Healthy Relationship Activist Jennifer Tardy Launches Virtual Book Tour to Promote New Book (July 26-Aug.1)
Charlotte, NC – Healthy Relationship Activist, Author and Relationship Blogger, Jennifer Tardy, will be on tour from July 26 -August 1, 2010 to promote her debut book, His Ingredient Label: A Woman’s Guide to Recognizing a Junk Food Man. The tour, which will be held virtually, will make stops at a number of popular blogs, websites and other online destinations. Tardy will hold several giveaways and contests; she will also be available to answer burning relationship questions, respond to reader comments and ultimately promote healthy relationships—of all types.
In His Ingredient Label, Tardy shows readers how men are like foods to which one can become addicted if you don’t control yourself. The book helps readers to recognize how one’s own decision-making can be the first step to a healthier relationship and demonstrates how to recognize the true character of a man by investigating what he is made of. This is the first volume in the Forever Tardy, but Never Late Collection.
Dorothy Lafrinere of WomensSelfEsteem.com highly recommends Tardy’s work. “His Ingredient Label is an excellent knowledge base and resource for all women, single or otherwise, in the fact that we never graduate from the school of life including relationships,” says Lafrinere “ It has been proven over time that we learn more effectively by example…let this book be your example to learn from. Awareness, preparation and knowledge have always been the keys to any successful relationship.”
Some of the scheduled stops on the virtual tour include a profile on “Another Writer’s Block” (www.onikapascal.com) with Poet/Author Onika Pascal, a video interview on “The Fresh” (www.meetthefresh,com), a contest and giveaway on www.mingleberry.com and a guest blog post on www.avenue1online.com. Starting July 26, each morning of the tour Tardy will announce her stops for day on both her Twitter (www.twitter.com/jtardy26) and Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/HisIngredientLabel) accounts. There will be opportunities to purchase (and even win) an autographed copy of His Ingredient Label: A Woman’s Guide to Recognizing a Junk Food Man and get details about Tardy’s upcoming summer release: Good Job, Great Guy: Finding & Attracting the Man of Your Dreams–the Boss’s Way. For more detailed information and full tour schedule, visit www.jennifertardy.com.

Starting August 2010 Jennifer Tardy says: Lunch is ON ME™
The following message is from Healthy Relationship Activist and Author Jennifer Tardy about her new teleseminar, Lunch is ON ME™
- Healthy Relationship Activist Jennifer Tardy
“I am very excited and blessed to be a part of a movement that is so much larger than anything I’ve ever experienced. I hope that you are too!” – jm tardy
Our Healthy Relationship Activism Movement will be spearheaded with our launch of Lunch is ON ME™. I will be your host. Join me for a 30 minute engaging and inspiring telephone conversation (i.e. teleseminar) during your lunch hour every Wednesday in August. Not only will you be able to eat your lunch while listening in, but you will also be emotionally filled with the stimulation and motivation that we typically crave by lunchtime in order to make it through the day—or week, for that matter.
Our topics will cover any and EVERYTHING related to relationships! We’ll start off with a tip of the week, move into the keynote presentation, and finally we’ll open the call up for questions/comments. This will all happen within 30 minutes, although we will have an allotted 1 hour in the instance that there are questions/comments. Miss the call one week—no worries. All calls will be recorded. You will be able to also listen at your leisure at a later time, if needed.
During the month of August, I want to introduce myself to you and give you a chance to hear my teleseminars for an ENTIRE MONTH in order to see if this is something to which you would be interested participating in moving forward. With that said, the entire month of August is FREE! So, REALLY–Lunch is ON ME™.
After August, you’ll have a chance to become a member of the Lunch is ON ME™ weekly teleseminar series. Follow this link for more details: http://www.jennifertardy.com/jennifertardy/lunch-me%E2%84%A2
In the meantime – SIGN UP! Simply send me an email at me@jennifertardy.com, or on my “contact me” page on my website. I’ll send you the proper dial in information at that time.

Jennifer Tardy- “Healthy Relationship Activist”
As a former native of Hurt, Virginia, J. M. Tardy grew up like any small-town girl. Curious and insightful, she has always been very curious about the big world around her. She graduated from Gretna High School and then went on to receive both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Virginia Tech, in Blacksburg, Virginia. She currently resides in Charlotte, North Carolina, where she works in the nuclear industry as a human resources professional. As an HR professional, her research has long been in understanding the behaviors of adults in the workplace. She also sources and attracts the best and the brightest talent. Her next goal is to further her behavioral research while attaining her Ph.D.
It wasn’t until she realized that many of the single women that she knew seemed to be asking the same relationship questions, going through the same experiences, and justifying their actions with the same reasoning that she was able to make sense out of her own life experiences. It wasn’t until recently that she even knew what her gift was: encouraging healthy relationships and healing broken hearts.
Her books stem from her personal research and the stories told by others. She wants each volume to grow as she grows and experiences new challenges in life. She knew that she had found the secret to healing a broken heart, but didn’t believe it was fair to just share this information with her girlfriends; she wants to share it with the world; and with this collection of books, she is sharing it with you.
