Barbara Zagata on HubPages

My friends used to say, “You have the Midas Touch,” but it wasn’t until I watched the Secret that I realized there was a formula to what I had been doing all my life. I always assumed everybody went about their life this way; I just thought I was creative and fortunate enough to still have a big imagination!

During my continuing education I was in the midst of a 4 day workshop when all the pieces started coming together and I realized just how true it is, that the words I speak are creating my reality and the more profoundly I understood this the truer it seemed to become for me.

The mission of my first business, Santa Barbara Soul Food was to encourage connection through the pleasures of the table and higher consciousness cooking. Driving home from that weekend, I received new operating instructions: “Let your words be your food.”

A few months later I wrote "Don't Stress~Manifest." It charts the mile markers on my road to financial freedom.

In order to provide additional support I founded Stress Free Personal Finance---this is  not an oxymoron because the techniques I share are designed to help you create new possibilities by providing financial inspiration.

I also maintain a blog and an ezine, Pathway2Abundance.

The highlight of my day is spending free time with my 14 year old son. We love travel to tropical places where we can boogy board and snorkel.
