The Black Hills is obviously not the melt-

ing pot you will find in larger economic

areas. But we do have diversity – just not

in abundance, yet.

According to Merriman-Webster Diction-

ary, diversity is defined as: 1) the quality

or state of having many different forms,

types, ideas, etc. 2) the state of having

people who are different races or who

have different cultures in a

group or organization.

As a businessperson, I

have read countless ar-

ticles on the benefits of

diversity for businesses.

It affects everything from

creativity to productivity

to the ability to capture

market share. According to the Center for

American Progress, a McKinsey & Com-

pany study found that the increase in

women’s overall share of labor in the Unit-

ed States (women went from holding 37

percent of all jobs to 47 percent over the

past 40 years) has accounted for about a

quarter of current GDP. In a nutshell, a 10%

increase in gender diversity has equaled

at nearly 25% increase in the total dollar

value of all goods and services produced

in the United States .

Within a community, diversity promotes

humanistic values which translate into

more perceived personal worth among its

citizens. It also cultivates an exchange of

innovative ideas. A significant percentage

of new millionaires in the United States

are first-generation Americans – many be-

lieve this is caused by the convergence of

ideas, and methodologies

brought on by cultural di-

versity.

The women on the cover

of this issue all live and

work in the Black Hills –

your community – and are

only a surface snapshot

our diversity. Diversity

is not really about the color of skin – it is

about gender, religion, culture, ethnicity,

and more — the layers that make each of

us unique and special.

I’d like to thank Lisa Houghton of Mona Li-

sa’s Photography for shooting the superb

cy Zandstra, and Melanie Quick Bear. BHW

“We need to reach that happy stage of

our development when difference and diversity

are not seen as sources of division and distrust,

but of strength and inspiration.”

Josefa Iloilo

The idea of improving ourselves is a part of

everyday life. Whether reading self-help

books, trying new diet trends, deciding to

go back to school or taking the stairs in-

stead of the elevator, we are surrounded

with the idea that making changes is a

positive thing.

While change can be positive, it can also

be intimidating. Sharing your goals with

friends can be an empowering part of

making changes to your life. Leah Braun, a

certified professional coach and principle

of Harney Business Group, says that shar-

ing a goal with friends is important be-

cause they can help keep you focused. “A

friend will remember what is important to

you and will help you avoid distractions.”

In addition to keeping you focused, a

friend will hold you accountable for your

actions. “They won’t shy away from asking

tough questions about your progress and

will help

keep

you

on the

right

track,”

Braun

said.

Sharing

is a skill we

(hopefully)

learn from an early

age. The decision to

share with someone may

seem simple, but in reality, is a

very mature thing to do. By sharing with

someone, you are showing them that you

hold them in high esteem. You trust them

enough to give them something that you

value, and hope they value it like you do.

Deciding to trust a friend with a goal is a

big step in your friendship and will likely

strengthen it. If your

friends value your

goals like you do,

they will help

you achieve

them.

Often-

times,

our

friends

can

be our

biggest

cheer-

leaders,

and when it

comes to set-

ting and achieving

a goal, we need all the support we can

get. Going through change can be diffi-

cult, but knowing you have set a goal for

yourself and achieved it is a great feeling.

If you share your goals with friends, they

can help you celebrate along the way, and

will be by your side when you’ve accom-

plished your goals.

Whatever your upcoming goals are, be

they big or small, consider sharing them

with a friend.

Doing so will provide you a partner for

your successes and failures, and will help

provide much needed support along the

way. BHW

Hot SHOTSBoudoir photography. It sounds a bit risque, and it does usually

involve lingerie. But while most women book boudoir sessions in-

tending to give the photos to a significant other, the experience of-

ten winds up being a gift they give themselves.

“It should be empowering,” says photographer Amy Hodge

of Desired Things Bridal & Boudoir in Rapid City.

“I want women to walk out of my studio not only thinking ‘that was

fun,’ but ‘I really am beautiful.’”

In fact, boudoir photography is all about capturing a woman’s beau-

ty by photographing her in flattering poses. Many women choose

to wear lingerie for the photos, while others opt for corsets or a

boyfriend’s shirt. Boudoir photographers are also adept at shooting

“implied nudity,” meaning the subject may be in her birthday suit

but is posed so that nothing improper shows. It’s all up to the client.

Boudoir photography is not just for women who fit so-

ciety’s definition of ‘beautiful.’ It’s for

women of all

To get the best results from your boudoir session, pho-tographer Amy Hodge recom-mends hiring “somebody you feel comfortable with and some-body whose work you like.”

body types, from 18-year-olds to grandmothers.

“I’m not sure there is a typical client,” says Roy Ulrich of Henry Roy

Photography in Rapid City, who adds, “there’s no bigger confidence

boost than a boudoir session, really. Women often ask if photogra-

phers can edit 10 pounds off their photos. The answer is ‘no,’ but

good lighting, posing and minor retouching takes care of a lot.”

Hodge, a former photojournalist, shot weddings and family photos

for years before opening her boudoir studio last year. “I like getting

to know my clients,” she said. “It seems more personal. And then I

feel like I provide them with a better product.”

At Desired Things, boudoir shots include

plenty of pampering, from a pre-shoot

consultation to professional hair and

makeup services and complemen-

tary champagne and chocolates.

“It’s kind of like a supermodel

experience,” Hodge said. “When

you’re in our studio it’s all about

you.”

And while Hodge will talk

with clients beforehand

about their perceived

‘problem areas’ - every-

body has them, she

said - she also has a

rule in her studio: “No

negative self-talk.”

“I really try to make sure

that their experience is

positive and that they

come out feeling good

about themselves,” she www.RapidCityBoudoirPhotographer.com

said. “If their husbands get to benefit from

it, that’s great. But it really is more about

the client for me.”

Boudoir photography has picked up

steam recently as a popular wedding gift

for brides to give their grooms. But Ulrich

estimates that half of his boudoir clients

have their photos taken as gifts for boy-

friends or spouses who are working in the

oil fields or deployed overseas.

One soldier contacted Ulrich from Af-

ghanistan after receiving his girlfriend’s

boudoir shots, saying ‘thanks for making

her feel so good about herself.’ (Ulrich lat-

er shot the couple’s wedding and photos

of their newborn.)

To Ulrich, that was a great compliment.

“Women are so hard on themselves,” he

said. “So to be able to make them feel

good and feel like they look good in a

photograph is kind of a magical power.”

ple who have trouble putting money away

for the future, it can be useful to discover

what money means

to you emotionally.

And for a fun way to

explore how you feel

about money, let’s

compare it to how you

feel about chocolate.

Here are a few of the

possibilities:

1. “I see it, I eat it.” Maybe, if you can’t re-

sist bingeing on choc-

olate, you also can’t

resist spending mon-

ey when it’s available.

Successful saving for

you might be easier if

you earmark savings

for specific purchases,

or reward yourself

with a given amount

to spend when you reach a savings goal.

Better yet, keep your savings out of sight.

Have transfers to savings or contributions

to a retirement fund taken out of your pay-

check before you get it.

2. “I want something different.” If you like

lots of variety in your

chocolate and even

branch out into licorice

or lemon drops, may-

be money represents

freedom and choices

to you. Your savings

strategy might be to

focus on the options

and opportunities that

money can allow you

to enjoy.

3. “Here, have a handful.” If sharing

chocolate is second

nature to you, money

may represent giv-

ing and generosity. To

help you save enough for your own needs,

you might need to focus on an important

reality: that you can give more generously

One dark chocolate M&M contains four

calories. Why did I figure this out, using

actual math? Because though I love choc-

olate, I don’t want to eat more than about

100 calories’ worth a day. No M&M’s were

harmed during the research, although

about 25 of them mysteriously disap-

peared directly afterward.

Even though I ration my chocolate, I make

sure to keep an ample stash in a secret lo-

cation. I strongly deny, however, that this

makes me a chocoholic. I don’t binge or

raid the stash randomly; I just like the se-

curity of knowing where my next choco-

late is coming from.

I feel pretty much the same way about

money. Having savings in the bank and

money in a retirement account represents

security to me. It’s easy for me to budget

it, because I don’t want to lose that secu-

rity. What matters most is knowing that,

if something bad happens or something

good beckons, I can respond to it. I like

knowing the money has my back.

To you, money may mean something

entirely different. Success, maybe. Inde-

pendence. Power. Freedom. The ability to

spend freely or share generously.

What money represents to you doesn’t

have much to do with its practical, every-

day uses. It’s your emotional relationship

with money, how you feel about it.

If you’re among the large numbers of peo-

26 27Finance Finance

when you have a solid financial founda-

tion yourself.

4. “Truffles—umm, I’m worth it.” If you

think gourmet chocolate is the only kind

worth having, perhaps money is a symbol

of success for you. You might find it easier

to save if you focus on results. Try compar-

ing yourself to “average” savers, and make

sure to celebrate when you reach savings

goals.

5. “Chocolate? Who cares?” If you’re

indifferent to chocolate, it’s possible you

don’t pay much attention to money, ei-

ther. Successful saving for you might

mean setting up a no-hassle system, like

automatic transfers, that does it for you.

But seriously, folks. While chocolate is a

sweet analogy, the way you feel about it

may well have nothing to do with the way

you feel about money. Still, it’s useful to

discover what money represents in your

life. Knowing what it means to you can

help you manage it successfully.

And then you can buy all the chocolate

you want.

difficult that many farmers have shifted to more profitable crops, like rubber. But who wants to eat that?

On the demand side, there’s…ME! And you. The average American consumes around 11.7 pounds of chocolate every year. I don’t take the time to weigh mine before I devour it, but I’m pretty sure I eat my 11.7 pounds annually, and quite possibly some of yours as well.

All told, Americans consume around half the world’s chocolate. Europeans eat about 40% of it. That doesn’t leave much for anyone else. And that’s one reason demand is up. Other countries are catch-

ing on. What took them so long?

Some experts believe health benefits may be driving increased demand. And there is

growing evidence suggest-ing chocolate is good for us. I know that’s why I ate my last Snickers bar…for my health. But as a confirmed chocoholic, I believe there’s a bigger threat on the demand side: The sudden enthusiasm for putting chocolate in, on, and around everything. Chocolate milk, chocolate

covered strawberries, and chocolate cereal have been around awhile. Now we can add chocolate-covered bacon for a complete breakfast.

Chocolate connoisseurs dip onions, beef jerky, even roses and wine bottles

I opened my Internet this morning to the following shocking headline: The earth is running out of chocolate. That’s no way to start a day if you’re me. But that’s the word from Mars, Inc., as in chocolate lovers are from Mars. I have no idea where non-chocolate lovers are from.

Also speaking out about the crises is a company called Barry Callebaut, who, I was interested to read, is the world’s larg-est chocolate manufacturer. How did I not

know that? I’ve spent a lifetime studying chocolate. Or rather, I’ve spent a lifetime eating chocolate. And that’s why I found the news so disturbing. Apparently, it boils down to supply and demand. On the supply side, dry weather, a tiny moth, and a nasty fungal disease are wreaking havoc on the cocoa crop. Ick! Those are a couple of things I don’t like hearing in the same sentence as my favorite snack food.

Apparently cocoa farming has become so

in chocolate. In other words, they take two things I like and turn them into one thing I don’t like at all. Would you put bubble gum in your chicken noodle soup or grape jelly on your pepperoni pizza? Not unless you were hellbent on wasting them all. I don’t know what can be done about the chocolate supply, but on the demand side I have an idea. Stop squandering it!

Putting chocolate on pickles and salami is like papering your walls with hundred dollar bills; it’s wasteful and not that great anyway. If you have chocolate to waste, give it to me. I’ll treat it like the precious commodity it is. Then I’ll eat it.

Preheat the oven’s broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange baguette slices in a single layer on the baking sheet. Place under the broiler until golden, about 2 minutes. Turn each slice over and broil 2 more minutes. Turn off broiler.

Turn each slice over again, drizzle with ol-ive oil. Push a chocolate piece into the cen-ter of each slice and return baking sheet to oven for 2 more minutes Remove from oven and lightly sprinkle each chocolate piece with sea salt.

A little bit of c h o c o l a t e can go a long way in your day to day cooking. And it can be used in un-usual ways to bring that “extra little something” to a com-mon dish. For example, the next time you make chili, or Sloppy Joes, add 1 square of dark chocolate, make sure it melts and you’ll be surprised at the very subtle flavors the chocolate adds to the dish. Most of you have probably eaten chocolate covered strawberries but try chocolate covered sundried tomatoes – they’re amazing (trust me)! And think of chocolate more as a spice or added flavor, not as a sweet. A bit of chocolate can really enhance many savory dishes.

I have a couple of very easy chocolate reci-

pes for you. One is an old Betty Crocker recipe for a chocolate cake cooked in a micro-wave. Another is an unusual savory way to enjoy dark chocolate. And of course, the Red Velvet Cake cook-ie we all love .

tion, according to a study from an Italian university reported in The Journal of Sexual Medicine. Female participants who con-sumed at least 1 oz. of HQD Chocolate a day experienced more active libidos and better overall sexual function than those who didn’t indulge.

HQD Chocolate contains a com-pound called phenylethylamine (PEA), which releases the same mood-altering endorphins that flood our bodies during sex and intensify feelings of attraction between two people, says Lori Buckley, Psy.D, a certified sex therapist.

Due to the combination of its anti-inflammatory properties and antioxidants, HQD Chocolate also protects the skin, and because it contains phytoestrogens, con-suming HQD Chocolate will help ameliorate the effects of depleted estrogen levels in women, Psy-chology Today notes.

“There’s been a ‘chocolate revolu-tion,’ “said Alexandra Leaf, a self-described ’chocolate educator’. “There is an increasing interest in high-quality, handmade chocolates and sustain-able, effective cacao farming and harvesting methods. High percent-age cacao chocolate is now recognized as a functional food thanks to modern sci-ence rediscovering its health-sustaining benefits. Most appropriately, chocolate has returned to its Mesoameri-can roots.” It seems that the Aztecs were right all along about the “food of the gods”. As with any-thing in life, enjoy in balance.

BHW

As early as the Aztecs, the cocoa bean was widely known for its many fortifying and revitalizing qualities. Unfortunately, when sugar became the main ingredient around the early 1900s, the health benefits of chocolate took a nose dive. So, if you are seeking to benefit from your indulgence, choose only the highest quality dark choc-olate. We have heard much about HQD Chocolate, but what is it?

1) High cocoa (or cacao) content: 70% or more (80-90%) is best. 2) No Trans Fats: Make sure to read labels, because partially-hydrogenated oils are a scientifically proven cause of disease-pro-ducing inflammation.3) Fair Trade: Reduce poverty with this choice (plus, many think it tastes better).

HQD chocolate has over 40 known health benefits! Here are some of the most valuable:

Brain and Heart HealthResearch presented at the 2014 National Meeting of the American Chemical Soci-ety (ACS) discovered that your gut bacte-ria breaks down the components in dark chocolate, turning them into anti-inflam-matory compounds that fight heart dis-ease. The antioxidants in HQD Chocolate also help to protect against brain degen-eration.

WHY WE NEED CHOCOLATE Cacahuatl (a chocolate drink made

from raw cocoa bean) became a popular among the Aztec up-per classes. It was also a known

restorative, medicinal revitalizer, and abettor of longevity.

Chocolate is discovered to stimu-late the healthy functioning of the

spleen and digestion. Chocolate is also condemned as inflamer of

passions and monks are urged not to drink it.

Marie Antoinette arrived at Versailles with her very own

chocolate maker. He invented new recipes and mixed the

chocolate with orange blossom and sweet

almond.

Chocolate in bar form arrived with the industrial revolu-

tion and new processing techniques. Chocolate becomes affordable to

the masses.

With the explosion of fair trade cacao

farmers teaming up with high quality dark chocolate brands, the

health benefits of high quality dark chocolate

were once again being looked at and confirmed through various studies

by leading health researchers.
