			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I discovered my entrepreneurial spirit when I was a stay at home mom about 7 years ago.  It all started when a girlfriend of mine and I went on a trip to San Francisco.  We both were happily married with 2 beautiful kids.  We would try to go away for a weekend twice a year.  This trip, like I said was to San Francisco.  We took a a day trip to go wine tasting in Sonoma, Ca.  As we went from winery to winery, we were noticing the wine charms in all of the gift stores.  We thought that was such a great idea.  (For those of you who do not know what wine charms are, they are decorated rings that you put around the stems of your wine glass so you know which one is yours.).  We came home from that trip and started researching. </p>
<p>We went from creating wine charms to jewelry.  We started having home parites for our family and friends.  I had a booth at my local town fair, Carlsbad Village Fair.  I also started to go around to local boutique shops for clothing, kids, and wine, selling my jewelry and charms.  It was such a rush when a store woner or manager would place an order.  It was such an accomplishment.</p>
<p>It gave me such a sense of purpose.  Don&#8217;t get me wrong, not that being a stay at home mom did not have it&#8217;s own extremely imortant purpose.  It gave me an outlet to be creative and to be business minded.  It gave me courage to go out on my own and start something.</p>
<p>This blog is going to be dedicated to women doing the same thing.  I want to help promote women who have the courage to start something new and put themselves out there.  I also want to help women entrepreneurs find information to help them on their journey.  Hopefully we can all help those who follow their dreams, grow them even bigger than they ever imagined.</p>
