Have a dream? Start a Girlfriend group!
May 3, 2008 – 6:35 pm
Big or small, dreams are passionate goals that can transform our lives. And, the people who help us in reaching them, are indispensible mentors and cheerleaders. In many cases, girlfriends are the ones who help us see and reach our dreams. And, when you bring a group of girlfriends together, with the goal of challenging and helping each other, magical things can happen.
I know. Several times in my life, as I was following my entrepreneurial goals, I found (or started) a gathering of like-minded women to help each other. Shown here are a few of my WE (women entrepreneurs) group. Each have different skills, experiences, personalities and passions. Our dreams and businesses are diverse, but our friendship and support for each other keep us together and actively stretching ourselves.
WE meet monthly to discuss our updates, challenges, achievements and goals. WE hold each other accountable and offer grace if we were not able to achieve what we had hoped. WE listen, cheer, share, brainstorm and support.
Meet my WE girlfriends: Tina (top left) is the owner of Casa DeLorenzo – and makes exquisite custom pillows, as well as offering Interior Design Services. Jennifer is the Director of Beaded Hope – Beaded Hope’s mission is to fight HIV/AIDS one person at a time by providing South Africans with the opportunity to earn an income, support their families and nurture their creativity while preserving age-old beadworking traditions.* (Jennifer – Sorry for the closed eyes photo!) Judy is a writer with lots of experience, promise and ideas for PublishSmart. Joyce (bottom right) is opening an online store of beautiful heirloom clothes and gifts for children – watch for HeirloomsToBe.com!
Do you have dreams? Aspirations? Creative ideas you’d love to pursue? You don’t need to go it alone – bring along your girlfriends! Start a girlfriend group and dream together. Share the successes and struggles, joys and jolts along the way. But you’ll love the company along with you on the journey!
NOTE: Jennifer also ’stars’ in our upcoming Girlfriendology video which should be posted early next week. However, in the meantime, she is offering a discount on BeadedHope.com for Girlfriendology girlfriends! Just enter “GOGIRL” in the discount code for 15% off until May 15th. Thanks Jennifer!

Just a quick Thank You to a Girlfriend
March 14, 2008 – 12:08 am
At the very end of the work day today, something happened that really hurt me. I packed up my stuff and headed for home, still playing over the scenario in my mind. Normally, I would have arrived home and blown off a little steam by telling my husband the situation but today I had somewhere to go and somewhere that I needed to be mindfully present. My afterwork plans were very important to me on a personal level that warranted that I be completely engaged.
On the drive home, I called Tina. My friend Tina gets me. She knows my dreams and believes in me (and them). She maintains focus on the important things in life and helps me to strive for them too. Although she’d never believe it, she mentors me when I deal with important issues and cares about even the silly, little things in my life.
All in the course of a five minute call, I had a better outlook on things and an understanding of how petty the event was that happened at work. So many things are so much more important. Things like love, friendship, caring for others. Things like friends who believe in me and who listen and care.
Thanks Tina. On my drive home, you helped me steer clear of the petty issues and aim for the big stuff that matters, like dreams, hope, love.
Do you have a friend that can cheer you up and remind you of the important things in life? Are you that kind of friend to a girlfriend? Be a girlfriend. Call a girlfriend. Show how thankful you are for your girlfriends!
p.s. If you’d like some designer pillows, check out my girlfriend Tina’s shop: Casa DeLorenzo.
