free stuff From Denise
There were a few resources that just didn’t seem to fit well into anywhere else on the website - and a few other documents that folks regularly ask us for. So, we bundled them all together here on the “Free Stuff” page. Take a look. There’s some good stuff here…
Audio Interviews

Poetry
Much of Denise's work is seasoned with poetry - her own and that of other poets. Many of Denise's poems are published in her book The Wholehearted Journey and recited on the CD Poems for the Wholehearted Journey. We receive a lot of requests for printed copies of the poems she has recited in her presentations. Here are print versions of some of Denise's poems that are most-frequently requested (as well as some video links to watch her recite them):

Newsletter
Several times a year, we publish the (Free) True Livelihood Newsletter. Written by Denise, it is intended primarily for people who are employed to help others manage their livelihoods, careers and jobs. (But many readers tell us that it is as meaningful to them personally as it is professionally.)
