CAREER

As of today, I’m officially on vacation!

Once upon a time, when things were getting a bit rough, someone suggested to me that we run away together to Paris.

It was an extremely romantic notion and for a fleeting moment, thoughts of sitting in a café for the rest of my life eating pain au chocolat (aka chocolate croissants) sounded mighty tempting (and delicious).

So, I finally did it. I attended my first “Tweet Up!” What is a Tweet Up, you might ask? A Tweet Up is when the people you have connected with on Twitter, actually MEET UP! Like, in real life.

So the question is, how do you stay motivated working during the beautiful summer months?

Yup! We did it ladies!! Just got word last night.

Women On The Fence was just named THE TOP 100 WEBSITES FOR WOMEN 2011.

I cried. I’ll admit it. All the hard work. All the effort. I poured my heart out, as did my incredible team of guest bloggers. You read with no judgement. I can’t thank you enough for sticking with me.

What an honor to be in the company of such brilliant women. Here is the link to the article… http://www.forbes.com/2011/06/23/100-best-web-sites-for-women-blogs-2011.html

We are redoing the WOTF logo. The current one just does not fit with the site anymore, and I recognize that. You have given me your incredible input on our first run of logo options on Facebook and Twitter, and I have listened to all your suggestions.

If you’ve been following my Twitter stream or Facebook fan page over the past few days, you know that I was in Boston over the weekend. I was thrilled when Tory Johnson, workplace correspondent on Good Morning America asked me to come and speak to the female entrepreneurs of Boston, at The Spark and Hustle Tour. Spark and Hustle, you may ask?

In a nutshell… you bring the SPARK, and I’ll teach you how to HUSTLE. Catchy right? Years ago, Tory experienced something unfortunately too many working women face today. Check out Tory on CBS’s The Talk, and see how she turned disappointment into triumph. Tory’s energy is INFECTIOUS.

I have been keeping it quiet for the past few months, but I am THRILLED to officially announce that I am the 2011 Spokesperson For National Entrepreneurship Day! This is so exciting for an entrepreneur like myself, who eats, sleeps and breathes entrepreneurship, and who always loves to teach and inspire people to take the dive themselves.

This year, the date is November 16, 2011. Mark your calendars!!

So when I told my friends I was off to New Orleans to speak at…
