Women in Business............. #summer2014 #MECKids #MomNMe #StampOnStyle

This is a whole series devoted to the memories of a wonderful Washington DC summer. The weather was near perfect, at least for Washington. I've been here all of my life, 98 to 100 degrees with 100% humidity is NORMAL in Washington from May through the first of  September. But not the #summerof2014, oh no this year the weather was out of this world gorgeous!!! Beautiful blue skies and a warm breezes that waff gently through the air. We had a few blazing days but who's complaining when its not 20 straight days of Code Red weather. Needless to say it contributed to lots of outdoor events and fun times.

One particular outing will always ring special for me because I had the pleasure of being with some of my most favorite gals. Fran Dean-Bishop did an awesome mentor day to honor startups, soloprenuers, women in business and what it means to pay it forward. An award winning Woman In Business with a 20 plus year successful track record in the Washington, DC Metro area, Fran Dean-Bishop honored Olisi Johnson with Stamp On Style for her tenacity, blaze of new trails and of course style and grace.

This was wonderful workshop that covered everything from budgeting, marketing, goal setting, endurance methods, dreams and brainstorming. I was grateful to be a contributor but I also took away new ideas and a renewed spark of energy for my own endeavors. It was definitely Diva approved!! Complete with champagne, a brunch that wouldn't wait, breathtaking beautiful views of the water and topped off with a limousine that stopped at fabulous boutiques all over Northern Virginia. Stamp On Style #stamped the ladies with her fashion sense. Everyone left the event prepared to forge new paths and determined to continue to be successful women in business.  What a phenomenal way to spend Sunday with incredibly smart and beautiful women. 

Now that Fall is upon us and it's time for another summit for DC Women in Business. We are currently in the planning stages with Visionary Properties, Stamp On Style, MECKids, Mom-N-Me and more amazing women so stay tuned for snippets from our next female think tank! (smile) Just thinking about it gets me excited. If you would like to join our next event please inbox me and I will be sure to put you on our list of invitees.
