The opening night of Connect The Dots Ottawa aka the PJ party was a success!! There was lot’s of pampering, more pampering, amazing treats, products related to women and amazing speakers.
I have to say that it was somewhat weird to be riding the elevator all the way to the penthouse in my pjs. There were a number of events at the Crowne Plaza at the same time however everyone was in their business best.
As soon as I got off the elevator I was presented with a feather boa and I knew that the night was going to be fun. I then met the ladies from Goddessnet and collected my red rose. I did fill in a story about the evening on the forum.
No sooner had I entered the room everyone was ranting and raving about the treats and spa treatments. So I went to see what it was all about.
My initial intent was to get some video and photos of the event and I did manage that. However I even managed to get some much overdue pampering and I have to say that I would definitely go back to these spas that provided these services. The treats were AMAZING!!!
I was getting a facial while Zandra Bell was entertaining the crowd and I have to say that was a first for me. Typically when you go to get a spa treatment there is relaxing music in the background however this time I had a comedian there instead. It great and maybe the spas need to try that out, comedy and facial.
Sue McGarvie told us like it is, how you can keep the spark going way until you are 90!! She pointed out that for women the secret was dark chocolate, wine and omega 3. Well we had 2 out of 3 last night.
Cindy Almond demonstrated the art of pole dancing and the ladies showed us their stuff!!! Way to go ladies.
I did leave shortly after this so have no more stories to tall about the rest of the night however I did upload a few pictures to Facebook for Highlights from the PJ party. I do have video footage however you will have to wait for a bit as I will need some time to edit some of the content. I now look forward to a full day of conference.
Here I am enjoying the pre-conference excitement with Laura Booker. Connect the Dots Ottawa is just hours away. As Founder and CEO of Live at Choice, LLC it is such an honor to be here in Ottawa to be a part of such an innovative creation and watching it’s success unfold. When Laura first shared the concept of Connect the Dots with me I remember how intrigued I was with the idea. The energy and connections that are going to be generated during this conference is going to rock Ottawa’s women’s networking organizations. Thanks Laura for the opportunity to be here to serve as one of your speakers. I am thrilled to have this venue be the launch of my latest book attracting the “Right” dots! An Authentic Journey of Empowerment, Discovery and Gratitude. The book provides a fun filled way to illustrate the magic that happens when two people get connected and without expectations empower each other. Imagine what it will be like when you can see these connections growing and watch your life, business, relationships and dreams roll out right before your eyes. Through the use of this book you will have the opportunity to discover that you are always attracting the Right dots! It has been through the expendital growth that we are enjoying at Live at Choice that gave me the foresight to create this awesome workbook. We demonstrate the connections within our own business as one of the examples in the book. Each and every connection has catapled us to our success. Through this experience we have learned to let go of the “expectations” that may seem to be the “reason” for a connection…and allow the natural flow. In doing so we are enriched with

WOW! I am so grateful to be participating in this amazing event. I first heard about Connect the Dots when I was doing some research for my business plan. I booked an appointment with business advisor, Mairi Miller, from OCRI and she connected me with Laura. When I first heard about CTD, my inner child was ecstatic! A pyjama party! How fun AND how cute?! Connecting with Laura is literally ‘connecting the dots.’ It was just a week ago that I completed my life coach training and got my certification while helping out with this event in whatever way I was able to. It’s been so much fun connecting with fabulous people and learning many new skills that stretched me beyond my comfort zones to empower me into my own purpose. Upon reflection in how participating in Connect the Dots has impacted my life and business, CTD is truly fulfilling it’s mission to connect you with incredible women, collaborating, inspiring and motivating. All to be done in a style to help bring out the best you building authentic relationships in such a fun way – a Pyjama Party! AND a POWERFUL line-up to follow the next day! Definitely not an opportunity to be missed.
Ignite Potentials is an Ottawa based training company founded by three local women who share a passion for helping people and businesses ignite their infinite potential. All highly successful in the corporate world, co- founders Mary Cavanagh, Leslie Eisener and Cara Rose-Brown saw a real need for high quality personal training here in their home town and set about creating a dynamic personal and corporate training company to fill that need.
I was drawn to these women at the women’s show in 2008 and remember talking to them about joining the eWomen’s group which was in it’s infancy stage at the time. Leslie attended one of our dinner’s and joined the eWN network shortly thereafter. I have since gotten to know how committed and inspired all three women are.
Ignite Potentials offers a wide range of courses and are experts in accelerating human potential to achieve incredible results. They offer both a personal development track and a Corporate training track. They ofer customizable programs including Journey To Success, Igniting Corporate Transformation and Ignite Your Team as well as the Empowered Workforce Lunch and Learn Series for your business and Body Thoughts, Discover Your Road Map and a host of other powerful personal development courses for the individual looking to raise the bar for themselves.
I wrote a testimonial for Ignite Potentials about 2 months ago after having been introduced to their training and coaching programs -
“It’s ok to ask! That’s what I did. I’ve been suffering from a sciatic back pain for the last 11 years the worst part is that I’m only 30 years old. So after having tried every therapy known to man I decided 6 weeks ago that I would heal myself from the inside out and see if that had any impact. What I mean by inside out, is mind, body and spirit. I asked for people to come into my life that could help me heal from the inside out and that is when Ignite Potentials came into my life. I have only experienced Ignites’ powerful services for the last few weeks but I have to say without a doubt that the power of three is exponential! As a busy entrepreneur, new mom and athlete, Ignite Potentials has given me the inner strength to align my mind, body and spirit. I already see an improvement in the physical pain, I’m able to think clearer, I’m more focused on business, I have all the time I desire with my family and I can’t wait to hit the ski slopes this winter! Thanks to Cara, Leslie and Mary I’m living my full potential!” Laura Booker
