Breakfast Sponsor for May 2010 was:


Bettina Carey

Women in Small Biz


Bettina Carey is Chief Empowerment Officer and ardent supporter of the LIVE! 3rd Annual Women's Empowerment & Prosperity Summit™ : Inspiring Confident Women Leading From the Heart!™ and WORDpower™ Women’s Voice: Women’s Choice Leadership Awards™, a once small conference-styled event, that has grown from a spirited idea into something that will attract hundreds of women in business and working professionals who Carey guarantees a life-changing experience. The event touted as the most thought provoking, dynamic conference-styled gathering for women in the Puget Sound area has become recognized for its unparalleled capacity to empower and inspire women to live and love life abundantly will unite more than twenty locally- and nationally-acclaimed leaders and visionaries with more than 200 women attending the Summit.

The event, scheduled for June 18, 2010 at the Renaissance Seattle Hotel, is expected to attract women from all walks of life, cultures, backgrounds and viewpoints. Carey, the events producer says this year's theme is: "Inspiring Confident Women Leading from the Heart™ meant to engage women in exploring their soul's calling, to connect with other joy-filled, like-minded women cut from the same cloth, nurture dreams and celebrate milestones with ritual in our one of a kind and cutting edge EMPowerment™ Circles."

What is an EMPowerment™ Circle you may ask? "It is a critical conversation and/or break out session for and about women that is interactive, yet informal, subject specific discussion where guests probe the table hosts for their knowledge and expertise. Carey adds, EMPowerment™ Circles stands for Empowering, Mentoring and Promoting You. It is an environment where you come can listen to enriching and enlivening stories of women who have broken through the glass ceiling to discover their true potential, as well as, to hear stories of hope, courage, transformation and success, words of encouragement and life lessons, all shared from the heart.

Quoting Cheston and Kuhn, Carey explains, "Empowerment is about change, choice and power. It is the process of change by which individuals or groups with little or no power and ability make choices that affect their lives." Carey adds, "Empowerment is that little distinction that powerful women feel when they have the power to make a difference." She plans on filling in the gap for women who want to be more powerful in their lives, in their careers and in their communities. (Cheston and Kuhn, 2002; Pages 175-176)

Carey asks, "Are you playing small? Do you long to find your inner voice? Are you ready to feel a fire in your belly, an unprecedented passion and zest for life when you discover your true calling, your true purpose here? Are you ready for a change or better yet a transformation?" She adds, "guests will also learn how to successfully barter and/or trade your gifts, talents & abilities; meet new clients and strategic partners who do business with heart; and/or discover an encore career."

This powerful 1-day event will equip you with the skills and relationships you need to take charge of your life, balance health and life, leaving you inspired, refreshed and discovering your main purpose. Examine fresh ideas, build trusted networks, and participate in substantive, in-depth conversations about how to grow your business, relationships and get more out of life! The Summit concludes with the highly anticipated 3rd Annual WORDpower™ Women's Voice: Women's Choice Leadership Awards ™, honoring the power of women in politics and government; film, radio and television; publishing and editing; women's organizations as well as individual women leaders.
