For the past five years, I have had the honor of partnering with Marcia Brixey, Author of The Money Therapist and Founder of Money Wise Women Educational Services to educate, empower and enlighten men and women around their finances. While the theme of the conference is about “money”, you will gain so so much more!
This conference is about bringing conscious awareness to your relationship with money and helping you go deeper as you connect with your inner passion and vision. You will leave this event empowered and connected to your heart, with practical action steps to improve your finances. Register for the conference today or visit the Money Wise Women Blog or attend a Money Wise Women Get Smart free call to take a next step in the direction of your dreams! And spread the word to increase awareness around this important event!
Here are some of the highlights of the event:

Chat with Women
Posted by: | Comments
I’ve heard it said that women use over 10,000 words per day so it’s very clear that we women “chat”! In fact, I’ve started my quota early today as I literally just got off the phone for my weekly chat with a dear friend and colleague of mine; we meet over-the-phone weekly at 5:30a to connect on a deeper level and support one another with accountability and encouragement.
One of the reasons we “chat with women” is that we are very relational beings. The way we connect is through conversation. Some times our dialogue is uplifting and life giving but if you’re like me, I often wish I could take back what I’ve said because it hasn’t been helpful, edifying or inspiring.
How about you? If you think about your “chats” how would you rate your conversations? Enriching? Draining?
In my experience with clients, the primary reason for disheartening conversation is women often operate and talk from an empty tank. When the car runs on fumes, eventually it’s going to stop and be ineffective. It’s the same for you; the level of “gas” in your internal tank directly impacts the quality of your presence and how you show up in the world, including what you share in your conversations.
Tomorrow I have the exciting opportunity to be interviewed on the radio with co-hosts Pam Gray and Rachel Alhadeff of Chat with Women. This is my “first time” on the radio “live”; what a great chance to use part of my word quota in a positive way. I invite you to join me as your support will inspire me and this could also be your chance to “refuel” your tanks. I believe the show will positively impact you by improving your energy and uplifting your tone of voice and the words you use in your conversations.
“Chat With Women is a company that is passionate about helping, developing, and inspiring women and the men who love them. We achieve this by waking up every day with a goal of using our experiences in business and life while following our core values of love, laughter and our life’s energy to maximize everyday both personally and professionally.”
So tune in tomorrow; if you’re in the Puget Sound region you can listen at KKNW 1150AM or online at Chat with Women. The show starts at 8:00a Pacific and my segment will be at 8:45a. You can also listen to the archived show after the fact.
And as you “chat with women” (and others today) remember your words can help or your words can hinder. Choose wisely!

Snippets of Wisdom
Posted by: | Comments
If this blog offered you snippets of wisdom that were concise and powerful, what would this mean to you? What do you consider “wisdom” that would add value as you streamline your life and work to achieve greater impact with less effort?
If you’re like me, you receive an overabundance of information daily. When it comes to meaningful blog content, I want to keep you engaged and coming back for more because your life and work are improving and your contribution to others is greater.
To enhance my service to you, I am curious about your impressions of all of the on-line content you read regularly. What is it about these other blogs and newsletters that has you actually read the content and come back for more?
What are some of the elements these writers include in their communication? Is their content thought provoking? Do they provide practical tips? Are they using other mediums like video and audio?
In addition to these specifics how has your life and work changed because of the on-line content you read? Is there anything you don’t like?
I’m on a mission to bring more value to you. It’s part of my strategy toward the launch of The Leadership Collaborative with my new business partner. While we aren’t ready to go live just yet, what I can share is that our company is about developing leaders to help you in “bringing business to life.”
If your business (or work) were brought to life, and life was brought to your business (or work), what content would offer you value and support you on a consistent basis?
I’d be grateful if you would take the time to share your comments with me at the blog. You can also provide your snippets of wisdom by e-mailing me directly.
Thanks for being a part of my team…T.E.A.M. = Together everyone achieves more!

The Momnificent Mom Club
Posted by: | Comments
Do you ever feel alone on your journey through motherhood, wishing you had a group of like-minded friends you could lean on for support? Do you find yourself looking around at other moms and their children, and then back at yourself and your children, only to wonder “Is this all normal?” There are so many answers and expectations out there for moms, and it’s sometimes hard to know what’s right for you, and your family. Some days we are laughing at the amazing things our children do and say. Other days we want to pull our hair out, or lock ourselves in the bathroom in the hopes of getting just a little bit of time alone.
The Momnificent!® Mom Club was developed so you can travel arm-in-arm with other moms on a similar path – moms who value personal and family growth; moms who are committed to living a life that feels “right” for them. You will receive ongoing teaching and support from leading mom experts, as well as regular inspiration and motivation to apply what you’ve learned and develop new habits. In the MMC, you will have an outlet to share stories of joy and heartfelt struggles, and receive validation for who you are, and where you’re at.
Are you ready to be empowered to reach your goals?
This Wednesday, December 1st, 2010, I am thrilled to be the Momnificent Mom Club expert as I partner with my friend and colleague Lori Radun, Mom Coach and Founder of Momnificent.
During this upcoming Momnificent Mom Club Monthly Teleclass I will share the following topic:
The 5 Keys to Unlocking Passion, Purpose and Prosperity
A Transformational Approach to Setting Goals
Do you set goals and forget about them? Are your goals exciting at first, but you don’t take continual action to achieve them? If you answered “yes” to either of these questions, join us as Shannon helps you discover a holistic and life-changing approach to setting meaningful and sustainable goals. Learn how to integrate your values which is one of the primary keys to this transformational goal setting approach.
