deserve. If you want to nourish your mind, body and spirit, I can help you. If you want to learn about marketing online I can show you what I have learned. Online marketing was new to me so I found the leaders in the industry and learned from them. I may not have all the answers but what I am good at is finding the best person in each field, becoming part of that team and getting the benefit of all their knowledge. So with me you get my life experiences, expertise and also get the expertise of my business associates Beverly Monical and Terry Petrovick as well as countless others. I have come out of my comfort zone and returned to those days where I do have a choice in how I live my life. I encourage you to look around this site and ask yourself the questions I asked myself.
Are you living the life you always wanted?
Are you doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different outcome?
If you keep doing what you are doing, where will you be 5 years from now?
What is holding you back?
You do have a choice and I am ready to help you reach your goals.
To your Health and Happiness!
