  • Being Inspired By Chocolate
    By: Mary Foley | - Inspiration is everywhere if we're open to it. Not long ago after several long ten to twelve hour days, I was dragging. I was working hard and had gotten a lot done, but I had more to do. The problem was my mojo was running low. So, I did what so many of us do when we need that temporary jolt of energy. I headed for the chocolate!

    This time it was a special box of chocolates that I'd been given a month ago as a gift. I reached into the cupboard for that familiar gold crested ...

  • 5 Steps To Take Charge Of Your Professional Growth
    By: Mary Foley | - You've heard the adage "If there's one thing that's constant, its change", right? Ain't that the truth, especially when it comes to our professional lives! Just ask area employees of Wachovia Securities or Circuit City. Both companies are predicting or experiencing job loss because of major changes in their business. On the other hand, some area businesses are growing, like the small business Tabitha Geary Company who recently received an influx of venture capital to build a larger local ret ...

  • We Can Do It Again!
    By: Mary Foley | - "We Can Do It!" is the banner across one of the most well-known posters during World War II encouraging women to join the workforce for the war effort. You probably remember it - the image of a woman with a red bandana on her head, rolling up her blue shirt sleeve as she makes a fist. It always communicates to me a woman's strength and determination. Recently I picked up a book titled "Rosie the Riveter" about this amazing workforce shift in American history and came to appreciate just how mu ...

  • We All Gotta Little Bodaciousness
    By: Mary Foley | - "Bodacious, is that even a word?" I've been asked. Absolutely! The dictionary definition of bodacious includes descriptors like bold, outstanding, and courageous. I define it as "the courage to be in charge of your life." I love the word bodacious because it captures a positive spirit of freedom, choice and being all you can be.

    Do you want feel more bodacious and wonder how? It's easier than you may have thought! My personal experience has convinced me that in the journey o ...

Here are ten things you want your reputation to say about you.

  • Feeling Secure In An Insecure World
    By: Mary Foley | - If there's nothing else carved on my tombstone, I hope it says: "Here lies a Bodacious Woman who knew how to thrive on shift and change!"

    I believe we've just begun to taste the rate of change the world will experience this century. Hold onto your hats, the ride has just begun! We might as well enjoy it (because if nothing else, the alternative really stinks).

  • Every Women Entrepreneur Should Watch American Idol!
    By: Mary Foley | - I almost can't believe I'm recommending this! Now let me tell you why. Because the "America Idol" TV show is great learning about what it takes to stand out in the marketplace. That's what all these singers are trying to do. I've never intended to watch the show but when I was channel surfing during a commercial break of another show I was enjoying, I was pulled in. There they were; this beautiful group of young guys and gals performing. They were performing their hearts out and then they ...

  • Stop Taking It Personally And Start Living Bodaciously
    By: Mary Foley | - We can all remember a time when we took it personally, right? We spent all this time, energy, and emotion on processing how we felt when someone slighted us, what we wished we'd said, and what, if anything, we were going to do about it. And most of the time when it was over and we were slumped in out chair feeling exhausted, needing to face a long list of things still to get done, we wish we'd spent our time on something else, something we cared more about, something more productive.

  • Good-bye Good Girl, Hello Bodacious Woman!
    By: Mary Foley | - If you want to live your life as an exclamation rather than an explanation, it's likely you're going to have to part ways with one of your dear childhood friends. This person may have served you in a number of ways as a young child, but no longer supports you much as an adult. Think I've looked up your history in the where-are-they-now high-school yearbook web sites? Naah. My experience tells me this childhood friend is someone you know very well. She's been with you through thick and thin. She' ...

    By: Mary Foley | - The late, great Katharine Hepburn was one Bodacious Woman! Of all the ground breaking things she accomplished, there's one piece of advice she gave that has helped me over and over again. It's this:

    Don't over explain; don't over complain.

    Hepburn knew it would be tough to be a successful female actress in the male-dominated acting world of the 1930s. She didn't let that dissuade her. She worked hard and smart.

They are trying to push you to do something you don't want to do or they are questioning your work or they are dismissing your opinion or some other wonderful behavior.

  • Think Like An Investor When Job Interviewing
    By: Mary Foley | - What's easy to forget when you're looking for a new job is that you are interviewing the company as much as they are interviewing you. It's about match and exchange. Do they have what you want? Do you have what they want?

    If you feel desperate for a job, everything about the company, position, and people may look a lot rosier than it probably is. You're much more vulnerable taking whatever's offered rather than assessing the situation for real, personal satisfaction. The same can ...

So, if you're in the midst of a job change and salary negotiation, here are some important things to keep in mind: Know How Much You're Worth: Well-managed companies conduct regular labor market asse ...

But, the fact is that on the other side of every ending, no matter how scary it may feel, is a bright new beginning that can be just what is needed.

  • 5 Key Lessons I Learned From Working At Aol About Creating A Brand For Your Business
    By: Mary Foley | - After 10 years of forging my career at AOL during their rise to global dominance, I consider myself corrupted. The lessons I learned there are seared onto my brain. And, thankfully so, because I've used everything single one in building my own business.

    One huge lesson I learned was about BRANDING. By 1997, AOL was the number one online service, but the lead wasn't so huge that Microsoft's new MSN service couldn't take it away. If AOL was going to continue to bust open and tak ...

    Not like it okay. Not do it because you know how. Not do it because you've invested so much time and energy into it. I mean LOVE it!

    Think of some of the world-wide brands we experience every day Target, Dell, and BMW. Just mentioning these names conjures up a feeling, doesn't it? For example, when you thought of Target you may have felt a bit light and happy because of their upbeat commercials. Whe ...

Or, you're looking for a new computer because your old one has just died, again.

    You work in technical support. He/she is a hotshot in the sales department. Every time you find yourselves in the same elevator, your clothing seems to brush up against each other's. Simple static electricity -- or are romantic sparks responsible for that familiar tingle?

    By: Mary Foley | - It's that time of year again for New Years resolutions. We've all heard that key to a successful life, career, or business means having setting and achieving goals. Make goals. Post goals. Follow your goals. Goals, goals, goals, it all sounds so disciplined and draining.

    Don't get me wrong, I love achieving things that are important to me. Without goals, I couldn't have gotten this far. But I needed a new way of looking at goals that didn't make me tired already. So, I came ...

And the one many people think but don't usually say-ta-ta's.

    One lesson women typically have a difficult time with is establishing boundaries. As little girls, most of us were never taught how to say, No, This is what I want. Think, for example, how Meg Ryan's character in the mo ...

    By: Mary Foley | - Wild berry. That's the name of my favorite nail color. To me it says fun, bold, sexy, and just simply makes my fingers and hands look so good. It's a funny name for a nail polish, but then so many women's cosmetics have funny names. There's Mango Spice lipstick, Roaring Red blush, and Whispering Mist eye shadow.

  • Why Bodacious Women Would Be Insane Not To Vote
    By: Mary Foley | - Every November all Bodacious Women in the United States get to vote - for our next President, members of Congress, and other elected positions. Personally, I'm less interested in WHOM you vote for, as much as that you vote AT ALL. This is especially true after reading the following by Jane Saks, Director of Advancement at the College of Architecture and the Arts in Chicago. I honestly had no idea how much our foremothers went through so that women in the U.S. had the right to vote.
