Last Friday, I had a pleasure of meeting some ladies whom I have communicated with via email however, most of them I haven’t heard their voice.

Well, one of these lovely ladies is Terri, The Pop Art Diva. I heard Terri’s voice last friday at the Boomer Diva Day event and there were a few things I truly enjoyed—
1) The confidence in her voice - She knows who she is and she really likes who she is—Yes, I could hear that over the web conference room
2) The passion in her voice - She enjoys what she does and shares the joy with others - she was talking about her art and showcased her many talents.

Today, Terri, twittered about her post on creativity and how it was featured on The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch!

Terri mentions how those whom are creative have a hard time believing the value of their creativity —the art, music, painting, sculptures, etc.

To me, when you create something from scratch, you have created something unique and special…there is definitely value.

However, if you don’t value yourself, how can you value what you bring to others?

So, I believe it starts with yourself and how you feel about who you are and then it can expand to others around you.

Remember you have great value and thus your creativity and art has value.

I have to tell you, Friday at the Boomer Diva Day was quite a wonderful day. Not only was a surrounded via a web conference room, with friends and support by lovely business women who were online to celebrate and have fun. (We almost sang in unity “Happy Birthday” to Beverly).

We started a bit late due to a few technical difficulties however once the ball got rolling it kept on going!

We started with a vendor presentation with Kathy Porter with Mia Bella Candles - hmmm, smell so great and they are good for the environment because they are made from soy.

Then we had our guest speaker, Heidi Richards, founder of WECAI, talking about “30 tips to increase your social media presence in 30 days”

**A few of her tips include:
–>start a blog and keep blogging on a fairly consistent basis

We then heard from Donna Borque from Passion Partiesabout how to spice up our lives.

Then we shifted gears and Rosie Horner chatted with us about her Blog Management System. She comprised a compilation of forms to help the beginner or even the most advanced blogger organize their blogs.
