Success, Not where you're from BUT where you're AT....

 Have you heard??? Women Who Network hosted their 1st Mixer of 2013 and it was very successful. I must admit, I was a tad bit worried at first. We didn't have the same backing and support as we did the last time. We had support from as far as California ( and other surrounding states too). Our venue was packed and we knew most of the people in the crowd which provided comfort. But we couldn't ride off that success. We'v grown and it was time to stand alone and make it happen.

This go round, the only familiar face was our vendor Tonja, Owner of Selena's Collection. So, we had to wing it ourselves. But the end result was PURE SUCCESS. Not only was it a success but we made new connections for our next event.

If you're in the Atlanta area, check out Kat's Cafe, located on Piedmont Ave. The owner Kat, opened her doors and allowed Women Who Network to do what we do best, Talk, Network, Share &Work the crowd. She was friendly and warm which set the tone for the atmosphere. Her spot is known for the live music, singing, spoken word and the vibe is nothing but refreshing, laid back and drama free( which we LOVE)... It's definitely a hidden jewel here in the heart of Atlanta.

Mixer 2013, provided LIVE Entertainment from the beautiful Lara Belle of Soulful Entertainment. She provided over an hour of live music( along with her guitarist Brandon). She got the crowd to sing and even introduced a few of her other singing buddies( Latriece and Trei but WAIT Trei does more than just sing, hold on). She sang a few of her original pieces and even threw in some Jill Scott because we're definitely taking our FREEDOM off the shelf and carrying it with us EVERYWHERE we go. (Living MY Life like it's GOLDEN)!!!

Giveaways... Who LOVES giveaways? I certainly do. Thank you to some wonderful supporters of WWN, we received Budget Bracelets from Tiff the Budgetnista, giftcards to Express & Macy's courtesy of Tommy from Nationwide Insurance( hey, it was my bday where's my Macy's giftcard..LOL), pencils from KISS( kid inspired sitter services), books signed by Authors Matthew Parker and Earlina Banks, along with other cool stuff in the gift bags.

And lastly, to promote an event; sometimes a commercial is needed. We thank our new buddy Ms. Trei of Treihouse Radio (on your am radio dial), for making that possible. She also provided a live chat session with Lina(  one of our Founders of WWN). Got a business and want to share? Trei is definitely the person you want to connect with.

All in all, Mixer 2013 was a success. What is success without a lil bit of anxiety and fear? No, not fear of failure BUT fear of the unknown. I can HONESTLY from last year up until this point, WWN has definitely been on the move. Family, LIFE, Personal issues, Work etc has not stopped our mission. This is truly just the beginning. Speaking on behalf of Lina and myself, I can say we both have grown and our journeys from where we started( our hometowns) to our current state of residence is no where near over.

So, we THANK You.. We 1st thank you God for giving us the vision of WWN( yup started right in my living room), we THANK our supporters, we THANK our private funders who give when we need it and we thank our immediate Families( here in GA). You all are apart of the vision and process you will be GREAT because we are GREAT!!!!
