Dr. Red Shoe's Story

You deserve happiness.

Margarita Gurri, PhD, CSP—Misbehavior Expert solves people problems.

As a refugee from Cuba, Dr. Red Shoe noticed that how we think, feel, and act matters.

Happiness is a choice. It cannot be a goal. It is the byproduct of making good choices which honor our values and our sense of mission in life.

Why the Red Shoes? When the Gurri family fled communist Cuba for the USA, they were allowed only one suitcase for the family.  Mother Beba wore fashionable red shoes, leaving as she lived, her way. For four-year-old Margarita, those red shoes magically transformed the power of conflict with courage, humor, and grace.
