Meet Cathy Christen
Today’s woman was raised in a low-income family and as a child believed money was bad. However, as she grew into a young woman, she found earning money was easy for her. But holding on to it was a different story. It seemed to just disappear! When her accountant pointed out that she had spent $80,000 in the previous year on eating out, she was shocked and felt sick to her stomach. She knew she had to change. As she searched for answers, she discovered more money meant more influence and impact…in fact, lots more. And she wanted these. So, this new desire became her catalyst for change. She started to use her money differently. Instead of fine dining, she helped children find direction and women to be entrepreneurs. And it was from this place of giving that her story to greatness began to unfold. It is my pleasure to introduce you to Cathy Christen.

Meet Casandra Henriquez
This woman was moved toward greatness by a 3 year old who wanted to have a birthday party. This intuitive love coach and matchmaker already had a mission that was important and fulfilling but when she realized her child did not have what she needed to feel special and accepted, she became a mom on a mission. Why had it taken so long to address the need of a 3 year old, she wondered to herself. And it was in this question that she found a strong desire to not only impact her child but all the children to follow. The path to greatness had begun. It is my pleasure to introduce you to Dr. Casandra Henriquez, aka Coach Cass.

Meet Lisa Copeland
Today’s woman had a powerful start in life by being raised by two successful parent role models. But they were only the beginning of her journey to greatness. As a young woman, she decided to play BIG in the business world and was not afraid to go against the norm to achieve her goals. And, before she knew it, she was deemed a trailblazer in male dominated business spaces like the automotive industry. But with each male dominated arena she navigated, she learned a hard fact – the world owed her nothing – and success would only be hers if she was willing to fight for it. It is my pleasure to introduce Lisa Copeland.

Meet Rita Davenport
This woman often wished she had more talent, more intelligence and was better looking. But she quickly learned that she had more than enough of all three of these. And the success she would claim throughout her life was more than she could have ever imagined. From award winning TV shows to best-selling books to successful company ventures, it appeared to others that she had it all and that she couldn’t have ever lacked anything. But her road has not always been easy and her journey to greatness has been full of lessons that she generously shares with others today. It is my pleasure to introduce Rita Davenport.
