Where Do You Go to Recharge? Meet Me at Women at Woodstock!

I wrote extensively about my first experience at Women at Woodstock last year, about how I agreed to go — kicking and screaming a bit — and the immediate benefits I received by attending.

“When was first invited, I literally thought UGH. Is a women’s retreat for me? It didn’t sound like my thing – at all.”

Yup, I said that.

Women At Woodstock

Long story short, I had a life-changing experience.

This is not an exaggeration.

Here are just a few ways my world has since been enhanced by the incredible women I met at Women at Woodstock:

— Our Going Gypsy Book Release Party in New York City was a smashing success, due in no small part to the WAW-ers who attended. I was really nervous to throw our release party in the Big Apple – and shouldn’t have been; these ladies had my back.

Victoria Zackheim at Women At Woodstock

— I’m always on the lookout to improve my writing skills and the workshops held by author Victoria Zackheim were fantastic.

Victoria’s speciality is personal narrative and my favorite output from the workshop is here. She also was generous enough to read Going Gypsy and give us an editorial review.

— I met the fabulous Adriane Berg and she invited me, along with David, on her radio show, Generation Bold on Biz Talk Radio.

— The Superb Woman herself, Janet Neal, had me on her show. It was so much fun!

Susanna Baddiel at Women at WoodstockSusanna Baddiel‘s Personal Impact Training was immensely helpful getting me ready for our media appearances, speaking engagements and book signings for Going Gypsy, I would have been hopelessly floundering without her, I had zero experience.

— Then there is the almost daily online and social media support and outreach. These woman are among the most selfless people I know.

We women over 50 have lost the stupid hang-ups and false competition of our early days; we have learned the impact that banding together for one another brings. It’s quite spectacular!

Will I be attending this year on November 6-8? You couldn’t keep me away!

The gourmet meals were incredible as well!

As wonderful as the workshops are, I found the social events just as soul feeding.

The inclusive dinners and evening salons are fantastic bonding adventures, and I surprised my socially awkward self with my comfort level of mingling prowess.

Ann Voorhees Baker

I corralled the very busy Ann Voorhees Baker to get her vision of these gatherings. Her answer?

“To contribute to the coalescence of the community of women over fifty, to create an environment where women help each other achieve goals they have had, but may never have pursued.”

What a woman!
