Connecting fearlessly on Twitter

Four weeks ago I was inspired by a group of ladies at the Entrepreneurial Moms – Calgary Chapter event.  In particular Kathy Buckworth, Christie Schulz & Carla Young. I was inspired on many different levels; completing my book, some great tips on publishing and also using Twitter, which all three of these ladies have mastered!

Shine vs Whine: Shine I am going to play full out for twitter for a month and see what happens vs Whine Twitter is too complex and a waste of time.

So, in I went… I set up my twitter account quite some time ago, although really didn’t “get it”, quite honestly thought it was a bunch of BS… Was I ever wrong!  I have networked with like minded business people and made incredible connections: from business advice,  Mompreneur tips, Mental Health resources, inspirational quotes & stories, support and so much more.  Twitter is where I met Kathleen Sullivan of The Savvy VA who just finished merging my website and blog together, I am so grateful that I met her – the outcome is fantastic – Thanks Kathleen!

I have also had the honor of being one of the team posting “tweets” for FearlessWomenCA,this in itself has been so much fun!  To see the viral impact of sharing a good cause has been remarkable.  The gift in posting tweets for FearlessWomenCA is that I have become fearless, tweeting to celebrities, and just doing what it takes to spread the word of this incredible event that is raising money for great causes – Brown Bagging It Calgary and National Society of Women of Canada.  Check it out at http://fearlesswomencalgary.eventbrite.comAugust 26th!

It has also given me the opportunity, along with Facebook to stay connected with everyone back in Calgary, while I am here in Australia.

I am seeing amazing results both personally & professionally and am so grateful I have become fearless in connecting with people to keep shining bright and allowing people to Know, Like & Trust me online.

    Hi Lee :)
    I never saw what your place was like before the wonderful revamp but it’s looking wonderful now. And you’ve only been tweeting for a month? Wow. I’m impressed. You’re such a natural ;)

    I personally started out like you. I joined Twitter with my Give A Brick charity hat on and whilst I still tweet from there too, I finally decided to had to get a personal account too so I could keep in touch with all my friends.

    I have met some brilliant new friends on Twitter. In fact, one of my very best friends in the world and I would never have met each other had it not been for the wonderful site. Twitter is my playground when my shift working husband leaves and the children are sleeping.

    I adore that you’ve chosen to shine. Keep sparkling. You do it so well.
