Networking is hardly a new idea in the business community. However, in the current economic climate, networking is more important than ever. Female entrepreneurs often underestimate the importance of networking. It is easy to imagine a male business person actively selling their business to anyone who will listen.
Women often shy away form this kind of behavior because they do not want to seem like they are boasting or over selling their accomplishments and abilities. The opposite is often true: They may, in fact, be under selling themselves. Usually, this is because they do not feel qualified or confident enough to share what they have to offer. It is especially important for women who own their own businesses to get together with other female entrepreneurs for precisely this reason. Meeting other women can help them to learn confidence and how to share their ideas with the world.
Women who have more experience navigating the business community can give valuable advice and support to those who are just starting out. Being able to share ideas and get feedback can be the difference between success and failure for a women owned business. Some of the benefits of networking are more immediate and practical. Networking can lead to referrals and increased business. People tend to patronize and recommend businesses that have a personal relationship with. For this reason, face-to-face networking is especially effective at growing sales and building trust in the community.

A client recently asked me ‘how would she know when she was finally successful.’ I explained that success means different things to each of us. To achieve success, you must define what it signifies. Success is a journey! As we sail through life, we encounter many obstacles along the way. Imagine yourself sailing the high seas; navigating your ship as it sails through calm waters. At times, it will buck in storms. If you are determined to stay the course, you must periodically adjust your navigational instruments and adjust when problems arise.
As you continue your journey, envision the serene, tranquil and calm blue water with sea gulls flying above, a light house in the far distance and several boats sailing calmly with the waves; here are 4 ways to navigate to your port of dreams! Read more...

Chef Amadeus to be featured as a special guest chef
at Kitchen Engine
Spokane, Washington, November 12th, 2011 - For the average person, the idea of cooking is an unimaginable task, just wrapping your mind around traffic to the grocery store is daunting. Now take the average experience away and add a timed contest in unusual conditions and be forced to cook. Most of us would fail but not the Winner of Food Network's Extreme Chef Episode 1 Season 1, "Mexican Showdown." Cooking extreme is just another day at the office for Chef Amadeus who will be a featured chef at the Kitchen Engine in Spokane, Washington, December 6th 2011.

Chef believes Spokane is a city with a great pallet and will appreciate the style of cooking he brings to the table. Unlike most Chefs, Chef Amadeus comes with his own specialized brand of salt-free spices and even bigger personality to match. Chef's motto is to engage the audience visually, tastefully, and provide a "bumping good time."
The Kitchen Engine was opened August 3, 2006 by the Eric Fickle and family. Eric and his partners brought an open mind and lots of creativity to store. Their goal was to furnish all chefs, cooks and want to be cooks with the very best in kitchen gadgets, cookware and appliances. The Kitchen Engine hosts, monthly events that include live cooking classes and demos. Chef Amadeus will be featured in the December 2011 monthly event.

Good morning!
I'm sharing what I'm up to with continuing my dynasty.
03 December 2011, 5 Loaves and 2 Fish, (our home-based dessert catering service), will be showcasing tasty treats at the Holiday Bazaar in Raleigh, North Carolina!
I am currently working towards the completion of "My Heart Speaks...of Boys and a Girl," the 2nd installment of the series. The goal is to have it submitted to Mocha Writer, editor, by 30 November 2011; would anyone care to be that "push?"
Networking and connecting in real life has been so motivating and I am looking forward to doing more.
What's up with you?

So, on this unique day, take the time to analyze the year so far in your personal life and in your business. The year is almost over. Look back to your 2011 New Year resolutions and see what you've stuck to, accomplished or still working on. Remember to stay motivated in all you're doing. If the business ideas you had at the beginning of the year, still aren't in fruition, 'put yourself in drive' and do all you can to have it up by the beginning of 2012. Look at the goals you set for yourself and your business and do all you can to accomplish one of them by the end of 2011. You still have time! Celebrate this unique day in reflection and remember, YOU have to make a move to see change.
