SUMMARY:Women in Entrepreneurship Day: Workshop With Julie Ellis
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:BIG GORGEOUS GOALS\nHOW BOLD WOMEN ACHIEVE GREAT THINGS\n \nWe
  have been inundated with ways to plan and set goals. We have tried\ncount
 less systems and tracked outcomes. We long for more success\, more\ndreams
 \, and bigger goals - not another day of checking things off the\nlist.\n
  \nWe want more. As women\, we are used to wearing many hats in our lives
 :\nentrepreneur\, executive\, caregiver\, household CEO\, friend\, mother\
 , and\ndaughter.  Stepping out and setting Big Gorgeous Goals isn’t alw
 ays\nat the top of our to-do list. We are moving at warp speed\, yet it\nr
 emains unclear whether the goals we pursue will ultimately take us to\nour
  desired destination.\n \nIn setting\, embracing\, and pursuing Big Gorge
 ous Goals\, we venture\noutside our comfort zone to realize our full poten
 tial.\n \nCome and learn why stepping into your magnificence is worth eve
 ry\nminute of your time. You will understand why shedding doubts and\nchas
 ing goals\, even when others claim they are impossible\, is worth\nevery b
 it of the process.  Julie shares her experiences growing a\nmom-inspired
  basement start-up label company into an international\nsensation\, eventu
 ally being acquired by a giant in her industry.\n \nJulie shares stories 
 and lessons on why getting uncomfortable is worth\nit\, leveraging your ne
 twork\, and saying no to embrace a strategic\nyes.  You’ll be inspired
  to strive for greatness\, viewing\nobstacles as opportunities.\n \nAre y
 ou ready to embrace big gorgeous goals and step into your\nmagnificence?\
 n\nJoin us on November 21 at noon for this workshop at the Conrad School\
