I found my wings with the women of facebook … Ever since I discovered the power and all the possibilities of social media just about a year ago, I looked for a way I could truly express myself through this incredible medium.
My new findings both intrigued and scared me. Like many, I have purchased books, courses, attended webinars and spent countless hours learning online skills. I admit, the learning curve was difficult for me. The technical aspect of online marketing scared me but what made me stay is the fact that I was intrigued with the power and real meaning of it all. Especially what did social media and facebook meant to me. I wanted to know!
One after another, the women of facebook attracted me. This was it! I knew I wanted to BE one of them. They were all so, beautiful, driven, powerful, decisive …unstoppable! As I was making new friends, there pictures stood out from the screen, looking right at me saying; Join Us!
Painting the women of facebook is what i want to do... It represents capturing the essence of the new entrepreneurial women around the world who found their voices with a blog, their brand and social media. The new working mom has totally transformed herself and taken her wings!
The spirit and determination of the women of facebook exudes through their profile and their pictures. They glow because they are happy and because they can freely express themselves…just as I do now. I create The Group “The Women of Facebook” for the women. I created this group for me, to be closer to THEM. It is for ALL women of facebook to connect with each other and help one another. This wonderful group is not about me… its bigger then all of us because it is for all of us together.
I have a new direction and new dreams because of a simple invitation to meet me and celebrate women's beauty and spirit! I am floating on a cloud of hope happiness and determination. I am determined to have women around the world discover their talents and their true self, come out, and scream that they believe in themselves to the world!
Scream it, speak it, sing it, and paint it! The medium you will use does not matter. Solidity and empowerment is universal and has no barriers.

As Val said, well said Nathalie - with eloquence and grace in "YOUR VOICE"! I remember this line from the movie Eat, Pray, Love - "when you set out to help yourself, sometimes you end up helping tutti" (tutti in Italian is everybody)!!!!
In gratitude to you my friend from Women of Facebook!
Nancy
I love that... "helping tutti" I am so pleased to know you Nancy...
I know we have a similar path in front of us in the sense of wanting so much to unite and help women recognize their abilities!!
Much Love,
Nathalie
Well said Nathalie! Love your energy, enthusiasm and your passion. :)
Val, I feel like you have been my "girlfriend" since high school" At the time you spoke french...LOL
Thanks for being such an encourager!
