    It's becoming a Theme, Surviving or Thriving?

    A great friend and kicking supporter of this project sent me an inspiring link, see below!

    It's a 3.22min interview by Teri Hatchet with Mariel Hemingway.

    Are you Surviving or are you Thriving is a THEME. Truly knowing what makes me Thrive took ages, years and allot longer than I imagined. I suspect I'll keep learning and adding to this short list. Above all I Thrive sharing the idea that WE have the option, we choose how we want to experience our lives.

    I'd love to hear your comments or read about the things that make you Thrive. Please email me at iamthrivingnow@gmail.com if you can share your thoughts. Enjoy the film below,

    Radio Interview & our Move to London

    I wanted to share an interview I did with Hannah Murray from Talk Radio Europe http://www.talkradioeurope.com/clients/monteiro.mp3
    It's 17 minutes long, not mad about hearing myself but its a move in the right direction and its been fantastic to receive new interest in the project! Thank you Carly for mentioning our project!

    Also, I'd like to ask for your help. I am putting together the 10 questions I'll ask each Thriver and I'd really appreciate any you might want to know the answers to?
    1. Question I'd like to know each of your answers to is: What does Thriving mean to you?

    Rafa and I begin our drive to London tomorrow at 2am. We'll be taking the 24 hours Ferry from Santander to Portsmouth and I've included a picture of us preparing yesterday, see below. With Rafa's car drooling habit a friend suggested I take a snorkel and goggles, I took her advise, Thanks Katy.
