Assist Bethany in Making Strip Up, LTD a Reality

Thank you for your interest in this project! As you may know, starting a non-profit organization is a lengthy and very expensive process. Please do not misunderstand. This project is not a legal entity as of yet and I make no claims that it is. I am, however stating that we are working with an attorney who does not work for free. I am incurring the cost of this project alone. Any and all donations will be put into an account solely designated for the legal fees associated with this project. These funds will not be utilized for any other purpose other than the legal fees associated with the start up and federal approval of Strip Up, LTD. These donations are not tax deductible as the federal approval for a 501-c3 entity has not been finalized. Below you will find the mission statement for the future non-profit I hope to have approved in the coming months.

Once again, thank you for your interest and feel free to email any questions or concerns you may have.

With Respect,
Bethany St. James

“Don’t Ask If Ya Don’t Wanna Know!”


1 Comment

 To say that I am beaming with pride over the new Advice section of my site is putting it mildly! I have received so many incredible questions and I can’t wait to answer all of them! Keep them coming!

However, I do need to warn those of you who submit questions to me. I am brutally honest and I don’t plan to hold back. I see things from a very different perspective than most people that I’ve come across and I plan to allow that to carry over in my column. I was raised to believe that honesty is important in every aspect of life. In my opinion, the only thing gained by not telling the truth is mistrust and misdirection. My intent is never to offend anyone but, only to give you a real, true no holds barred answer from my heart. My goal with this column is to empower men and women from all walks of life to look at their lives and situations a bit differently.

I’ve found that most of the advice columns I have read give cookie cutter answers that don’t get to the meat of the problem and diligently strive to not offend anyone. I call those “acquaintance answers.” Acquaintance answers are designed to just coddle you and make you feel better without actually taking any kind of a stance. Wait a minute….doesn’t that sound an awful lot like most of the presidential debates? Hmmm….

Anyway, I promise you that my column is not going to follow suit! Don’t get me wrong – my intent is certainly not to be controversial or harsh for the sake of gaining publicity or notoriety. I think we can all attest that I despise that kind of thing! But, I will be giving the bare bones, honest truth as I see it. So, as my very entertaining Father always says, “Then, whad’ya ask me for?! By God, don’t ask me if you don’t want the truth! You asked me – so, I’m gonna tell ya!” I suppose you can clearly see where I get it from, huh?!

With Friendship and Respect,

Beth =)
