Do you have an inkling that if you were to completely believe in yourself - then everything you dream of would come to fruition. You keep telling yourself "If I could just muster up that first belief part - then naturally the second would follow".

Well! My suggestion would be to stop trying to develop that "faith in yourself" part in seclusion. Instead consider reaching out and getting warm support from enthusiastic women whom have been where you are - Exactly where you are today. Basically attend the 6th Annual "Women with Vision Conference & Expo" scheduled for September 16th and to be held at the Cranberry Resort. For more info go to: www.womenwithvision.ca

I personally hit my first business transition building "Prime Time" (my company) around five years ago. I was struggling and admittedly confused. Lorraine Leslie, founder of "Women with Vision"T Magazine and organizer of the conference assured me that it was okay to just be me and it was okay to let everyone know just who I was. Lorraine is a very understanding and compassionate person - more importantly she's a true leader and a great role model.

Lorraine Leslie's Magazine and network over the past five years have made a terrific contribution to scores of women struggling with belief in themselves. It all began with a one-page black and white newsletter (distribution 50) as the result of a fundraising event organized in October of 1999 called - Women with Vision! T That spurred the formation of "Women with Vision Networking Luncheon Chapters" across Ontario and now an 88-page full colour glossy magazine is distributed throughout the GTA (Greater Toronto Area), the Georgian Triangle, as well as, internationally.

Lorraine's vision has grown quickly as a result of her dedication to educate and enhance women's endeavors in both business and in their daily lives. Women from all walks of life have joined the movement by attending her networking luncheons and conferences. The empowerment and mutual respect received through her "District Coordinators" continues to support, motivate, inspire and encourage women to take their ideas, businesses and personal lives to the next level.

It is no surprise to those of us who know her that Lorraine is a nominee for The Royal Bank of Canada Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of 2005 as well as a nominee for The Bell Trail Blazer Award.

Lorraine:

I read the May-June and July-August issues of Women with Vision Magazine.

I read each one from back to front -that's how I always read my mags- and was very impressed by the content. The articles were not only informative, but very interesting and inspiring. Well done!! We need more of that in the world we live in. I look forward to your next issue, and next and next...

In closing, I would like to add that your ads are very well laid out and eye-catching. I am hoping to do business with you in the near future.

Kind regards,
