testimonials
I loved Marie and Kathleen - great facilitators and worked really well together. They complimented each other well and were really candid when sharing their own personal stories (encouraged us to do the same with each other - mirror neurons!!) LOVED the guided meditation...thanks for sharing after. Food was magnificent, of course. 1 on 1 coaching was fantastic and super helpful.

So much about this event came together perfectly to make it awesome. The meditation and networking activity was fun and creative… Marie and Kathleen did a fantastic job to keep the event on track and keep us focused with mini-consultations, and we were able to do what we went there to do - create our Vision Boards and make connections!
- Charlene
I loved being in a room with so many like-minded women! Just that alone was very inspiring… I liked the suggestions for different types of vision boards you could do. The workbooks were great; helped review the year and new goals. The soap is great! Thought the event was a reasonable price; gives you an idea if you want to have ongoing consulting without committing a huge amount up front.

Marketing was consistent and timely... Facilitators were great, knowledgeable and warm. The time blocking info was a good and is a necessary exercise for us all.

The personal time with each professional was valuable. Sharing insight and life experiences with each of the ladies helped me to not feel alone in my struggles and pursuit for a better vision of my life.

FAQ
Can I invite a friend?
Absolutely! All women of color are welcome. You can forward the link to this page. Each participant does need to register separately, so make sure she reserves her spot before we sell out.
What should I wear?
Where your crafty pants - you know the ones that are super comfortable? We are going to be cutting, pasting and dreaming all day, not to mention chowing down on some great brunch fare, so dress comfortably. Leave the heels at home.
Can I register and only come to part of the event? Why is this vision board party so long?
While we would love to have you for any part of the day that you can join us, the full program does begin at 10am and includes tons of resources and exercises to aide you in creating your board and crafting your vision. This is some serious “me time” so don’t sell yourself short.

Nope. This event is for grown ladies only. Leave your kids at home and spend some time focused on you. You deserve it.
