But my good friend highly recommends her, so that’s why I’m mentioning Rosie Pekar’s “Deliberate Creation” seminar happening Saturday at UCI 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Along with her motivational work Rosie is a trauma/crisis expert and served with an Australian relief unit in Indonesia after the 2005 tsunami.  She is greatly concerned with what happened in Haiti and has amazing insight as to what needs to be done to keep people alive.
