One Life

Ya’ll already must know that we’re all about shoes here on YNS but in case we weren’t clear about it yet, one of our goals for our lovely blog is to help people find their next pair of shoes.
So imagine our excitement when Rhonda H. / @BodyLifeLove contacted us on Twitter and told us that she bought a pair of shoes that she saw in one of our Facebook profile pics! She said that her latest pair is her “favorite shoe-gasm to date” and thanked us for making her day.
Well Rhonda, making your day with a pair of shoes makes OUR day here on Your Next Shoes!
Check out Rhonda’s next shoes which don’t look a day over fabulous:
Rhonda H.’s next shoes!
Lovin’ the very paparazzi-like just getting down from the car pose!
Rhonda’s shoes are the Steve Madden Bevv B platform pumps in blush multi ($99.99 at Heels). Do you think these’ll be your next pair of shoes?
If these or any of the pairs you see here on YNS ARE your next pair of shoes, then you’d know we love to see them! Send us pictures of your next shoes at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

I relied on what I knew, my corrective action, survival. With everything in me, I took no prisoners. I won a top sales award for the year in my job, worked weekends with my at home jewelry business, competed in three figure competitions, did three photo shoots, hit the gym at least three days a week, and obtained my personal training certification and began working with clients. I didn’t stop and I didn’t look back. I accomplished goals, succeeded with results and exceeded bottom line measures and avoided every feeling for the love of life that called to be expressed.
In every circumstance the lens through which we are looking captures only a small view of a much grander experience.
Changing the lens for ourselves through experience expands awareness regardless of the uncontrollable or regardless if one likes or dislikes what is seen.
In August 2008, I spoke with someone to help me understand the details regarding a contract for a photo shoot. He said, “Sounds like you have a lot going on, let’s meet to talk about this.” He showed up at Starbucks with his folder and opened it to a clean white sheet of paper. He quietly wrote and asked specific questions as I rattled off the above, my financial goals and obligations, my future aspirations, and the details of all my busy, busy, busy life held.
He showed me the once clean white sheet of paper.
RHONDA was written inside the circle in the middle of the page. Surrounding ME in the middle was a convoluted diagram of the life that I was living. My chest tightened as I looked at this full sheet of paper. Pointing at the information that extended from RHONDA in the center, he calmly said, “All of these are coming from you. What’s coming in?” In that moment, my awareness expanded...my lens changed.
