Please join us for an evening of connections & networking and a fire-you-up speaker to help you get back to your business and support you in meeting your goals for 2010 with special guest speaker Pat Mussieux who will talk about the 7 Steps to Growing Your Business By Getting Out of Your Own Way. Well-known as “The Queen of Networking,” Pat has x-ray vision for seeing relationship-building opportunities and the creativity to convert them into clients! (please see full bio below).

In this presentation, Pat Mussieux will share with you the powerful mindset and marketing techniques that she has mastered over the past few years – that have taken her from ‘hell to happy’! You will come away with tangible, relevant, meaningful, easy-to-apply steps that you can use TODAY to help you:

About Pat Mussieux:
After 15 years of training executives at companies like Stantec, The Westin Hotel, Sherritt International and other private sector organizations, she left the corporate world and put her skills to the test as an entrepreneur. Having stepped in and out of her business for the past 20 years, Pat contracted with a millionaire business coach in 2009 to help make quantum leaps in her business.
In just 1 short year, Pat created a six-figure home-based business after having moved across the country, leaving her 22-year marriage with virtually nothing – and starting life over in a new city across the country. She is an undisputed expert on mindset and marketing, and how to make BIG money doing what you love!
Pat is the author of “The 7-Step Guide To Growing Your Business by Building Confidence and Courage”, teaching women entrepreneurs how to get their message out and enjoy massive results, removing the self-imposed barriers of habits, attitudes, beliefs and expectations! Recently, Pat was nominated for the 2010 RBC Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year Award.
Through her coaching programs and products, Pat shows her clients how to experience freedom inside and out and create the life they truly want to live, now! It’s a ‘no-excuses’ approach!

What’s On Your Bucket List? (Aug 18)

Filed under Past PFW Events
First of all, what is a “bucket list”? A bucket list is quite simply the things we want to achieve before we “kick the bucket”. It could be learning a new language, starting your own business, running a marathon, climbing a mountain, getting a degree after the kids have gone off to university, or owning a cottage. It is those dreams we keep putting off to another day, often a day that never comes.
Join us for a workshop that will help you bring your dreams back to life!
In this 2-hour workshop, we will use a variety of media from handouts and whiteboards to discussions and Q&A exercises throughout the seminar to help you create your own personal Bucket List.
This interactive workshop will help you:
- Find clarity about your most important priorities and passions
- Get inspired by the stories of others as they share their dreams
- Come away empowered with new techniques and tools to tackle the things that you’ve always wanted to do!
This workshop offers participants a unique opportunity to share and explore life’s ambitions and the means to achieve them in a fun, collaborative environment that elicits the powerful inspiration that lies within us all to bring our visions to life and find fulfillment and joy!
The workshop will be led and facilitated by Susan Wright, founder of Wright Momentum, a lifestyle coaching and consulting company that inspires people and organizations to engage in a process of change that generates renewed energy, synergy and collaboration. As a seeker of experience, a masterful designer, and guide for handling new and uncomfortable terrain, she helps people rapidly develop trust to arrive at conscious choices and inspired action to successfully manage change and create desired results.
