2009 Woman Entrepreneur of the Year Award Winner!
Wow! Have I got some news! On Thursday May 21st I was honored to received the 2009 Woman Entrepreneur of the Year Award for Emerging Business! What an amazing night! What an amazing time! I was nominated for the award in December and then I chose to go through the process of writing a submission that covered every aspect of my business. Once I entered my submission (in March) I had to wait until the end of April to find out if I would become a finalist – which I was happy to learn that I did! Then I had to wait until May 21st, the night of the awards dinner to find out if I would be one of the fortunate winners. What an incredible moment when I heard Sharon Philips from the Bra Bar and Panterie call my name …stunned, shocked, amazed, excited are just a few of the feelings that describe the moment but the biggest one was honored.
I am so honored to be among such incredible women – the nominees, the finalists and the winners. And I am so grateful to all the people who believed in me, supported me, trusted me and encouraged me. Thank you to all of my supporters! I am also extremely grateful for all of my clients – thank you to all of you for having the courage to follow your heart and play a bigger game in life – you are truly an inspiration for me and can’t wait to see where you will go next!
