I met with Ann Webb of Ideal Life Vision last week and was thrilled to hear her results by being a part of Biz Divas. She has received over 10 new clients in addition to creating amazing friendships. I love hearing this success. Thank you Ann for being a part of Biz Divas.
Ann does amazing work with entrepreneurs in a process called Ideal Life Vision. This process supports you with getting absolutely clear with your goals and dreams and you start manifesting. I’ve been amazed at what I’ve created using her process. It’s a tool that I use every day. Are you ready to play bigger? Then enroll in Ann’s next workshop. Not in Utah? It’s okay because she is about to start her teleconference workshops!

Check out Ideal Life Vision and play bigger than ever before.
Do you ever find yourself saying any of these phrases?
• “I’m sorry, but I think…”
• “I’m sorry you have to do this, but…”
• “I’m sorry to bother you with…”
• “I’m sorry, this might not be exactly what you wanted…”
It’s a fact that women apologize more frequently than men. Many times we do it just to be polite. But is it diminishing our credibility? Our power? Yes.
A talented member of my team constantly apologizes, even for situations she has no knowledge about and no control over. Another young woman, who had a different opinion from the rest of our group, began her sentence during a meeting with, “I’m sorry, but I think we could do it this way.” Just like that, she gave her power away. She weakened her point with that little word.
While “I’m sorry” CAN be very meaningful, and it should be set aside for the moments when you want to correct a situation—something you did that hurt someone’s feelings or a mistake you made—overusing the word has a diminishing effect. What happens when you really are sorry for something? Will the person on the receiving end know you mean it?
Overusing apologies makes them lose their meaning. Limit the s-word in your vocabulary. Start using strong phrases. If you bump into someone, say, “Excuse me.” Know that it’s OK to have a different opinion and express it. Don’t apologize for the things you like or don’t. And most of all, don’t use “sorry” as your linguistic crutch. You can overcome this self-effacing mechanism by being conscious of it.

Tired of meeting clients or prospects in coffee shops? Scared about the cost of leasing office space? The answer? Betaloft! Utah’s newest coworking community downtown.
I am so excited to introduce Biz Divas to Betaloft, the newest Coworking Community in Utah. Drew Tyler, the owner, supports a community of entrepreneurs who collaborate and build a strong community with each other. If you have ever wanted an amazing office space but couldn’t afford it yet while you build your business, or simply don’t want to spend so much money on an office space, Betaloft is perfect. It’s downtown, it’s an amazing space and the prices are unbelievable. Register to attend Biz Divas before the seats fill up!
On Tuesday, I attended the Betaloft open house for their official grand opening and was so impressed. The treats were provided by Sugared Magnolia and it was brilliant. (You will LOVE their website) Floral decor by Persimmon Floral, also brilliant. You can see their work on the video below. Trust me when I say that you have got to check out this space. They have permanent office space or space you can use periodically throughout the month. They will fill up fast so check it out today.

Another AMAZING service they offer is if you want to do professionally recorded pod casts or videos they have a studio onsite. For four 90-minute sessions, the price is less than $150. And just a tiny bit more if you want their professionals to run the recording and video equipment! Why are the prices so reasonable? Because Drew, the owner, loves video production and has built his career supporting professionals and corporations with their video production needs. When you love what you do, it’s easy to pass on savings to people who love your work! It is incredible and I can’t wait to work with them for Biz Divas and Illuminated Woman videos and podcasts.

In February 2008, I co-founded the A-List Biz Divas with Auretha Callison because I am passionate about inspiring and empowering women to be fabulous in all areas of their lives, including their business. I have been in marketing communications for almost a decade now and have learned a lot working for companies and doing freelance work. I love what I do and I love it even more when I share it with other business women who are eager and willing to play big and totally go for it. Stay tuned for announcements and updates on the A-List Biz Divas and how we are all improving our businesses!
To Our Fabulous Success!
