A VERY SPECIAL ENCORE PRESENTATION OF AN ABSOLUTE MUST-SEE MOVIE FOR ANY POSITIVE FABULOUS WOMAN!!!
Some of you may have already seen this movie with us in previous years, but I invite you join us for a healthy dose of inspiration and to kick-start 2012 in the company of other fabulous women!
The movie that will inspire and uplift you by sharing personal life stories and success strategies of accomplished and inspiring positive fabulous women!
How is it that some women are wildly successful, while others, with the same relative education, experience, passion and goals for success, struggle? We all have the same amount of hours in a day, yet some are able to accomplish so much more. What is it that they do so differently? What is it that they possess that is unique? What is it that makes them GLOW?
While it is invisible, women can see it.
While it cannot be touched, women can feel it.
There is a powerful essence inside of every woman—a critical ingredient that only women possess. When realized, nurtured and expanded, it becomes the key to true happiness and success. You deserve happiness, fulfillment, and the opportunity to achieve wild success. STOP what you are doing. Take a breath, and connect with your GLOW.
The GLOW Project has brought together prominent corporate achievers and dynamic entrepreneurs, to share with you how they manifest, unleash and expand GLOW. Witness their struggles and pain and their strategies for success. By focusing on GLOW, they are fulfilling their destinies and achieving more success than they ever imagined. These women exude the kind of grace, confidence and strength that every woman can achieve, while also being mothers, daughters, wives and leaders. The GLOW Project will ignite your spirit and inspire your dreams.
The GLOW Project will show you that, no matter how hard you work, no matter how hard you try, you can never achieve your full potential and happiness without GLOW. GLOW is your birth right as a woman. Your essence, your passion and your dreams can no longer be denied. You ARE brilliant, magnificent, and unequalled! Embrace your essence and forever live in GLOW.

When Positive Fabulous Women and CRAVE Toronto get together to host, you know you’re in for a positively luscious mingler – with just the right amount of swank.
This is THE gathering of the season for Toronto’s women entrepreneurs. We will be meeting at the beautiful Local Company on the Danforth to sip French Martinis or Pink Sangrias (or Perrier, as you prefer) while chatting about business (and other matters).
Bring your business cards –- you will meet other, interesting women you’ll want to keep in touch with. But you won’t have to do all the talking.
We’ve invited four very successful entrepreneurs to dish their very best business advice.
Jennifer Ettinger; Fit Your Style (@FitYourStyle)
Leslie Hughes; Punch Media (@punchmediadotca)
Marcy Berg; Mortgages for Women (@marcyberg)
Melissa Ramos; Sexy Food Therapy (@sexyfoodtherapy)
They will be sharing practical ideas that can be implemented right away to make a REAL DIFFERENCE in your business in 2012.
And then the panel discussion will be opened up for questions.
Not sure whether it’s time to expand or stay the course? Unclear about the best way to use social media? Need pricing advice? Want to hear what marketing ideas have worked for our experts and which have NOT?
Ask. You’ll get answers. And LOTS of inspiration.
This invitation will be going out to Positive Fabulous Women and CRAVE Toronto communities so we’re expecting it to fill up quickly. It would be safest to sign up early if you’re hoping to attend (and maybe even enjoy the early bird pricing!). We wouldn’t want to miss you!
A very special thank you to our sponsors!

I AM – The Film | Feb 23
October 25, 2011 by Master-User
Filed under PFW Events
As Seen on The Oprah Winfrey Show!
THIS IS A FILM FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT THE TRUTH
Ever wonder what the root cause of the world’s problems are?
What’s wrong the world and What we can do about it?
Discover the truth of who we really are, the magic and mystery of the human heart…Challenge your beliefs…
Armed with nothing but his innate curiosity and a small crew to film his adventures, filmmaker Tom Shadyac set out on a twenty-first century quest for enlightenment. Meeting with a variety of thinkers and doers–remarkable men and women from the worlds of science, philosophy, academia, and faith–including such luminaries as David Suzuki, Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Lynne McTaggart, Ray Anderson, John Francis, Coleman Barks, and Marc Ian Barasch – Shadyac appears on-screen as character, commentator, guide, and even, at times, guinea pig. An irrepressible “Everyman” who asks tough questions, but offers no easy answers, he takes the audience to places it has never been before, and presents even familiar phenomena in completely new and different ways.
The result is a fresh, energetic, and life-affirming film that challenges our preconceptions about human behavior while simultaneously celebrating the indomitable human spirit.
This isn’t just a film, it’s an experience!

Last year, Positive Fabulous Women flocked to do the “Bad Girl’s Guide to Fulfillment” with sassy Soul Coach Kimberly Carroll. This year we bad girls are going for the power!
Are there areas of your life you wish you could feel more powerful and confident in? Do you feel like limiting beliefs might be stalling your dreams? Are there parts of yourself you work really hard to keep hidden? Bad Girls…get ready to power up your bad-ass magnificent self!
As women, we often spend so much energy criticizing or trying to hide much of who we are that we end up seriously depleting our overall personal power.

Through innovative exercises, deep healing visualizations, inspired sharing, practical techniques, and a lot of laughs, you will:

- turn that inner critic into your most supportive ally
- connect to your shadow qualities and transform them into constructive power
- instantly start physically embodying the energy of power

Who Are You Meant to Be?
It is said that at the moment of your birth you have an awareness of your potential and an idea of who you are meant to be. In the next moment, this awareness disappears into the unconscious where it becomes our task to uncover it during our lifetime.
Discover your predominant need that must be met in order for you to feel secure and achieve your potential. All too often, we remain unaware of what our built-in needs are and, as a result, they go unmet. We are then at the mercy of our unconscious impulses, emotions and habits of mind. We end up repeating longstanding patterns that get in the way of achieving our goals or creating the life of happiness and satisfaction we want.
In this highly interactive networking event, participants will connect with others who share the same predominant need based on their Striving Style. You will learn how its innate needs and emotional drives dictate your behaviour – personally and professionally. You will find out how to fully leverage your brain’s hard-wiring to achieve your potential and become who you were meant to be.
