It’s the New Year so let’s get started out on the right foot…or should I say…hand!

This month Jayne Sanders, Purpose & Law of Attraction Coach and Master Scientific Hand Analyst, will present provocative details about why living true to your design and using your innate gifts, is the only way to genuine joy and fulfillment. She will also discuss the fascinating, life-changing technology of Scientific Hand Analysis, featured in a FORBES article about her and the accuracy of her work. Volunteers will receive a FREE mini-reading!

How would your life change if you…
