My heart is full.
What an amazing, inspiring weekend with women from 22 states and Canada at our annual Women on Fire Retreat held this year in Chicago!

Next week I’ll say more about what it was like to be in the energy of all these dynamic, creative, supportive women who are making a difference in the world.
But right now, those of us on the East Coast are preparing for the effects of Hurricane Sandy, and I am sending love and hope for everyone’s safety.
Meanwhile, please join us in a few Women on Fire moments from the weekend! More pictures next week.

The wise and talented Sophfronia Scott, publisher of the next Women on Fire book, shared our plans for inviting co-authors to participate. Very exciting!
Kim Davis, Dana Frost, Nancy Neal and Cindy Clendenin listen intently to Margo Frazier sharing what she is “on fire” about in her life!
Blue Women Group? Not exactly! Dreaming Big was this year’s Retreat theme. Everyone received a blue-gel mask to promote relaxation, better sleep, good dreams!

To everyone who participated in this powerful, engaging, life-changing Retreat, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Safe travels home. And stay tuned for next year’s Retreat date and city!
If you haven’t attended a Women on Fire event, I hope you will soon. No better way to fill your cup:-)
