I recently accepted The Enterprising Women of the Year Award. While attending the Enterprising Women conference in Florida, I got a better understanding of what defines an Enterprising Woman.
They are incredibly successful in business. They nurture others and are tenacious beyond measure. But that is not the hallmark of what I found in common among these Enterprising Women.
These women are masterful at overcoming challenging obstacles. Some I spoke to were once single parents – either divorced or the death of a spouse. These terrible tragedies at the time seemed heartbreaking to these women while it was happening. But they kept their faith – in themselves and believed that everything will work out. They instinctively knew that even though life seemed bleak, there was a greater purpose calling them. And now, the same women are happy – in new relationships, businesses, families, philanthropies, and life experiences.
The message for us all – but especially for those who intend to be (or raise) an Enterprising Woman, is this: The universe may have some great plans in store for you and is guiding you in that direction. Dream big dreams and get aligned with what you were meant to do and contribute to this world.
Thank you to Marina Ilari for nominating me and the many remarkable women I connected with.
