Nominated for “Successful Achievements” Award 2015 VOWW.TV

I was asked by the Founder of Voices of Women Worldwide to write a short summary of what I achieved in 2014 that I am proud of for their syndicated networks of about 10,000 websites empowering women worldwide.

At first I could not work out why I was hesitant to do it and then I realised, there was a part of me that felt slightly exhausted thinking about the last 12 months. But as my Gen Z neighbor said, “I get inspired just hearing about the fact that you were asked to do these things, so you can’t just leave it !”

Lol. I suggested for her to do it too. So she said she would do it as Snapchats. I said, “Alright, whatever works for you. Honestly, I think its meant to be the thought that counts.”

So Ladies, 2014, these were my accomplishments I’m proud of, personally, professional, creative and spiritual in bullet points (so it is easier to make them into Snapchats! haha).

Happy Holidays!
