Ronnie, who owns the high-end spa where I get “done” and The Lovely Maria works once a week, was in Paris on a clothes buying trip for her store. She is having breakfast at Angelique, a well-known, “in” cafe, enjoying her “dessert” of Mont Blanc. The woman next to her, well dressed and well spoken, comments on the place and the Mont Blanc. She is just returning from an assignment in Moscow.
“What do you do?” asks Ronnie.
“I’m a consultant and speaker,” she says.
“Do you know Alan Weiss?” asks Ronnie.
“YOU know Alan Weiss?!” she says, “Of course I do. Who doesn’t in this profession? How do YOU know him?”
“Every Thursday afternoon, manicure and pedicure with Dawn.”
