It was my intention yesterday to write a post about this terrific event and the fabulous women I encountered there. However, due to the Law of Attraction, that post has been detained a bit longer.

As some of you may remember, I have been salivating over tickets to Maria Shriver’s Women’s Conference since it went on sale and then subsequently sold out in less than three hours earlier this summer. I even wrote a post about it hoping Maria Shriver herself might read the post and provide a few lucky Six Figure Moms Club members with tickets. Nothing happened.

Last week, my head hung low as I was conceding to the fact that I just wasn’t going to this fabulous event when one of my co-sponsors at the flexible work event offered up an option. I could volunteer on Monday and work the conference as a way to attend. Had I known about this earlier, I would have jumped on the opportunity, but I had commitments Monday that I couldn’t move. Regretfully, I couldn’t make this work.

On Monday morning, my phone started ringing and texts started pouring into my cell phone. By the end of the day, I had access to seven tickets to the conference. Crazy huh? Thank you Universe.

I’m writing this post in haste as I pack my things to run out the door to the conference. I likely won’t have a chance to write any other blog posts until the weekend but I wanted to let you all know how powerful we are. It’s always worth pursuing every little thing you want because the world really is here to help you! If this isn’t proof enough for you, I’m not sure what is!

If everything works out, I’ll be attending the Women’s Conference as a member of the media today. I hope to be standing next to Bono of U2 sometime in the next 24 hours. Universe, did you hear that one?

Of course, my love affair with Twitter continues and if I have a chance, I’ll be tweeting under hash code #miverva as will the other tweeps that attend. If you’re interested, go to www.search.twitter.com and search for “minerva”. There is also a live webcast of this event at the Women’s Conference webcast and I believe at Oprah.com. Sorry, you’ll have to search for the link…because I’ve gotta drive to Long Beach ;-)

We need tickets! http://www.sixfiguremomsclub.com/2008/07/hey-maria-shriver-we-need-tickets/ http://www.sixfiguremomsclub.com/2008/07/hey-maria-shriver-we-need-tickets/#comments Tue, 15 Jul 2008 20:59:05 +0000 admin http://www.sixfiguremomsclub.com/?p=37 Tickets both went on sale and sold out yesterday for the 5th Annual Women’s Conference sponsored by Maria Shriver, California First Lady.  Event announcements promise great things,  ”conference attendees can expect the same empowering experiences, fascinating speaker pairings, and once-in-a-lifetime conversations that have become the conference’s trademark under Shriver’s leadership.”.  The conference has an impressive lineup of speakers like Warren Buffet, Condoleeza Rice, Bono, Jennifer Lopez, Gloria Steinem, et al.  There’s only one problem, you can’t get a ticket.  So Mrs. Arnold Schwarzenagger, I respectfully request that you add day two as an encore.  Although you can’t attend the main event, there are still two options for people interested in attending.  You can add your name to a waiting list or buy a $20 ticket to A Night at the Village, a separate event the evening before featuring guest speaker Rachel Ray.

Anyone ever experienced one of these conferences?  If so, click on the title to this post and leave a comment with your feedback.
