Our Tribute to Military Wives, Moms, Sisters & Aunts – July 1st

By Leave a Comment

This is a short video that will give you a little bit of a feel for what our July 1st show is about. The show is dedicated to women with loved ones in the armed services; to thank them for their sacrifice. All women with loved ones serving in the military are welcome. We felt it was appropriate, given the upcoming July 4th holiday.

Divas, please don’t miss this chance to thank the brave women who may never see a battlefield, but still have to fight our wars too.

I look forward to your seeing you Military Divas at the show (Wednesday, July 1st at 2:00 p.m EST). Of course, if you absolutely cannot make it to the live show, replays will be available.

That’s it for now! Until next time…wear your heels well!

P.S. Will you please tweet about our show? I’d love to spread the word and invite as many women as possible.  Likewise, I’d love your feedback.

P.S.S. A HUGE thank you to my Intern, Stephen, for creating such an incredible video.  Stephen, you ROCK!!

Lorrie Thomas of Web Marketing Therapy is our Featured Guest on 6/24/09

By 3 Comments

Lorrie Thomas is the founder of Web Marketing Therapy, a company that offers web marketing advice and solutions to Internet entrepreneurs. Many of her clients find it useful to have a guide when navigating the wilderness of the web environment; Lorrie and her “wild web woman” team are the experienced and savvy trailblazers that can turn any business’s marketing strategy in a profitable direction.

Lorrie is an amazing and intriguing woman with an extremely interesting style. As a marketer, she often thinks and writes in “sound bytes”, memorable short phrases that are readily quotable. I interviewed Lorrie recently for A Truly Outstanding Woman spotlight on BriefcaseDiva and was impressed with the quippy gems that would emerge from her responses to  my questions.

For example, when I asked what significant obstacles she had to overcome in her business, her tendency towards perfectionism was at the top of her list. But she defeated this destructive tendency with the 10-10-10 rule, which was good enough that I must include it here. In Lorrie’s words: “Does it matter in ten minutes, ten months or ten years? Then I prioritize.” Wow.

Simple, but it’s little things like this that separate failing businesses from successful companies like Web Marketing Therapy.

Other quotable quotes from Lorrie: “Women entrepreneurs succeed when they don’t settle.”  ”Giving away my expertise is what pays my bills.” “The most dangerous words are “I KNOW THAT”.

Lorrie Thomas is a family woman in addition to being a “wild web woman“, spending much of her time simply being with her loved ones, friends, and family. She lists hiking, traveling, and volunteering as a few of the many activities that she loves to do. A force around the world as well in her local area (Santa Barbara, California), Lorrie is frequently interviewed for her marketing expertise and is recognized worldwide as an expert on internet marketing.

Just like DivaTalkRadio and BriefcaseDiva, Web Marketing Therapy has a market of primarily women; however, men love her site too.  In fact, she has a “non-estrogen” member of her Wild Web Women team…we call them “Divos” here on DivaTalkRadio.

Lorrie’s charismatic and bubbly personality fits in perfectly fine with the Divas and I can’t wait to have her on our upcoming show.  You will instantly become a huge fan of Lorrie’s and the team over at Web Marketing Therapy…I promise!!

So, here’s what you need to do:

1. Mark your calendars for Wednesday, June 24th at 2:00 p.m. EST to listen to DivaTalkRadio LIVE.

2. Visit Web Marketing Therapy and learn all you can about Lorrie and her team.  You’ll love their site and all of the information that they pour into it just so YOU can succeed.  This is definitely a site a bookmark.

3. Post questions in the comment section below and I’ll be sure to ask Lorrie for you during the LIVE show.

4. Follow Lorrie on Twitter @LorrieThomas and @WebTherapist.  Be sure to tell her that you a looking forward to her interview on DivaTalkRadio!

This is one Diva you do not want to miss! I’ll look forward to your questions & seeing you at the show (Wednesday, June 24th at 2:00 p.m EST). Of course, if you absolutely cannot make it to the live show, replays will be available.

That’s it for now! Until next time…wear your heels well!

Michael McCann is our Featured Guest for 06/17/09

3Michael McCann is the author of  Husband-ry 101: How to Train Your Husband to Be the Spouse You’ve Always Wanted Him to Be. Michael has been speaking on marital communications for five years, since the first edition of Husband-ry 101 was published in 2004. A humorous and down-to-earth feel to his presentations ensures that his audience is comfortable and receptive to what he has to say, complimented by his trademark props.

Michael first got into the field of marital communications 8 years ago, after a conversation with his wife in the car. He and his wife were in the car talking about the same subject, even agreeing with each other, but neither could understand what the other was trying to convey. (This is something that I’m sure has happened to all of us at some point.) During the course of the conversation, Michael’s wife suggested that since he was a writer (business writer at the time)  he should write a book on marital communication.  Three years and many wife interviews later, Husband-ry 101 was born.

Michael first noticed that many of his friends and business contacts during his time as a business writer asked him about how they could improve their marriage. Explaining why, he says “these people would see my wife and I together and we actually ‘like’ each other.” Eventually, given the quality of his marriage, his abilities as a writer, and the prompting of his wife, Husband-ry 101 would come to be.

The current book is the second addition of Husbandry 101, and its chief distinguishing characteristic from the first book is the addition of more research on marriage in America. Michael has heard from wives of several other countries that in their opinion marriage in America “is not that far off from marriage in their country psychologically.” The additional research on American marriages should be of some use to those of us who want to train our American hubbies a little bit more.

Michael McCann has a BBA in Marketing from Baylor University (Waco, TX) and MBA from Texas A&M (Corpus Christi, TX). With over 25 years of writing experience and 8 years of wife interviews behind him, he is an expert in the field of marital communications. He lives in The Woodlands, Texas with his wife. He has been happily married for 24 years and is extremely proud of his 31-year-old stepson.

Please visit Michael’s humurous and enjoyable website at husband-ry.com.  You can contact Cheryl for information on Michael’s availability and appearances:
