Mary Kay Career Conference 2018

I am taking steps to invest in myself and in my Mary Kay business.  Part of my investment was attending Career Conference this year in Duluth, GA!  When I say I gleaned so much and how thankful and blessed I felt to be among such great and strong women!  This conference left me speechless…it left me encouraged….and it left me with plenty of nuggets of knowledge.  Career Conference allowed me to hear from powerful and inspirational women from Sales Directors to National Sales Directors (or NSDs).  All with personal and real stories that left me thinking…”If they could reach that level of success…what is stopping me from reaching mine?”

Here are some top take-aways with the name of the speaker that I received the knowledge from!:

• Let people fascinate but not frustrate you; fight for what you want – Cecilia James; NSD
• If its important, then you will make the time; don’t whine, just get to work – Tina Dees; Senior Sales Director
• Don’t oversell, just ask; Its not up to me to have it all together, just to be ALL IN!; Life doesn’t get any easier – Jill Davis (NSD)
• Let me bless them, and they will bless me; have non-negotiables…stop talking and start doing!; want the support? à Then show them why they need to support you; if you are not failing, it means I’m not trying– Brittany Kaps; NSD
• You don’t get what you want, you get who you are; pray before every appointment; focus on edifying and lifting others up – Nikki Edgemon; Senior Sales Director
• Stop judging; if stinkin thinking enters, check it with the word of God—Kimbi Bartik
• Cant win if you quit…So don’t quit; healthy things grow from the inside out – Richelle Barnes
• Enjoy it all! Turn fear into excitement; how am I managing my emotions and my time – Alia Head; NSD
• Get M.A.D. – Motivated And Determined; never use your kids as an excuse, but as your “WHY’—Jeanette Thompson; Future Executive Senior Sales Director

I had such a great time learning and having fellowship with like minded individuals who are all on a journey to pursue their dreams!  If you are in Mary Kay, I encourage you to attend a conference or a seminar or even better…both!  If you are not in Mary Kay, I encourage you to find some women’s conferences or join a group that is focused on empowering women and giving women tools to succeed in all areas of your life!  I promise that the time and money you spend will not be a waste and will only propel you forward on your personal journey!

Go and be great!
