meeting people in a small world...

as i wrote on friday...i was at a conference which was throughout the weekend...i came home so energized and motivated...but more importantly...i met some incredible people...three from argentina!! how cool is that?

it still amazes me how small this world really is...when you meet people and start talking to them...and realize you know people in common...or even more bizarre...your paths had crossed at another time and place...

for example...one woman i met a few weeks back at a baby shower...knows my cousin...and so that is how we originally started talking...realized we were in the same business...planned to meet up in the next few weeks...and...there she was sitting behind me at the conference...

another woman...who i met this weekend...lives in southern california...but graduated from my high school...as we started talking...we knew so many of the same people...and then come to find out...that there is a two year age difference...so we were attending the same high school for two years!

another woman is married to a guy i went to school with...

isn't that amazing??

i truly love meeting people...learning about their backgrounds...how they got to where they are...

as in my new friend who i met this weekend...originally from brazil...and now living in israel...and an image consultant...how do you go from brazil to israel?? and we meet in buringame, ca?

my weekend was incredible...i walked away with some great new ideas for my business...a pocket full of new contacts in other areas of the country...AND new friends...that will become part of my circle...

love that!
