Though the mini-class and full-day conference tickets for Moms Who Make It are sold out (by the way, the conference isn’t just for moms) there is still time to buy your afternoon/evening session tickets. This ticket will get you into main part of the conference, which includes our Shop & Socialize (browsing the boutiques and sponsors); inspiring keynote speakers; panel of fab women; breakout sessions on everything from motherhood to social media; a gourmet–and I truly mean gourmet–dinner; and Mocktail Party social. Did I mention we also have some fun swag for our attendees? I should know since the boxes arrive daily at my home!

One fun part of the Moms Who Make It conference is our Moms Who Are Making It spotlight. During this time we will be honoring 10 moms who have had difficult life circumstances but have used them as a catalyst to change their lives for the better. These are moms who have inspired you to look at your own life and think, “I can make it too!”

We will collect all the nominations and randomly select ten to be honored at the conference. Each time a mom is nominated she receives an entry into the drawing, so the more nominations the better her chance of being spotlighted at our event. These moms will receive a full-day ticket to the conference and some fun swag! If you know a mom who is “making it,” please email or comment a quick summary (200 words or less) on why you think she should be honored during the Moms Who Make It conference. You can send an email to momswhomakeit {at} createdbymom {dot} com.

If you wonder if you’ll be honored as one of our Moms Who Are Making It, buy your ticket now before the price goes up on July 7th (midnight) OR before they sell out! If you are chosen we will refund your ticket price.

We’re looking forward to sharing their stories and being inspired just as you have been inspired by them!

Have you ever seen those guest correspondents on the red carpet and wished it were you talking up celebrities and getting behind-the-scenes interviews? And I know I’m not the only one who got a kick out of watching Ross the Intern on Jay Leno; he had a heck of a lot more than fifteen minutes of fame. Well, now it’s your turn to be a guest correspondent, but instead of doing something lame like talking with Spielberg about his latest movie, you get to talk with the fabulous women behind the Moms Who Make It conference!

I am working with Quinn Curtis, the woman behind CreatedByMom.com, helping throw the biggest party plan this most awesome conference! The conference will take place on Thursday, July 16th near Salt Lake City, Utah. Quinn is all about empowering and inspiring women and Moms Who Make It is the ONLY conference dedicated to strengthening moms in all facets of life and/or business. This isn’t an event just for women entrepreneurs nor is it just for moms. It’s for any woman who is looking for powerful tools and insight to start or grow her business and creatively balance her personal life.

Special guests include Kim Christopherson (YouCanMakeThis.com), Rachael Herrscher (TodaysMama), Melissa Chapell (Raw Melissa), Kelly Anderson (Startup Princess) and Pamela Baumeister (Wasatch Woman magazine). Here is just a sampling of topics featured at the conference:

• Know the power in living your purpose; harness your creativity to build the life you want
• Balance your daily demands allowing sufficient time and energy for your family
• Cut your grocery bill in half while making mealtime more meaningful to your family
• Enhance your natural beauty holistically
• Know how to take your business idea and make it a reality
• Utilize social media to broaden your support base; gain hundreds of new potential clients
