Vibrant Woman's Conference

Firstly, Happy English Mothers Day. Feels odd not seeing my daughters and own Mum today. Luckily I'm able to share Josephine's Mum Beth, we will be taking her for dinner this evening.

The Vibrant Woman's Conference has been the working highlight of the trip so far. There were approx 300 women in attendance and 6 great speakers, my favourites were Sonia Ricotti and Monica Wofford.

Sonia a Canadian, came over to the audience as genuine and sincere and had a very interesting story to tell about her own life and how the Law of Attraction works for her. For those of you that haven't read the bestselling book or watched the film 'The Secret', the universal law of attraction of like attracts like is what it is all about. Sonia was inspired to write a book explaining the law of attraction in an 11 step, simple format after watching the film. Sonia went on to tell stories of the law of attraction working in all areas of hers and other peoples lives. A particularly poignant moment was the reading of a letter from Samantha which moved everyone present.

I read 'The Secret' myself approx 2 years ago and another Law of Attraction book, I have also read the Diana Cooper Universal Laws of Life book and I do believe in it as I have been amazed at the coincidences that have happened in my life and the lovely people I have met by chance that have made a difference to me particularly in the past 2 years. Of course I don't believe in chance or coincidence any more, simply that some stuff is just meant to be. Oh that sounds all a bit deep! Anyway, Sonia, thanks for signing my copy of your book, I have almost finished it!

Monica Wofford, by contrast has a group of 'contagious companies', her keynote was about contagious confidence. Interestingly, there were technical problems and Monica's microphone failed. Monica continued to bound around the room delivering her keynote absolutely brimming with confidence without a mike, she simply made large gestures and talked louder. The content of the keynote was pretty similar to the stuff Allison and I deliver on confidence and helped to validate the direction our business has taken. I also made a connection with the lovely Bernice, Monica's personal assistant, a fellow Brit from Oxford originally and who now lives in Orlando. Again I loved Monica's style of delivery and her sense of fun and her personality shone through. Thanks to Monica for the tips you gave me, signing your books and as discussed with Monica and Bernice, we would love to meet up in England soon. If we can work together all the better!

I have a whole array of books and CD's to read and listen to from yesterday, so I must dash and do just that, in the sunshine of course, sunny smiles Lou x
