Dear Dotsie,
|
November15, 2009
I don't like the term mid-life
crisis. ~Pamela Stephenson I
was happy to see that I'm not the only one who doesn't like the
term midlife crisis. I've mentioned before that I prefer the term
midlife opportunity, and that's what we're offering the next several
months at the NABBW - Midlife Opportunities!
- Teleseminar - The Path from Job Loss to Re-employment
- Telesummit - Launching and Maintaining Successful Web Sites and Blogs Using Social Networking and Superb Search Engine Optimization
- Teleseminar and E-Course - 30 Days To A New You: Get What You Want Through Authentic Change
Our first offer is for people who either own or are launching Web sites. I'm often asked how www.BoomerWomenSpeak.com and www.NABBW.com rank well with search engine results so I'm planning to share this information with you. You're invited to the National Association of Baby Boomer Women's first-ever, four-hour power telesummit that shares our Web, Blog, Social Networking, and SEO secrets.
Launching and Maintaining Successful Web Sites and Blogs Using Social Networking and Superb Search Engine Optimization Thursday, November 19, 2009, from 12:00-2:00, and 3:00-5:00 (EST) Sponsored by our www.Boomerwomenspeak.com and www.NABBW.com Web team.
Your
online presence is probably the most important tool at your disposal
but if you don't know how to capitalize on it, you're paddling
upstream. The www.NABBW.com and www.BoomerWomenSpeak.com
Web team has put together a one day, four-hour (broken into two, 2-hour
sessions) power telesummit that will give our attendees the tricks of
the trade for building and maintaining excellent online status. We're
offering our listeners a way to cut years off the learning curve by
taking advantage of the expertise that will be offered to them. Join us on November 19 by registering today. I
have spent a small fortune to have what I've achieved online with two
sites ranked #1 on major search engines for "baby boomer women." I'm
willing to help you increase your online visibility by sharing what
I've learned since being online since 2002.
The NABBW
believes that this teleseminar will provide attendees with the
leading-edge knowledge necessary for the success they desire with their
online presence by bringing to the table invaluable SEO information,
Internet Marketing tricks of the trade, Blogging savvy, and Web site
design and development. Join us on November 19 by registering today.
The program will cost $199.00, and we promise to deliver content rich power hours. Learn more about it at this link.
If
you, or a friend or colleague, have, or want to launch a Web site or
blog that works for you when you are playing, then this is the
opportunity for you.
Our second offer is FREE to all members of the National Association of Baby Boomer Women only. Have you wanted to make certain life changes, but just haven't had the oomph to do so? If so, let the NABBW and Monica Magnetti, BFA/CPCC, author of 30 Days To A New You: Get What You Want Through Authentic Change be the help you've been waiting for. Be on the lookout for information about our December 15th teleseminar that will introduce you to the FREE
program we will offer beginning Monday, January 11th, 2010. It will be
a 30-day program which comes to your email box daily, for 30 days. This is our FREE gift to members of the NABBW only.
If you have friends who also want to make life changes, tell them to
join us now so they can get in on this excellent opportunity. Here's a
quote from Monica about living a life of happiness:
If
there is only one thing you take away from this "experience," let it be
this: you are the sole and exclusive creator of your own happiness. To
expect something or someone outside yourself to bring you happiness is
completely unrealistic, and it relinquishes your power.
The
sooner you surrender to this simple yet profound fact, the sooner you
will tap your own resources when life goes sideways. Being happy does
not mean you'll no longer experience unexpected turns; it means you'll
be able to dance with adversity, no matter which way life turns.
When we are happy, there is flow and synchronicity in our life. Happiness is the way, not the destination.
Blessings, Dotsie Bregel www.boomerwomenspeak.com www.nabbw.com |

Leanne Arent,
MS, CRC Retirement
Lifestyle Coach Compass Representative
For
the past 25 years, Leanne Arent, owner of Retire Your Way, LLC, has worked in
retirement planning and employee benefits with large and small colleges and
universities counseling employees on investments, saving for retirement and
planning retirement income distributions.
In
addition to a Bachelor's degree in Interpersonal and Group Communication

Coach Certification from Coach
Training Alliance. A Certified

finds time to knit, weave and read science fiction. Having lived in Utah and Michigan, and eventually
moving to Colorado in 1997, Leanne says Colorado is home and the
family hopes to never move again.
Leanne on Retirement and
Life Coaching . . .
I
know that through creative conversations, women in their prime can discover the
path to their ideal retirement. I work one on one with women and couples
helping them to create the retirement they have always dreamed about.
My mission in life is
to help women become the best they can be. I want to help them have more of what
they want, and at the same time, become that which they desire to be. I've
faced many obstacles in my life. In each situation there was someone there to
reach out and help me move through the tough times and triumph. The people
who helped me did so by believing in me when I was not so sure I believed in
myself!
It is so important to
have someone in your corner; someone who will listen to you, and someone who
will hold you accountable when necessary. This is what those key people
did for me, and it is what I want to do for you!
When we're in
transition, life feels chaotic, unsettled and scary. And it also gives us
the greatest opportunity to be at our most creative. Chaos begs for us to
find order, which means that we have the opportunity to create the life we
want. Remember that you can't do it alone! As humans we need community, we
need each other to get through the tough times, celebrate the victories, and
help each other along the way.

NABBW NOVEMBER TELESEMINAR BABY BOOMERS:
The Path from Job Loss to Re-Employment
with guests
Tuesday November 17, 2009 3:00 pm
(EST) Have you been caught up in a corporate downsizing? Maybe you've
recently lost your only means of income and don't know which way to
turn. If so, then you'll want to join us on this free teleseminar.
Boomer expert, veteran marketing executive, and author of, "The Year I Saved My (downsized) Soul: A Boomer Woman's Search for Meaning...and a Job, Carol Orsborn, Ph.D., who has appeared on Oprah and The Today Show, and in the pages of People Magazine, Wall Street Journal and The New York Times, will be one of the NABBW guests for our November teleseminar, Baby Boomers: The Path from Job Loss to Re-Employment.
She understands firsthand what Boomer Women face when caught up in a
downsizing. Carol will discuss the top five things one should do
immediately, and explain why attitude has so much to do with
successfully becoming employed again. Some Boomer Women do better,
attitude-wise than others.
Here are just a few of the topics that Dr. Orsborn will discuss:
- It's the economy that's broken, not you.
- There are times when all you can do is remember to breathe.
- Not everything that happens is a message. Sometimes a rat is only a rat.
- It is in the void that the status quo has the lightest
hold on us. Released from the constructs of our everyday life, we have
the least to lose. In the void, we are freest to make changes.
- You don't need an upbeat or even a brave attitude to make
progress. You just need discipline, putting resumes out, making phone
calls, following up leads and the like. This you can do happy or sad,
anxious or full of faith.
To further the discussion and to help Boomer Women everywhere with
specific "tools for employment," Amy Hoster, Business Development
Manager for www.wiserworker.com, who's been involved in the recruiting
industry since 1999, will discuss the following topics:
- The right kind of resume
- What to say and NOT say in an interview
- Optimizing your resume for results
- Job Fairs - how they can benefit you
Register for the call!
***The call-in information will be emailed to you prior to the teleseminar.***
By registering for this teleseminars, you will receive an email
reminder for the call and be added to our mailing list. You may
unsubscribe at any time.
