My friend Louise and I try to get together every month to discuss our personal and business adventures. Louise and I met a few years ago – when our Passion Parties careers crossed paths. A year ago, I made the difficult decision to finish that chapter of my life and focus on my Arbonne business. Despite being part of different home based businesses now, we still love to witness each others empires grow. Our schedules don’t allow us to meet as often and consistently as we’d hope, but when we get together – the wine, ideas, and fun flows freely. It’s almost like our own personal counseling session – where we coach each other to strive for new goals and share success tips.
Since we both live full lives and have network marketing businesses, many of our diva dates are for business related appointments – consisting of home parties, appointments, and training meetings! Although we both “party” at night and on weekends for our businesses – it really doesn’t feel like work because we love what we do – however we both wanted an excuse to network with other dynamic divas off the clock. In July over a glass of vino, we decided to launch a monthly evening with our female friends. We concluded it should be enjoyed with wine and quickly came up a suitable acronym!
W.I.N.E.
Women of Intelligence Networking with Elegance
Last night, we hosted the first event at my home. It was fantastic – 7 women socializing, creating and rekindling friendships, and enjoying a girl’s night out.
We enjoyed a Crepe Bar and Asiago & Artichoke Dip (truly sinful!) as snacks.
Thanks to my marvelous husband for getting the house and dessert ready!! You’re truly amazing. Here John is putting wine charms on our glasses ;)
Next month – we hope to all bring a friend or two and expand our W.I.N.E. Club for more ladies to enjoy.
If you’re in southern Alberta and would like to join us the 3rd Wednesday of the month – please let us know. We created a Facebook group to share our message and invitations at W.I.N.E. Club.
As an individual you can have ideas – but as a T.E.A.M. (Together Everyone Achieves More) the creativity explodes!
Robyn, Sounds amazing!! Love that you guys are taking time to network off the clock!!
Great idea. Maybe I’ll have to start a southern division.
Have I seen those wine charms before? Wish I was closer, you might have to start a traveling chapter.
Awesome idea!! This looks like a blast, and I also wish I were closer so that I could take part!
