I spoke at the luncheon for An Empowered Woman on Sunday, July 13, and I met several women who left a lasting impression on me. Besides yours truly, there were two other speakers: Jodi Spindel of Spindel Farms and Marsh Engle, founder of Amazing Woman’s Day. If you aren’t doing anything this Saturday, July 19, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., I suggest you get your ticket for Amazing Woman’s Day 2008 in Palm Springs, California.
Marsh Engle’s riches to rags to riches story is one you won’t want to miss. Honestly, I wasn’t the least bit surprised when I overheard her tell someone that 1,000 women would be attending her event this weekend. I am going to ask Marsh to add a comment at the end of my blog because I know she can tell you the highlights of the event far better than I can.
I would be remiss if I didn’t tell you about Jodi Spindel, the first speaker of the day at An Empowered Woman. One thing I can tell you is that she didn’t try to glamorize her plight
as a wife, mother and serial entrepreneur. Her up-close and personal story revealed not only stumbling blocks along the way but how her latest product, Simply Outrageous Pomegranate Vinegar, recently landed on the shelves of a couple of dozen Whole Foods stores in Southern California.
Marsh and Jodi are two of the most down-to-earth women I’ve met (in person) in a long time. They are both authentic and magnetic. When they spoke, everyone listened. I found myself either on the edge of my chair, giving the affirmative nod, or with goose bumps up and down my arms as I listened to them.
So here are three choices: You can hang out with Marsh in Palm Springs at her Amazing Woman’s Day 2008 this Saturday, you can buy a bottle of Jodi Spindle’s Simply Outrageous Pomegranate Vinegar at Whole Foods (or on her website), or you can do both.

Got questions? I will gladly answer your questions and always appreciate your comments.
Cheers,
Michelle

What a great article on the upcoming Amazing Woman’s Day event in Palm Springs Sat, July 19th at the Palm Springs Convention Center, and its incredible founder Marsh Engle.
I had wanted to be at the event that you and she spoke at but was in Dallas so had to miss it, but people that I know who were there said how great you and Marsh were.
Desiree who runs Empowered Woman is a dynamic woman who I had the pleasure of meeting when I spoke at one of her previous meetings.
Marsh Engle who puts on Amazing Woman’s Day is a genius, the books she has written are fantastic. Marsh changes lives with her vision, knowledge and passion for this movement. I totally believe Amazing Woman’s Day is a movement as it reaches deep inside of you to make you look at just who you are. It also brings together some of the most incredible people I have ever met and I meet thousands annually but these are the most caring, beautiful women of heart that show up at this magnificent event.
I have attended both the LA Amazing Woman’s Day and the San Diego Amazing Woman’s Day events and they were so terrific that I was so excited to be able to attend the upcoming one in Palm Springs, July 19th at the Palm Springs Convention Center. I was honored that at both the previous events and the upcoming event I was selected by Marsh to be one of the Empowering Table Leaders which is a wonderful experience, each of the Empowering Table Leaders selected are hand picked by Marsh and are terrific, each bringing their expertise to the event, and in turn leaving with many wonderful experiences that they have had just being a part of the event.
Amazing Woman’s Day is an event that changes lives, forms long lasting friendships and everyone leaves the event feeling wonderful. It is a beautiful experience that I believe all women need to experience. I totally believe it is a movement that is so unique and beautiful, and something we all need. To me it seems as it is like being at a fountain of life that makes you dig into your heart and soul to find out who you really are, its a total awakening and its such a magnificent day one that those who attend will long remember,
I was honored to receive at the San Diego event the Amazing Woman Spirit Award 2007 for the Inspired Leader of the Year Award. And although I have over the years won numerous awards this is one award I will totally cherish for the rest of my life.
At each of her Amazing Woman’s Day events Marsh honors a deserving woman and all who win are thrilled to be selected for the award.
At the San Diego event we met the Soccer team from Kenya that were playing the San Diego soccer team. These dynamic young women from Kenya spoke and touched all of our hearts, they also added to the beauty of happenings of the day so beautifully orchestrated by Marsh who has a way of bringing it all together to make it such a memorable experience for all. She orchestrates this like painting a beautiful canvas filled with the beauty of life.
That is what is so amazing about Marsh’s event each one is different and each one is packed with so many amazing and wonderful things that as you leave you wish it was not over and you can’t wait until the next one. You really don’t care where its being held you just know that you need to SHOW UP wherever it is to be part of such a magnificent day.
Marsh Engle has the power and the brilliance to make it happen over and over again and each time it is more beautiful and life changing than the time before, there is no other event like this. I encourage everyone to go to the website and check it out but more importantly to SHOW UP as Showing Up is like a treasure map and at Amazing Woman’s Day one certainly finds lots of treasures.
I know that everyone I have invited to previous Amazing Woman’s Day events cannot wait until this next one July 19th in Palm Springs at the convention center, and they are even talking about that they need to also Show Up in Arizona and Hawaii when those Amazing Woman’s Day events take place.
Each one is more magnificent than the last and they are perfect so its hard to believe it can be better, but Marsh Engle who is such a visionary has the magic to make it happen and bring together some of the most dynamic individuals that make Amazing Woman’s Day so amazing.
Thank heaven for this brilliant woman Marsh Engle whose vision, passion, and love brings us such a magnificent day with Amazing Woman’s Day 2008.
I hope to see you there.

Life becomes beautiful when you have such great trail blazers for women and Marsh Engles has stepped forward as one of our great leaders. It is difficult to describe the benefits from attending the Amazing woman’s Day events. There have been two, one in Los Angeles, one in San Diego and now one this week end in Palm Springs. The knowledge, acceptance and gathering of powerful minded women is changing the consciousness of our planet. I look forward to getting caught up in, participating in and anticipating the next event coming from the heart and soul of Marsh.
Years of work, awesome visioning and dedication to bring more into the lives of women is a happening. Her insight and development of tools, training and support will take any woman who is ready for that next wonderful phase in her life to an unbelievable height.
Marsh is also empowering women to take leadership roles in their community embracing the 6 essentials for fulfillment in their life and changing others.
It will be a great honor to walk with her and I encourage others to take their talent and passion using her guidelines to make a difference and go with her on the walk or should we say run. Three other events will be happening soon so watch for them all and join in bringing your Amazing Woman love and talents to the groups.
Marsh so reminds me of the quotation from Helen Keller
“Alone with can do so little; Together we can do so much!”
She is bringing us together and what a wonderful human being to carry the lead!
I wish great success to you in all your endeavors and thank you too, Michelle for recognizing Marsh Engles.

I am so excited to be Leader for Amazing Woman’s Day 7/19th for the reason it is a total day for women to discover their inner strengths and the support that is there for them with other women. Some times we feel alone going through our lives, as wifes, mothers, careers, businesses and more and we lose our authentic selves.
This awesome day is a day fo reconnecting and I am thrilled to be part of it.
Enthusiastically,

Amazing Woman’s Day is an event and experience not to be missed, Palm Springs may have passed however there are more to come. All I can say is if you are ready for a lifechanging experience plugging into what Marsh has to offer will launch you into the next level if you are ready.
I was an Empowerment Leader in Palm Springs which was womderful, however the 6 weeks prior were more incrediable. Marsh offered a 6 week coaching program which allowed each of us involved to explore deep into ourself to experience what our natural state is and how to express it. We all have this natural greatness inside of us however we have allowed life and society to mask it in many ugly ways. This 6 week experience unleashed the creative brilliance in all of us that participated to discover what has been waiting so patiently to become exposed in our lives.
Marsh is planning another session of 6 weeks soon so if you are ready you need to connect with this program!!!
Through this amazing experience I received a call at 12:30 in the morning the day of Amazing Woman’s Day with the words “would you like to take the stage in the morning?” My experience with AWD stepped into the next level by being a presenter to the amazing women in attendance. Wow! What an experience!!
Cheers to Marsh!!!
