serious question, “If you knew you were going to die soon, would you
have any regret s?” Everyone in the room (twenty-one of us) said yes!
One lady asked me why I did not follow my true calling and that it was
a shame that I was letting my natural ta lents die.
She was right but how, where, when was I to do it? How could I
make a decent living at it? I was afraid a nd I knew I did not have
enough confidence. My mom u se to say, “Honey, y ou have a destiny
and no matter how y ou ‘run’ your life. God knows why you are here. He

later I became sick. I suddenly knew it was because I was not following
what I longed to do—what I was meant to do. My husband totally
supported my going into a home-based business and I started Irene
Martina Consulting and have never looked back.
