It is my privilege to watch this famously successful business woman in action! Dorothy Briggs is the founder and publisher of "Womanition" and "Vavasaur" Magazines, profiling men and women in business, entrepreneurs with products and services to sell, along with "Divorce Magazine Canada" which is a resource for people going through a loss, separation or divorce. Womanition has become a CULTURE... a union of entrepreneurial women who are actively contributing to and improving Alberta's business environment in the following ways: Dorothy has become a "connector extraordinaire" for small business entrepreneurs by establishing FIVE NETWORKING GROUPS which operate monthly in the surrounding Edmonton areas, encouraging business connections throughout the various communities.  There are no membership fees or monthly dues.  The attendee pays when they attend making these meetings available to all socioeconomic groups. The "Womanition Bizbrigade - Leadership Conference" was created by Dorothy as a one day conference with a specific format and is held twice per year in Edmonton, reaching hundreds of people to educate, inspire and motivate! Ms. Briggs has initiated a 6 month Mentorship Program where mentors and proge'ge's are matched up to encourage commitment and accountability in today's female business leaders.  The program focuses on many areas of business with 'expert in their field' mentoring. The Womanition SuPEARLative Awards - "Pearls in her Profession", was created by Ms. Briggs to recognize outstanding Alberta Women in 6 categories.  These women will be honoured at a gala luncheon event February 28th, 2015 to celebrate their achievements. Dorothy Briggs' "Womanition Magazine", has won three platinum and three gold trophies in The Marcom Publishing Awards' category of "Design - Special Edition Magazine".  In 2014, the Womanition Magazine also won the GOLD Hermes International Award for Design and Advertising.

Do you find personal finances boring and wish you could have fun with it? This book has a unique theme, different from the other books about personal finances.  With the challenged economy and changing demography, nobody can afford not to think about finances.  The time that you could exclusively rely on the government or your employer to take care of your pension and health care has disappeared. Imagine you can get a black belt in managing your money and taking control of your personal finances.  The chapters of this book are divided like the color belts in martial arts.  In every chapter you will learn something new and get closer to the goal of having a good understanding about personal finances. Ali has been working in the financial industry in greater Vancouver since 2004 and holds professional financial planner and certified health insurance specialist designations. His achievements in martial arts include winning 2 silver medals for Canada in the World Martial Games and winning an award for outstanding contribution to martial arts from the World Karate Union Hall of Fame.

How often do you find a business owner sitting in his office at his desk these days? --- Probably seldom.

These business owners are managing their businesses via mobile systems. So are you! So, if this is the case, how are we going to reach them to let them know about our products and services?

Enroute, she discovers her true gift of inspiring others to awaken their innate ability to heal and to trust their intuition as they lead with their heart and discover their “YES!” for life. Sue Dumais   Today we discuss relationships and what the difference is between those that are no longer serving our hearts and those that are. Exactly what is a "heart led relationship"? Can everyone have a great relationship this way? How do we lead with our hearts? Do you have obligated or feared loyalties in your relationship? Sue says, "You either listen to the whispers that come up, or you wait for the 2x4." Ouch! Sue answers these and many other questions about relationships and how we can have great ones. There is a lot of work that goes into building a great relationship. Unfortunately, not everyone is willing to face themselves and the things they need to change personally, in order to help their relationships grow and flourish. When this happens, it is difficult for the relationship to progress beyond a certain point. What are the options available to us in this situation? Are we becoming a society of "disposable relationships"? What is meant by "Relationships are meant to heal your deepest wounds"?  Sue explains how we can learn to grow together...how to "go deep" and help heal ourselves and our relationships.  There is light at the end of the tunnel.
