"I've participated in many goal-setting activities and heard presenters, but Mary's simple suggestion of focusing on the "WHAT" and "WHY" helped me specifically outline the role I want to do. Through discussion I had with a few women throughout the day, I was able to further refine this until yesterday, I realized all this was possible. I now have a new, defined plan for my career I can take to my manager to present and have a productive discussion on what I can offer my employer. If it weren't for the messages from some of conference speakers and the leaders I connected with while in Calgary, I wouldn't have this clear vision nor the motivation to go after it. I can't thank you enough for that."

"I wanted to send you a message and let you know that I LOVED the conference. The speakers you chose were fantastic and i will admit that this was the first conference that I was there from start to finish!! I did run out of steam near the end of the day but I did not want to miss any sprinkles of experience and knowledge. I truly hope that there will be another conference as I have already recommended it to other women! My hope is that this conference will grow to encompass both genders as the leadership tools, messages and inspiration were the best I have experienced. Thank you for the wonderful gift of encouraging women to live fully."

"This was the most outstanding conference we have ever been to. We can go to ag production conferences all the time, everywhere. But this one was just for us. It made me realize I am not alone with my insecurities, doubts, and makes me empowered to go after what I want because I know I can do it."
